CCS/TMS320F28020: Programming Multiple Piccolos with the same Software

Part Number: TMS320F28020

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hello,

is there a simple way using CCS to program multiple Piccolos in one JTAG chain with the exact same software? And how is it about multiple JTAG chains?

Regards,
Martin

  • Martin,

    There are options in CCS and some options outside of CCS:

    1)Inside CCS:

    a)The most basic way would be to manually select the processor in the chain and load the program directly

    b)Through the use of either the scripting console or the DSS server you should be able to automate this so that it can be kicked off like a batch file to basically select the individual cores and load the code.  There are scripting examples inside the ccsbase directory of the Code Composer install

    2)Outside CCS:

    Elprotronic make a tool that can program 8 devices in parallel through the JTAG interface.  http://www.ti.com/tool/C2000-GANG  This method does not need CCS IDE to be open/connected at all.

    Best,

  • Hello Matthew,

    thanks for the advice to take a closer look into the scripting concole. After a short research on th TI wiki pages, this will definitly solve my problem.
