CCSTUDIO-C2000: XDS110

Part Number: CCSTUDIO-C2000
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TMS320F28027, TMDSEMU110-U

Hi,

TI recommends to buy the newly developed XDS110 programmer for C2000 devices, TMS320F28027 in my case. However, this programmer is currently unavailable. The TI website states "Out of stock" when I try to order it for over one month now. Any idea when shold this programmer be available?

Regards

Dusan

    What specific part number are you trying to order?

    When I check  PN: TMDSEMU110-U it seems to be available.

    Hi,

    Yes, it seems available...

    I put it into the shopping basket and check out to pay. Then the system asks me to log-in in order to check the availability of the XDS110. And when I check-in the system reports that the programmer is "out of stock".

    Any suggestions? Thanks!

    You may want to use the affordable and available xds100v2. They look to be in stock from a few different sources on the web.

    Yes, Thanks! Those programmers are available even at Farnell, my "local" distributor, and I could have it in few days. However, since TI recommends a newer programmer with additional and enhanced features I wanted to buy that one (XDS110). If I need to spend money I might as well spend it for the most modern version.
    As a last resort there are cheap Chinese clones of the XDS100V2 available at ebay. But as the proverb says: I am not rich enough to buy cheap stuff. I would prefer to buy the contemporary programmer which is recommended but seems to be unavailable.
    Best regards

    Hi,
    Any comment from TI? When will the programmer XDS110 be available? For the time being I will scavenge one of my old launchpads with F28027, but I would like to have a real programmer for the future.
    Regards

    Hi Dusan,

    I wouldn't have any concern with buying a xds100v2 instead of a xds110, especially the one from Spectrum Digital.  I've used an xds100v2 for years.  Both are capable debug probes.  The major difference between the two, when using a C2000 device, is the speed of the connection.

    That being said, I personally recommend the xds200, if there is enough budget for it.  Faster loading times means less time waiting and more time debugging/writing code.

    On the page above (and under debug probes), you'll find a link to speed benchmarks.  You'll also find some more comments about the various options.

    ===

    I don't have any specific comments on availability of the xds110.  If you still want to know availability for the xds110 after reading this, let me know & I can check next week.


    Thank you,
    Brett

    Hi,
    Thanks for the suggestion and the final sentence. In this case I will most likely use the old F28027 board with XDS100V2 programmer on-board, it will do for now. Once the issues with the XDS110 are resolved, I will buy that programmer and get/use the bonus Energy-trace (once that is available) and the serial port. My client will in the meantime obtain his own version of XDS100V2...
    Best regards
