TMS320F28388D: Multicore Processors Freertos usage

Part Number: TMS320F28388D
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: C2000WARE

Hello, Mr. Expert,

I will use FreeRTOS for task management on 2 x c28x cores on the F28388D board, I can do it in two ways:
Either I can install FreeRTOS on both cores separately or I can use SMP FreeRTOS, a task management software designed by FreeRTOS for multi-core processors.
Does the F28388D board support SMP FreeRTOS, if so I couldn't find any examples, if not I need to install FreeRTOS on both cores separately, right?

Can you guide me on this?

Good work,

Best regards

  • Hi Ali,

    Symmetric Multiprocessing FreeRTOS is not supported on F2838x. So yes, you will need to setup FreeRTOS on each core separately. You can refer to the freertos_ex3_c28x_dual_blinky example in [C2000Ware]/kernel/FreeRTOS/Demo/C2000_F2838x_C28x_CCS directory for a demo application.

    Thanks,

    Arnav
