Posted on March 10, 2017 at 15:52Hi, is it possible to lock out debugger access after programming the DCF record in the UTEST memory region?I am using the SPC570S40E1 micro and the Lauterbach debugger. After programming a DCF record incorrectly, I am getting a 'debug port fail' error when entering these commands: �SYStem.DETECT CPU� or �SYStem.Up�. How do I go about unlocking the device?Thanks#censored #spc570s40e1 #dcf

Posted on January 22, 2017 at 06:58Hello,  I configured in enhanced mode for system clock generation, our input clock is 40Mhz external crystal and need to generate 150Mhz  system clock. Since hardware is not supported to check CLKOUT pin for system clock, we configured SCK clock for calculating system clock. In below code used as provided by ST, but we facing a problem in free running the code ( debug port fail) while debugging the code in TRACE32.For below configuration, code is running some exceptional condition. No system clock generation.FMPLL.ESYNCR2.R = 0x00000001;FMPLL.ESYNCR1.R = 0xF005002Dwhile (FMPLL.SYNSR.B.LOCK != 1) {}; /* Wait for FMPLL to LOCK */ FMPLL.ESYNCR2.R = 0x00000000;NOTE: For above configuration the parameters values EPREDIV, ERFD and EMFD is not satisfying for 150Mhz system clock generation if we substitute in enhanced mode formula. Im confused!

Posted on March 13, 2017 at 09:58Hi all,I'm new to the enviroment so I'm sorry to be so newbie.Last Friday I was using a test application to get started and at the first attempt i could flash the program and everything was fine. Now I open SPC5Sudio and I find errors that there weren't 'Unresolved Inclusion 'components.h'' and the same with all the libraries that i'm using ('pwm_lld_cfg.h', 'spi_lld_cfg.h', 'pit_lld_cfg.h', 'can_lld_cfg.h').I checked in the SPC5 settings to look for the libraries inclusion and there aren't so does someone know where I can find them???Thanks a lot.Daniele.#pwm #can #spi #libreries

Posted on March 03, 2017 at 21:52 Hi, I amtrying to setup the clocks/PLL on the SPC570S40E1 microcontroller.I would like use the PLL0 as the system clock. Here is my configuration: AC3 SC -> 16Mhz IRSOC AC2 SC -> PLL1 PLL0 Settings: PREDIV -> 2 MFD -> 80 RFDPHI -> 10 RFDPHI1 -> 10 PLL1 Settings: MFD ->18 RFDPHI ->8 With the above settings, I get the following clkrates. Here is my initialization code. Its getting stuck in the while loop waiting for PLL0 to lock. I am following the PLLs initializationprocedure that is recommended in the reference manual.

Posted on March 09, 2017 at 10:44Hi,Refer to reference manual RM0029 Page1362, while using eSCI as UART mode,1) for SCI data register eSCI_DR,what's meaning for two lines below 15:0(R), 0:15(W)?2) while bit sequence D0->D7(10101101) received on UART_RXD line (bit order is D0->D7), how datastored in eSCI_DR register?a) eSCI_DR[7:0] = D[0:7](10101101)b)  eSCI_DR[7:0] = D[7:0](10110101)which one is correct,why?Thanks in advanced.#esci

Posted on March 02, 2017 at 15:33I have an SPC5-UDESTK JTAG adapter here, which I am using with UDE.Does the adapter source it's own voltage, or do I need to feed voltage from the target back to it? If so, which pin is used?Thanks

Posted on March 02, 2017 at 14:27Hello,I am working with the SPC58EC80E1 and cannot find a datasheet for this product.Most urgently, I would like the pin out of the device in TQFP64.Can anyone point to where I could get this?Thanks,Andrew

Posted on March 09, 2017 at 08:14hello i am working on Project with a SPC560D40 an SPC5 Studio. I'm trying to generate PWM-Signals on the Pins RA0 to RA5. When I look in the eMIOs Settings of the SPC560Dxx HAL Driver Component, I can only activate eMIOs group 0 (Channel 9..15) or Group1 (Channels 17..23) but RA0 to RA5 should be Channel 0..5. For these Channels I can only activate ICU drivers.

Posted on February 28, 2017 at 11:42Hi All,Appreciate your time and help.i am using the SPC560B-DIS development board with the spc5studio IDE.all of a sudden when i tried to flash the development board i got an error in the log saying : Error, Core::PpcJtagTargIntf, Connection to target lost !i suspected a loose cable to be the culprit but then the same cable works perfectly fine with the other EVM(evaluation board).Then i also checked the mini usb power/debug female port connector on the board which is fine as well.(did not see any physical damage on it attached is the image below).i have attached my boards log file from the UDE when i got the board connection lost error.

Posted on March 07, 2017 at 18:57Hi,I've tested 'SPC563Mxx_RLA CAN Test Application for Discovery' avaible on SPCStudio 5.0.0. This application uses Can loopback to send to itself and receive CAN messages. How can I edit the code in order to create a communication between two same boards? Is CAN_A or CAN_C terminals enabled for this purpose or should I enable them manually in pinMap Wizard? To which teminal is associated CAND1 class? I've tried to write a code but it doesn't work.Thanks a lot.Best regards.MP.#can #spc563m

Posted on March 02, 2017 at 16:52There don't seem to be any example projects or pin wizards for this board, although I can see it in some of the .c/.h files with the install. I have just updated SPC5-STUDIO so was expecting to see support.Are there pin wizards available for these devices?

Posted on February 28, 2017 at 15:47Hi, when I create a new project in SPC5 studio, its not showing me with the component initialization options. It does not present me with any options for choosing the microcontroller, configuring the clocks, etc. Please see the attached picture(SPC5)When I select the microcontroller using the pin map wizard, I am able to configure pins, but it does not seem to be generating any application code.  Please see the attached picture( SPC5_pinmap)Also, what is the latest released version of SPC5 studio? I have seen post here mentioning the version 5.2.3 being available. My application is still on version 5.0. Its showing 'no updates found in the available software sites' when checking for updates.#spc5-studio

Posted on February 27, 2017 at 10:31I'm using SPC5Studio 5.2.2 and got a notification about available updates.

Posted on February 22, 2017 at 07:00Hi Team,I am using SPC560b-Discover board IDE-SPC5 Studio, version: 5.2.1I want to find if any memory corruptions in Flash(dataFlash or CodeFlash) and RAM.Can you please help me to find the ways of memory corrupt happened,As i know there will be one stranded  way to find is enable ECC or by default it will be enabled,If ECC is only the way,how to enable the ECC in SPC560B family MCUs,If ECC is enabled how we will come to know there is memory corruption is happened.---Thanks in advance,Thanks & Regards,Mujeeb Shaik. 

Posted on February 16, 2017 at 11:57Hello everyone,I'm working with a SPC56EL60L3 and SPC5Studio.I noticed, sometimes my application got stuck and I found out, using the debugger, that the cause was an unhandled exception being triggered. Since it happens randomly (or, at least, I don't have identified any patterns, yet), I can't figure out what the cause is. Looking at the documentation it is not clear to me what the cause for unhandled exception could be. Can anyone share some details on this?Thank you.Alessandro

Posted on February 10, 2017 at 05:46Hi, we are using Spc5 studio as IDE, UDE STK - 4.8 as Debugger.Initially we flashed, debugged and observed output, After that we modified the code and flashed, Disconnected target connection. Then after we are trying to flash we are getting the following error messages and unable to flash.we checked JTAG cable and Target power these are fine, Tried PC restart also still the same status. Help us to where we can check Target's boot, PLL and Censorship password configuration, Processor RESET state.  Please look into this issue ASAP and let us know if we have to do anything else to flas

Posted on February 14, 2017 at 10:39Hello,Our application on the SPC560P44L3 switches to HALT0 mode in the idle loop for power saving. The PIT is configured to wakeup the CPU every msec for handling timers, which works just fine.Now I'd like to configure the free running STM for highres time keeping, but it seems that during HALT0 state the STM counter does not increment.Unfortunately I'm not able to provide a small test program, as the logic for event handling, timers and power saving is scattered throughout the project. Basically what I do to reproduce this is: Program the PIT for 1Khz timer interruptsRead STM timer -> t1Wait for interrupts by doing SetRunMode(SPC5_RUNMODE_HALT0)Read STM timer -> t2System clock is set to 16MHz, STM divider to 1, so I'd expect (t2-t1) to be 16e6/1000 = 16e3. Instead, the number is much smaller and varies. If however I change the line w

Posted on February 08, 2017 at 14:18 Hello, I am trying to use C++ in the SPC560Bxx mcu using SPC5 Studio and the free gcc vle toolchain (4.9.2). However, it looks like constructors aren't called as I expected. In the following example, I expect to end up in the first case of the if statement, but I end up in the else case. class Foo { public: int val; Foo() { val = 42; } void do_something() { if (val == 42) { printf('I expect to end up here'); } else { printf('But I end up here'); } } }; static Foo myObject; // this ought to call the Foo's constructor int main(void) { ... myObject.do_something();�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�? ... }�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?

Posted on February 09, 2017 at 16:15Hi,I'm having problems with the SWT generating an interrupt before going through reset on the SPC560P44L3ITR bit is enabled, and when I trigger the watchdog I see the TIF bit switch on after the first timeout, and after the second timeout the CPU is reset, as expected.Vector28 is not called when TIF goes active, however. Do I need to configure anything else in addition to the ITR bit to get this to work?Thanks,

Posted on February 07, 2017 at 14:41 Title Document: ChibiCubeHello to everyone, I am Rocco Marco and I am going to introduce ChibiCube v2.0.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L2IVJro_tqs ChibiCube is a project realized by two trainees thanks to the technological support and knowledge offered by ST. This project is a led matrix 8x8x8. Each led can be individually addressed and can have up to 256 intensity levels.   ChibiCube 2.0 could be drived by both 'SPC560D discovery board' 'STM32F3 discovery board'. In order to do this we have made another PCB named ChibiAdapter. I have attached schematics and gerber of both the PCBS. About the software: ChibiCube is 'animated' by ChibiOS/RT and a particular graphic library
