Hello Team,

I am using Cyclone Max to partition the chip memory of Freescale K10 (MK10DX256VLQ10). But I am not able to do this. Can you support?

I am executing following steps to do this.
CM C:\PEMicro\cyclone_max\Algorithms_Kinetis\freescale_kdx_pflash_dflash_eeprom.arp
SS; Select my FW build file
RE; Reset
PA 3206; Partition
EM; erase module
BM; blank check module
PM; program module
RE; reset
GO; go

I want to partition memory as
4KB - EEPROM; Subsytem A = 2KB, Subsystem b = 2KB
0kb - dFlash

Regards
Gautam

Hi Johnny,

I am doing this as suggested in that link.

In this case, 
EESPLIT = 2 or 3
EEESIZE = 2
DEPART = 6 or 8

So, argument for PA (partition) command can anyone of the following
0x2208
0x2206
0x3208
0x3206

I tried all this combinations. But no success yet.
The loaded FW does not seem to work.

Gautam

Gautam,

I am still looking in the issue. Sorry about the delay.

Did you update to the latest Cyclone Max software and firmware? If you look on the second line of the Cyclone LCD screen, it should say 7.85.

If it doesn't please update your software.

Hi Johnny

My current version is 7.84.

Please check this.

Gautam,

I just noticed that you have the RE command right before the PA. YOu should not reset the part because you will lose the algorithm code that has been downloaded into RAM.

Please try the following instead and let me know if it works:

CM C:\PEMicro\cyclone_max\Algorithms_Kinetis\freescale_kdx_pflash_dflash_eeprom.arp

SS; Select my FW build file

PA 3206; Partition

EM; erase module

BM; blank check module

PM; program module
