Hello,

Does there exist any chance to get contact (inside contacts in TI) to someone who can can support us in designing Flash programming algorithm for TMS470 devices to our device programmers?

Best regards,

Frantisek,

Are you looking for a Flash API library which enables users to erase/program Flash during runtime or a stand alone programming tool? Some of the device on the list is very old. I could not find the datasheets from ti.com. Would you please pass the datasheets for me to check ?

Thanks and regards,

Zhaohong

Zhaohong,

We're looking for API (or specification) for stand alone programming. Our customers want program devices "off line" in our dev. programmers. Of course we'll not support programming of old devices, if the devices are not supported by TI - they could not be available in broad market and they can not be used for mass production ...

Best regards,

Frantisek

Frantisek,

I did some internal search. Those devices are not supported in the general markets. Ti does not recommend those devices for new designs.

Thanks and regards,

Zhaohong

Zhaohong,

Our customer (who asked support) is programming center (they program chips for third parties). So may be our customer is going to program chips for customer who already uses devices in design.

Can you provide any documentation for these devices or we'll close this cause?

Best regards,

Frantisek
