TMS320F2800137: How to merge the two C2000 Bin files?

Part Number: TMS320F2800137
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: UNIFLASH

Hi Experts,

I am asking for my customer here.

How to merge the two C2000 Bin files, such as led_ex1_blinky.hex and timer_ex1_cputimers.hex as below folder

Do we have any tool or instruction to generate? I know we can download the two Bin files by UniFlash, and then read the Flash to generate the one Bin files. But it is not simple way to operate for customer.

Do you have any good insight on this case? Thanks.

    Even though you call them "Bin files", I presume these are actually hex files as described in the article A Brief History of TI Object File Formats.

    We don't have any tool which can combine them.  What might work is these two steps.

    1. Combine the two .out files into a load image
    2. Convert the load image file into a hex file

    For the details on step 1, please search the C28x assembly tools manual for the sub-chapter titled The Load Image Format.  For step 2, convert the load image file into hex the same way you convert a .out file into hex.  While I am confident this works, please know that I'm not aware of anyone has done it this way.

    Thanks and regards,
