[color=#212121][size=medium]I want to write data to the DW1000 OTP memory. I looked at the manual and tried to use the source code provided in the OTP memory to write to it, but it seems to not work properly. Even if I reset the device, I want to set the address to the device with the data in the OTP I wrote earlier. I would appreciate if you can find out which part to look at or if there is an example function provided by RTLS F / W version 1.05 or 3.11 version.[/size][/color]
[color=#222222][size=large]Hi[/size][/color]
[size=large][color=#222222]Our API has functions for OTP reads and writes and verify. See deca_device.c in our example programs. [/color][/size]

[color=#222222][size=large]The User manual explains this process and what is required. For example, one should increase the supply voltage to the VDDIOA input for the OTP write.[/size][/color]

We have a PCB design incorporating a DW1000 which I’d like to program an EUI64, XTALT, and antenna delay to the OTP. It does not have an external way to drive the VDDIO (or VDDIOA) to 3.8V though (currently 3.3V). This says “optimal programming” requires this. Does this mean if we don’t drive the VDDIOA line to the higher voltage it may still work?
How is this normally recommended? Does Decawave recommend exposing a contact for this line for a POGO contact board (or similar) which will only be used during manufacturing “burn in” of EUI64, etc?
What happens if I don’t drive these lines? Will OTP programming just not execute at all, or do I risk actually ruining the OTP memory?
I’ve never had a problem programming the OTP using 3.3V. Maybe I’ve just been lucky but it has worked fine for ~20 parts purchased over a long enough time that they should be from at least three different batches of chip.
Hearing this, my guess is that it’s not an issue most of the time, but perhaps on a marginal DW1000 OTP, the 3.3V could potentially not get enough charge on the gates to actually program the flash to the desired level.
I actually haven’t gotten around to trying it myself yet.
Andy, I have finally gotten around to testing this with the base 3.3V on a DW1000. The OTP programming procedure doesn’t appear to work with this.
I am about to rig something up to allow me to apply 3.8V to the VDDIO pin on the DW1000 to see if my firmware procedure works. Will let this thread know how that goes afterwards.
Hi Leo,
thanks for your reply. Indeed lowering the spi speed during otp operation did solve the problem.
I also need to mention that otp read operation needs slower spi clock as well.
Thanks for your support.
