Cannot upload example1_edge_test to my EDGE2

Development Boards
1

Hey All

I believe I have installed everything needed to be able to develop for the EDGE2 board on my Mac. I use the 2.0.0 version of the SDK and connect using the CH340C serial breakout board. I try to build and upload the example1_edge_test project1 and have changed the Makefile with the name of the serial port for the breakout board.

When executing the command make bootload, the following error is displayed (error part indicated in red):

Can anybody help?

Hi John,

Some parts of the example1_edge_test project will work on the Edge2 board but not all of them. While you could use the process you described it would be much better to follow the getting started instructions at this repo:

https://github.com/sparkfun/AmbiqSuiteSDK

if you must use the 2.0.0 release of the SDK then you could use the BSP repo individually as well:

https://github.com/sparkfun/SparkFun_Ap … Suite_BSPs

And finally if you really must use the process described above you will have to change out the uploader tool. This is because the new tool has slightly modified functions on the flow control lines of the USB-serial converter. You can find that tool in the common/tools_sfe/ambiq/ambiq_bin2board.py python script (that script has combined the three separate calls above into one big script for convenience…)

Let us know if you keep having trouble :slight_smile:
