Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TMS320LF2403A
I have been interested in obtaining the BSDL files for JTAG programming of the Texas Instruments TMS320LF2406A and the TMS320LF2403A.
Initially, JTAG programming of these DSP/MCUs could only be done through the IDE with the use of a JTAG emulation/debugging adapter.
This adapter is no longer available, and the IDE is too cumbersome to use on a production basis.
We have been production programming these parts for many years now, using the SCI interface, which is very slow.
These ICs are still in current production and are in large usage worldwide.
The demand for our products using these parts continues to grow.
I seek to try to do production programming using the much faster JTAG method, just as we already do for our newer products using newer DSP/MCUs.
We have been unable to locate any BSDL file for these parts, whether through TI or elsewhere.
Referring to BSDL files, the webpage www.jtag.com/bsdl-files states: “According the Boundary-scan standard IEEE 1149.1, these files must also be made freely available by the vendors of the IC’s to their customers.”
We have had no luck in obtaining them.
Any help you might provide would be greatly appreciated.
