test with dspic33fj128gp804: does not work [abandoned]

[darkeagle]

Hi,
I'm testing with the above pic.
When I try to send the firmware from the GUI, the GUI at a randomly percentage send "time out" and stop working. Sometimes (very rarely) the GUI complete the downloading and the firmware work.
But I cannot reupdate.

The above information I think confim that the boot loader assembly firmware is configured ok but to better clarify I made these modifications:

In the file settings.inc

Code:

.equ __33FJ128GP804,         1
.equiv     FCY,                 10015000

.equiv    USE_UART1,        1            
.equiv     BAUDRATE,             115200
.equiv    USE_BRGH,            1

configurations fuses:

Code:

config     __FOSCSEL,     FNOSC_FRCPLL
config     __FOSC,     FCKSM_CSDCMD & OSCIOFNC_ON  & POSCMD_NONE & IOL1WAY_OFF
config    __FWDT,        FWDTEN_OFF & WINDIS_OFF    
config    __FPOR,        ALTI2C_OFF & FPWRT_PWR128
config    __FICD,        ICS_PGD2 & JTAGEN_OFF

Also I modified the file ds30loader.s :

Code:

;------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; User specific entry code go here, see also user exit code section at end of file
;------------------------------------------------------------------------------
        
        mov        W0, WTEMP1        ;xxx
        mov        W1, WTEMP2        ;xxx
        
        ;PLLFBDbits.PLLDIV = 85;  //M=87
        mov #85,w1
        mov w1,PLLFBD

        ;CLKDIVbits.PLLPRE = 2;    //N1=4
        ;CLKDIVbits.PLLPOST = 3;   //N2=8  - FCK=7.37M* (87/8*4) = 20.03Mhz
        mov #0b11000011000010,w1
        mov w1,CLKDIV

                bset AD1PCFGL,#PCFG12     ;AD1PCFGLbits.PCFG12=1;
                bclr TRISB,#TRISB13 ;TRISBbits.TRISB13=0; //B13 è un output
                bset TRISB,#TRISB12  ;TRISBbits.TRISB12=1; //B12 è un input

                ;RPINR18bits.U1RXR=0b01100; //PIN U1RX mapped on RP12
                mov #0b1111111100000000,w0 ;
                mov RPINR18,w1
                and w1,w0,w1 ;w1=w1 && w0
                mov #0b0000000000001100,w0 ;U1RXR -> LSB
                ior w1,w0,w1 ;w1=w1 || w0  
                mov w1,RPINR18
                                
                ;RPOR6bits.RP13R=0b00011; //PIN RP13 mapped on U1TX  
                mov #0b0000000011111111,w0
                mov RPOR6,w1
                and w1,w0,w1 ;w1=w1 && w0
                mov #0b0000001100000000,w0  ;RP13R -> MSB
                ior w1,w0,w1  ;w1=w1 || w0
                mov w1,RPOR6

                ;U1ModeBits.RTSMD=1
                bset U1MODE,#RTSMD
                
        .endif          

        ; restore W0 e W1
        mov        WTEMP1,W0    ;xxx
        mov        WTEMP2,W1  ;xxx

But the firmware does not work ever.

Also, very very strange, if I change the baudrate to 38400 in settings.inc the firmware does not work never...
I think there is some bug in the uart part or in the flash write part of the firmware for this dspic.

Thanks for any kind of support.

Hi,
Thank you for posting here. First of all I suggest you try without PLL and baudrate set to 9600.
fcy=3685000
FOSCSEL=FNOSC_FRC

I just tried this with the following configuration and it worked fine. The downloaded application
ran fine and the bootloader could be used after a reset again.
