SPRUIX0D February 2021 – August 2021
Applicable EVM Revisions: E2
Issue Description: On some EVM, the embedded XDS110 (U59) has been shown to fail initial target connection to AM64x target in CCS after first EVM and XDS110 power cycle. No problem exists when using an attached, external emulator over the CTI20 header (J25).
This failure mode can be encountered by following the steps below:
Workaround 1: After the connection issue is encountered, users can unplug the USB host connection to the XDS110 emulator through USB port (J28) and then plugin the USB cable again. This power cycles the XDS110 and will clear up the connection error.
Workaround 2: After the connection issue is encountered, users can toggle TRSTSN through the XDS110 debug command-line utility xds110reset found in the CCS XDS110 utility directory.
In the Windows OS installation, for a default installation of CCS version 10.11, this tool is found in the directory C:\ti\ccs1011\ccs\ccs_base\common\uscif\xds110>
This command can be executed on the Windows command prompt/terminal when the embedded XDS110 is powered on and connected to the host PC. A similar tool is available under the Linux OS install of CCS.
