TMS320F28P650DK: Dual CPUs clock async. in run time

Part Number: TMS320F28P650DK
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: SYSCONFIG

Tool/software:

Hi Champ,

I am asking for my customer.

They are running led dual cores examples with and without Sysconfig.

In without Sysconfig example, we have the line for Sync CPUs added there.

IPC_sync(IPC_CPU1_L_CPU2_R, IPC_SYNC);

IPC_sync(IPC_CPU2_L_CPU1_R, IPC_SYNC);

We see the GPIO of the two CPUs individually toggle initially correctly synchronized (the two CPUs have the same frequency setting). However, it will slowly be asynchronous over the time (the example of Sysconfig does not have such asyn. event) 

Not sure if we miss any configuration to have dual CPUs synchronized properly.

Thanks and regards,

Johnny

  • Hi Johnny,

    Can you confirm if both examples are generating the samy code? The IPC_sync should be included in the SysConfig examples as well. Can you confirm if you can easily replicate the situation you've described. How long before you observe the toggle become asynchronous?

    Regards,
