  • [SOLVED] How to load and run a binary file by using J-Link before going to debug ?

    Hello

    We are using SEEGER embedded studio to developing our application.
    Now we need to load and run a binary file from J-link before going to debug mode.
    Ex: Downloading project into DDR memory which involves DDR initialization program to run separately before project
    download to DDR. Downloading and executing start up code(bin/elf/hex) to initialize DDR memory by using J-link and
    return control to JTAG to continue project download.
    My Processor is: STM32MP157AAA3

    Can anyone help in this regard?

    regards

  • Hello,

    Thank you for your inquiry.
    For DDR RAM inits we recommend to use a JLinkScript and the function SetupTarget():

    How to use a JLinkScript in Embedded Studio.:
    wiki.segger.com/J-Link_script_files#Embedded_Studio


    The image that you want to program to the DDR RAM you can set in ES via project options under Debug > Loader > Additional Load File[0]


    If everything is set up correctly J-Link will init the DDR RAM after connection and ES will download the DDR image to the corresponding memory location and then your application.

    Best regards,
    Nino
