About tms320F240 cpu

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TMS320F28335

I  want to  build  tms320f240 project, but   can't  find   the  tms320f240 cpu  on  ccs5.5 , just  have  f28x dsp on  c2000,   what ccs  version  have  this  cpu ?  can  you  give  me   the  download  address? thanks  very much.

  • Hi,

    You can download the development tools from this website below:

    ( Please note that this forum is for devices such as OMAP-L13x, AM1x and C674x. Please post your further query on

    )

  • Moved this thread over C2000 forum. Thank you.
  • Chao,

         TI announced "End-of-Life (EOL) status for F240 devices 4 years back. This device is no more sold/supported. If this is a new project, I strongly urge you to migrate to the c28xx family of devices.

    F240 support is not available in CCS5.x or CCS6.x. It is only available in CCS3.3 and before.

  • thanks very much, I installed ccs3.3, but I just find F240 emulator no F240 simulator boards, can you tell me where to download F240 testcase , and tell me what tms320F28335 and tms320F240 Instruction set difference ? thanks .
  • Chao,

    As Hareesh said, the F240 devices were end-of-life'd several years ago.  There really is no support for them anymore.  I don't believe there ever was a C24x simulator in Code Composer Studio.  I looked at my installation of CCSv3.3 and there is no C24x or C2xx simulator.  Even if there was a simulator in an even older version of CCS, it would only have simulated the CPU core (no peripherals).  You can do the same thing with actual hardware if you already have a board  (e.g., doing sustaining engineering on some existing product).  If you don't already have a board, you shouldn't be using F240.  Again, this product is no longer available and there is no support for it.

    Appendices B, C, and D of the C28x CPU User's Guide SPRU430F contains information on C24x to C28x migration and instruction differences.  My personal opinion is that trying to run C24x assembly code on the C28x is not the way to migrate.  I would just re-write the C24x code in C and run it on the C28x like that.  If you have an ultra time critical function, maybe re-write just that one in assembly on the C28x.

    Regards,

    David
