Other Parts Discussed in Thread: SYSBIOS

Hello CCS experts

I am looking at migrating from CCS v5.2 to v6.

The device target is C6424, custom platform.

I've installed CCS v6 and also upgraded to
- bios_6_41_00_26
- uia_2_00_01_34

From what I've gathered, XDC is "core" only, without any targets or platform support.

Is there a place once can download these separately? Or point to them from other versions?

Is it only acquired via installing the TI-RTOS bundle?

Thanks!

Hi,

You can download SYSBIOS and older versions of UIA separately - check the links below:

The TI-RTOS is an updated package that contains SYSBIOS, UIA and other additional components.

Hope this helps,

Rafael

W.R.T bios_6_41: OK, thanks! I'll take a closer look.

@Rafael:

Thanks! Per my previous post, I did install them as you mentioned

My initial impression about TI-RTOS before posting this question was: as a meta-bundle, it seems to filter out a lot of things....

In my case, if I want the latest and greatest, per http://downloads.ti.com/dsps/dsps_public_sw/sdo_sb/targetcontent/tirtos/index.html , I can only consider 2.00.01.23 for C6x.

Looking at the release notes for the same, @ http://downloads.ti.com/dsps/dsps_public_sw/sdo_sb/targetcontent/tirtos/2_00_01_23/exports/tirtos_2_00_01_23_release_notes.html , C64x is not a supported target.

Given that we are using an older part (C6424), I hope to be able to still get to the latest supported components by a mix-match/hand-pick strategy...
