TMS570LS1227: Enquiry : USB Programming Tool

Part Number: TMS570LS1227


Good afternoon,

Over the past few months I have been writing some code and testing it on a TMS570 Launchpad.

Next week some of our custom PCBs will turn up, with a TMS570LS1227 and a JTAG header, but no USB to JTAG emulator.

I would like to know what programming & debugging tools are available for Hercules microcontrollers, that can interface directly with my laptop through USB and with the uC through JTAG.

Would this do the job?

Thanks a million,

Sofia

    Hi Sofia,

    The part you linked to is one of several that will support Hercules devices. The important thing is if the emulator has the correct connector configuration or has the appropriate adapters to accommodate the device pins. Generally, Hercules requires either the legacy TI 14-pin adapter or the TI XDS110 adapter. The new XDS110 stand alone emulator you linked to has the CTI-20 pin connector by default but comes with several adapters that can be used with Hercules.

    For a larger summary list of supported emulators check here: www.ti.com/.../tools-software.page

    Thanks Chuck.

    I see that the XDS100V3 is not listed as compatible, however I can see here (page 12) www.ti.com/.../sprt285f.pdf that the XDS100V3 is compatible with Arm Cortex Devices. Dies that include the TMS570?

    Thanks in advance,

    Sofia

    Hi Sofia,

    I see the same in the posted document but I am not familiar with it. It may be as simple as the CCS drivers are not available or it simply has not been validated with Hercules. Since I have not used it or heard of anyone using it, I cannot recommend it. With that stated, you are welcome to give it a try and post your experiences here. However, our ability to help if you run into any issues will be very limited.
