Hello,
I recently purchased a Development board (TMS470R1A256 ARM) from Sparkfun along with usbScarab (From Kristech). The usbScarab uses the FTD2xx drivers. I wish to download code to the internal flash memory of tms470r1a256. Is it supported by openocd ? If yes, could somebody tell me how it can be done? If any configuration file is required , could you post that as well ? I am able to connect to the micro through telnet, step through it etc.
Thanks in advance,

Writing the internal flash of TMS470 micros isn’t supported yet. In order to support it you’d have to write a flash driver similar to flash/at91sam7.c or flash/str7x.c, implementing the interface defined in flash/flash.h

I am interested in developing the flash driver for tms470r1a256. I haven’t worked with gnu tool chain before. How difficult do you think would it be to develop such a driver? I mean in terms of setting up the tool chain & time to develop ?
Btw. would it be possible to download code on to RAM and run it ? If yes , how do I do it with the current set of h/w and openocd/eclipse/yagarto etc. ?
Regards,

Can I just bump this topic and ask if anybody has developed an OpenOCD driver for writing to the flash memory of a TMS470 chip (TMS470R1A256, specifically) yet?
If not, I guess I’ll just have to write the driver myself :shock:
Having only been programming for a couple of weeks, this is a daunting task so this is my last attempt to see if anything’s been done already…
