Elf to Srec conversion using hex470.

Hello,

I tried converting the elf file generated by Code composer to SREC by two ways :-

1. Used hex470.exe  - --> hex470 -m3 pipt1.elf -o pipt1.abs

The files generated were pipt1.abs, pipt1.m1, pipt1.m2 & pipt1.m3. All these files were 6kb each.

what is the significance of each of them?

Why many files generated when i required only an srec file ?

2. I used

"objcopy -O srec pipt1.elf pipt3.abs" from command prompt and got a single pipt1.abs of size  26kb.

Can you please provide me some insight into why such a difference in the two methods although both are doing the Elf -> Srec conversion.

Thanks in advance,

With Best Regards,

Renjith George
