TMS570LS0914: Emulator needed for off-target unit testing

Part Number: TMS570LS0914
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TMS570LS1227,

Hello,

I am using a TMS570LS0914 board and I'm trying to setup an off-target unit testing environment, so I can automatize unit testing of my application without the need to connect a board (n.b. I'd need to do the same for boards TMS570LS043x and TMS570LS1227).

I'm currently using Code Composer Studio version 10.0.0.00010.

Where can I get the emulator for these boards? Does CCS v10 supports it ?

Regards,

Rodo.

    what do you mean by "without the need to connect a board"?

    You can use xds100V2/v3, xds110, and xds2x. All those emulators support TMS570, and are supported by CCS V10.

  • Hello,

    Thank you for your reply.

    As you must know, unit testing can be done:

    • on-target - where the code is compiled with some specific code, loaded and executed in the target, and results gotten back through the debugger (xds110 in my case)
    • off-target - where the code is compiled and executed on the development computer using an emulator (hence, without the need to connect a board)

    But it came to my understanding that CCS does not support the emulator for the chip I'm using since CCS version 5. Unfortunately CCS version 5 can't be installed on a windows 10 (or so it tells me when I try). So I'm looking for solutions !

  • The CCS doesn't support simulator for Hercules devices.
