Hi , Has anybody used simulink to generate C code for Piccolo TMS320F28027 . I wanted to know if that was an efficient way to do it . Any suggestions would be helpful , I am new to embedded and Code Composer itself .

    The Embedded Target tools from Mathworks are very popular, and very powerful.  I have had many customers tell me that it is an excellent product.  Now, is it as efficient as it could be? Not in all cases.  A good portion of their initialization code and blockset uses our code, and they use our compiler obviously, so that is as efficient as we have made it (which in some cases we sacrifice cycle efficiency and code size for ease of use; IQMath, DMCLibs).  But we have seen some particular efficiency issues with some code generated from matlab/simulink.  It's one of the things we are working with them to improve.

    I can highly recommend the tool, but if you are looking at an F28027 you should be cautious of code space bloat just because the memory footprint is relatively small.
