TMS320F28388D: Are CLA memory sections .scratchpad and .bss_cla zero initialized?

Part Number: TMS320F28388D

Tool/software:

Are the memory sections .scratchpad and .bss_cla zero initialized?

And does this zero initialization happen after power-up in hardware? Or in the code exectuded before main is entered?

Thanks, 

Flurin

  • Hi Flurin,

    The .scratchpad and .bss_cla are simply designations of memory sections that the CLA will use. The linker cmd file designates where in the device's LSRAM memory this data will be placed, meaning they don't refer to a specific physical area of memory. There should be information about initialization of LSRAM memory in the device datasheet (linked here). If you have issues finding this information and I can loop in a RAM expert.

    Best Regards,
