Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TMS320C6678

Hi ,

Am working on the DSPC -8681 Advantech hardware with C6678 .

As this hardware having PCIe slot so I inserted that hardware in my pc with PCIe x8 slot.

Am able to run  some example code on this board like pc to board communication via PCIe.

Finally I decided to write a small code "Hello World" on this DSPC-8681 Board.

But when I was configuring the target config file,I got one doubt,that which emulator I have to select like Black Hawk emulator or spectrum digital becaz here DSPC-8681 is connected to the pc via PCIe communication and no any other jtag is connected with this .....

So please let me know the solution for the given query :

1) What I have to select in emulator option for DSPC-8681 for simple " Hello world" Program execution??

2) What gel file I have to use for this board??

Am using CCSv5.2 in Ubuntu 12.04...

Please give me your reply.

    Studinstru,

    If the board you refer is this one, I don't see any evidence that it has a built-in emulator. It is possible you can only load code to the board but not perform debugging, as the board brochure only shows a software loader but not Code Composer Studio.

    If this board happens to have a built-in emulator, you will have to contact Advantech to provide its drivers dor CCS and software support  - none of our XDS-class emulators have PCIe interface to date. 

    Regards,

    Thanks Desouza for your reply.

    This board  has four TMS320C6678 DSP's.

    If this board is just for running the inbuit application ,then how to debug the problems through CCS on that board.

    In some previous post I came to know from ti guys that we can modify the inbuilt code and debug this on DSPC-8681 ,But I can't  write small code on this DSPC-8681 means just run the application and if the bug is there then leave this as it is .....

    Is it like this ?

    Please do the reply.

    Studinstru,

    Unfortunately I don't know this board in detail. My impression is that this board is designed as a "co-processor" board to perform specific processing activities on a regular PC - thus the software that runs on it may be configurable but not fully programmable.

    In this case I strongly suggest you to check either with the TI person that helped you before or directly with Advantech regarding the options and procedures to perform debugging on this board.

    I am afraid I can't help you further, sorry.

    Regards,

    Rafael
