CCS/PGA900EVM: How to build PGA900 project with CCS v7?

Part Number: PGA900EVM
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: PGA900, USB2ANY,

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hello All,

I am using PGA900EMV development board and Code Composer Studio v7. I want to use XDS200 USB JTAG emulator to program PGA900. Problem I have I can't build project from existing code example ( PGA900FirmwareGeneric-1p5)  which is was build using CCS v5. PGA900 Software Quick Start Guide (SLDU015A) doesn't help me. 

Any suggestions how to build project using CCS v7? Where to get CCS v6?

Best Regards,

Irmantas 

  • Hi Irmantas,

    Previous versions of CCS can be downloaded here:

    The main issue is usually related to using a version of the ARM compiler that is too far removed from the original version. In the software guide, the compiler version is 5.2.6. To download this version you must go to "Help" -> "Install new software".

    Select "All available sites" in the "Work with:" field. Deselect "Show only the latest versions of available software" and type "cgt" in the search field. Follow the screenshot below and install 5.2.6 or up to 5.2.9. You must then follow the steps in the software user's guide to copy the files to the correct folders.

  • Hello Scott,

    Thank you for answer.

    Using older version (CCS v6)  is fine for product evaluation, but not for new designs. 

    I have started CCS v7 by fallowing Quick start guide (SLDU015A).  I am using PGA900EVM, XDS200 and USB2ANY boards. 

    Manually created folder in this location : C:\ti\ccsv6\tools\compiler\ ti-cgt-arm_5.2.6\lib\ and copied rtsv6M0_T_le_eabi.lib file. Compiled project successfully but I can't connect to target. I have errors:

    Cortex_M0_0: Can't Run Target CPU: (Error -1268 @ 0x1080001) Device is locked up in Hard Fault or in NMI. Reset the device, and retry the operation. If error persists, confirm configuration, power-cycle the board, and /or try more reliable JTAG settings (e.g. lower TCLK). (Emulation package 7.0.188.0)

     

    Why I am getting these errors? How to program PGA900 using CCS v7?

    Best Regards,

  • Hello Scott,

    Just wanted to add...

    Installed CCS v6, fallowed  SLDU015A document until it gave me error that I need a license for XDS200. What kind of license do I need? It is nothing mentioned in  SLDU015A document about license.

  • Hi Irmantas,

    Do not manually create the folder for the arm compiler. If you are using CCSv7 then download the compiler as I described above, and place that lib file in the folder that is created. This will be in the ccsv7 directory, not the ccsv6 directory.

    If you are using CCSv6, you can find the full license here: processors.wiki.ti.com/.../Licensing_-_CCSv6

    For the error connecting to target, power cycling should fix the problem.

    Regards,
