Hello all,
Posting here in case anyone has experience with these particular components - I am out of ideas.
I have purchased a TSA3117B amp/bluetooth board from TinySine (tinyosshop.com), of which the bluetooth board is programmable (AudioB Plus Bluetooth APTX module - containing the CSR64215 chip).
I have purchased the CSR USB SPI Programmer and the IDC-2050 cable to do so.
However I am having massive issues, that is, I can't seem to connect it to the software. The chip cannot be read no matter what I try.
I am using the softwares supplied on the tinyos website which are:
- Bluesuite 2.5.0 (the USB-SPI shows up here but does not connect to chip)
- CSRA64XX and CSRA63XX Tools (the USB-SPI connection does not show up here at all)
I first tried on my Windows 10 laptop with no luck, then watching darieee bluetooth related videos on Youtube (and hearing how temperamental the software is on Windows 10) tried a Windows 7 32 bit install on an old laptop of mine. No success.
I have then gone and downloaded some newer versions of bluesuite and had a go but no luck again.
I have tried to re-load the firmware file from the TinyOSshop site using BlueModify but it can't read the chip either.
The chip goes into red/blue flashing mode when connected to the USB SPI (as it is supposed to) but that's all it does.
I have contacted TinySine via email but am yet to hear back. I am tearing my hair out at this point - doubly so as I just completed the build of a mono bluetooth speaker and I can't use it until I reprogram the chip to output to mono.
I know there are some very smart folks around here who program these things using their own cables / programmers - so if anyone on here is able to assist in any way I would very appreciative.
Thanks in advance.
Patrick
