CCS/TMS570LC4357: In CCS v10: Cannot see any SDK/ sample code for TMS570xxx

v01d

Part Number: TMS570LC4357
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: HALCOGEN

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

I tried checking if I can install any SDK or sample code through CCS AppCenter and Resource Explorer, and I found absolutely nothing for anything with TMS570 MCU in it..

When installing CCS, there was option to select the Safety MCUs, and Hercules from memory, which I did.. Yet nothing / no Hercules under Resource Explorer / Kits and Boards.

Not available? Or have to be installed outside of CCS?

Hello,

You can find some example here:

https://git.ti.com/hercules_examples.

The HALCoGen includes some good examples under help menu.

Hi,

CCS (code composer studio) is an integrated development environment (IDE) that supports TI's Microcontroller and Embedded Processors.

HALCOGen is a code generation tool. It allows users to generate hardware abstraction layer device drivers for Hercules™ microcontrollers. It provides a GUI that allows the user to configure peripherals, interrupts, clocks, and other Hercules microcontroller parameters. Once the Hercules device is configured, the user can generate peripheral initialization and driver code. Here is the link for downloading HALCOGen:
