PCA10059 Different version ?

Gaétan

Hi,

I have make an application for PCA10059, that uploaded with nRF Connect (using embedded USB DFU).

All work normaly on multiple PCA10059 board manufactured on 2018...

Now, I have buy some PCA10059 manufactured on 2019 and after DFU upload, my application don't start on last buyed dongle !

I use SoftDevice S140 v6.1

I join the application HEX file (Start on USB CDC mode) name: RavenGateway

DongleGateway.hex.zip

Is exist different version (software or hardware) of PCA10059 ? All PCA10059 are marked V1.0.0

    Hi,

    There are several versions of the PCA10059 board, but all marked V1.0.0 should be identical. Also, the newer revisions only have minor modifications, so the same firmware should run on all. So I suspect it is something related to the specific dongle you have. Is the programming operation successful? So that it is just your application that does not run, or is there also problems with programming (which uses the preprogrammed USB bootloader)?

    Hi,

    I've done the test on about 10 dongle V1.0.0 2019.12, they all react the same:
    The programming is rigorously the same on both versions of dongle (2018 vs 2019).
    However, after the update, dongle 2018 starts on the application while dongle 2019 does nothing (no USB enumeration, and no LED).
    I join the log file of the 2 updates...

    Hi,

    I am not able to provide any explanation for this. Does this happen even if you try to program a simple application like "blinky"?

    Please note that response times will increase during the Christmas holiday, so I may not be able to get back to you until the beginning of January.

  • 0 in reply to Einar Thorsrud

    Blinky app is OK

    For try to debug, I have uploaded open_bootlader_usb_mbr_pca10059 (from SDK 15.3 and SDK16)  in a pca10056 dev board.

    After...

    I make the firmware update with nRF connect and all is OK.

    What is the bootloader version in PCA10059 from factory ?
    Is it possible to read the version ?
    or Is it possible to update the bootloader with nRF Connect ?

    Regards,

    Found it!

    In the application, UART is initialized but not used... It's OK in 2018 production but generate an UART error on 2019 production !

    WorkAround: comment APP_ERROR_HANDLER() function

     /**@snippet [Handling data from UART] */
      case APP_UART_COMMUNICATION_ERROR:
          NRF_LOG_ERROR("Communication error occurred while handling UART.");
          //APP_ERROR_HANDLER(p_event->data.error_communication);
          break;

      case APP_UART_FIFO_ERROR:
          NRF_LOG_ERROR("Error occurred in FIFO module used by UART.");
          //APP_ERROR_HANDLER(p_event->data.error_code);
          break;
