Re: little endian software migrate to tms570

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TMS570LS20216

Hello,

In the past we where using the  TMS320C28xxx family of DSP which works in little endian and now we are switching to the TMS570LS20216.  We have a lot of code that we would like to reuse. Is your previous comment still valid for this device, it is not possible to make it run in little endian?

    Hi Martin,

    Noticed that we hadn't answered your question.  The RM48x family is very similar to the TMS570 family but operates in Little Endian and, like the 570, not switchable to the alternate Endian.

    Hi Martin,

    First of all sorry for the delayed reply. The device TMS570LS20216 is big endian only device and the code you have needs to be recompiled for executing it on this target. We have a device RM48x which is little indian and has all the h/w peripherals supported on TMS570LS20216. You may consider one of the above approach. Let me know if this answers your question.

    An update ... we have received the R4 dsplib from ARM and are in the process of evaluating it and to make it easy to use and understand the benefits.  This effort will require a few more weeks of work.  Look for a public posting of this library in the March 2012 timeframe.
