Simple tutorial problem

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TMS320C6416

Can Someone refer me to a simple sine wave generator problem.

I'm looking for something that I can be able to observe on the oscilloscope,that'll help me get more acquainted with the kit...I'm using a TMS320C6416 by the way..the on board tutorials aren't very helpful since I can see anything on the oscilloscope

Edit:

I'm using an older version,CCS V3.1.In my last post explained why I can't upgrade

  • I will move this to the C6000 forum where the experts there can help you best

  • Hi,

    Thanks for your post.

    I would recommend you to go through this workshop:

    http://www-mmsp.ece.mcgill.ca/Courses/2011-2012/ECSE436A/Tutorial/c60001day.pdf

    http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/TMS320C6x1x_DSP_Integration_Workshop

    There are tutorials available on the web and from TI which will prepare you for the work you will have to do. The DSK6416 kit which comes with CCS v3.3 by default, but please upgrade it to CCS v5.

    http://www.ti.com/tool/tmdsdsk6416

    http://www.ti.com/product/TMS320C6416/technicaldocuments

    To download CCSv5, please refer the below wiki

    Also, there are DSK6416.zip referenced from the Spectrum Digital DSK6416 Support Home

  • thanks for those links very helpful...now am stuck,

    The following message is displayed in the watch window after I've added the gBuffer to the watch window

    identifier not found: gBuffer 

    and I cannot plot anything without this step,plus doesn't seem like I can move forward with the workshop,nd it was really starting to make sense.. any tips on this,really holding me back right now

  • Hi,

    Thanks for your update.

    In my opinion, gBuffer identifier is not found which means, it could n't resolve this symbol. I think, you would have missed to include appropriate include/library file which defines this symbol and so the compiler is searching the available source fiels to check for this symbol in the set path in the project properties of CCS. Kindly ensure to include all search include paths and libary search file paths in the project properties, so that the compiler would not miss to link the symbol in run time but not in compilation. This is why,you are experiencing this error in run time and the identifier could not be found eventhough you break the code at desired place where in which you tried to capture the value of gBuffer symbol.

    Please check the definition of gBuffer symbol and link the appropriate source to resolve this symbol at run time and by the way, you could able to capture this in watch window. I do have a clarification that whether the symbol "gBuffer" is a handle to any structure pointer or any function pointer etc. else, any handle to any callback API function. Kindly walkthrough/review the code appropriate to know exactly the logical functionality of the desired section which you are trying to evaluate.

    Thanks & regards,
