TI Arm compiler question

Hi,

What is the latest version of the TI ARM compiler that should be used?

 

I see 5.2.0 has been released (and a patch to 5.2.1 released, but I can't find it in CCS). But I also see that a planned patch 5.1.10 is planned for the end of January.

 

We recently moved to compiler 5.2.0 and everything works fine under emulation, but when we try to run out of flash the board sits there and is a brick, nothing happens.  If we use 5.1.9 it works fine.  We are using it on the Hercules TMS570 series.

 

Thanks,

David

    It depends on your priorities.  The latest 5.2.x release will have some features that 5.1.x does not.  To see what those features are, see the file README.txt in the root directory of the compiler install directory.  On the other hand, release 5.1.x has been in the field longer and is likely to be more stable.  For more discussion along these lines, please see this wiki article.

    Thanks and regards,
