Make a new SD card for the ADRV9002 SDK

Hi Charly. We'll look into this and get back to you soon with an answer. Thanks!

Hi Charly,

There should be 2 SD cards in the kit you have. Do you not have 2? It's also advisable to backup the SD card image in some way if you can, like on your laptop or PC. Given the nature of the contents of the SD card there's quite a lot of red tape to go through before we can make the image publicly available, and as such it currently isn't publicly available.

If you don't have the spare SD card, or any other saved copy of the image, then we may need to figure out some other solution.

Thanks,

Oisín.

The prototyping SD card image (the one without the TES label) has a downloadable image here: https://wiki.analog.com/resources/tools-software/linux-software/embedded_arm_images Only 2019 R1 supports ADRV9002.

Hi Travis,

I guess you are talking about the ZCU102 / ADRV9002 image correct? not the TES GUI that the NI team put together.

Charly

Correct. I don't believe the TES SD image has been posted yet.

Hi Charly,

A step-by-step guide on how to re-image an SD card for your FPGA has been posted here:

Hi, It doesn't look like there no image for ZC706 / ADRV9002 and A10Soc / ADRV9002.

Hi tmoon,

Can you be more specific with your response? Our Software Team is aware of certain issues with the SD card image download and are working to fix them. I'd like to confirm that the issue you're having is one that they are currently working to fix.

Thanks,

Oisín.

The original image that was developed by the product line team is for the ZC706 and ADRV9002.

The reason it says ADRV9001 is to indicate that it is for the ADRV9002 and ADRV9003.

Hi all,

The SD card image download should now be working according to the SW team. Give it a try again and if it fails please respond below.

Thanks,

Oisín.

Hi! May you please confirm that the SD-CARD release found on ADI's transceiver evaluation software page is for the ZC706 and not the ZCU102? The table listed in ADRV9002 quick start guide states that ZCU102 is supported, and ZC706 is still work-in-progress. The text describing the SD-CARD zip file does not state the supported carrier board(s).

There are two GUI flavors that were released with the ADRV9002.

One that uses a Linux based interface similar to a lot of our older RF transceivers and that is currently working with the ZCU102. (this is the one you show here)

The other is the one that was developed by the ADRV9002 team and that is only working with the ZC706.

That is the one shown above.

I hope this answers your question.

Thanks

Charly

This answers the question. Thanks!

hi charly,

can u provide the latest sd card image.zip location url.

i don't want to download sd image using adrv9001 disk image utility setup.

My problem is , my workstation and internet connection are different.

Please help me to download latest sd image.zip from internet pc and flash it in sd card from workstation.

Hi Yasin,

I'm afraid this is not a service we provide. It is however possible to download the SD card image using our imaging software and then write it manually to an SD card, so if needed you could download the image on a separate machine and compress and email it to the workstation PC.

Best Regards,

Hi,

I downloaded the "adrv9001_legacy_sdcard.zip" and manually kept in Local/Temp directory as mentioned and clicked format sd card.

It opened the disk imager and gave the path Local/Temp/**sdcard**.zip . and then, device point to sdcard.

The problem is when i click write to device, it throughs error as "Unable to init write to device. End of Central Directory record could not be found".

Can u explain what is this error and why i am unable to write to device.

Hi Yasin,

It sounds like most of what you're doing is correct, but there may be an issue with the .zip file itself. A quick google of your error message brought me to this forum:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/20960403/end-of-central-directory-record-could-not-be-found

It's worth a look for you, it does highlight a few common causes of these errors, such as permissions, incomplete files or corrupted compressions. Most of these issues should be solvable. 

Let me know if this gets you anywhere.

Best Regards,

Oisín.
