Tutorials for Profiling DSP Code on CCS 4

GeoK

Are there any tutorials or user guides available for profiling / optimizing C64+ DSP code using CCS 4? I'm writing code for the 6455.

Thanks.

Hi,

The optimization process is mostly done using techniques of the compiler and linker, therefore some interesting references can be found in the page below:

http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Optimization_Techniques_for_the_TI_C6000_Compiler

Pay special attention to the application note Hand-Tuning Loops and Control Code on the TMS320C6000

Within CCS, some good tips can be obtained in both pages below. The Profiling section on the first page is a guide that shows how to setup the profiler within the IDE. The second page contains a more general approach for debugging in CCSv4 - including the different types of breakpoints used for profiling.

Hope this helps,
