TMS320F28377D: Code development and tools

Part Number: TMS320F28377D
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: C2000WARE

Hi Forum,

Texas Instrument C2000 family in general and delfino series in particular are reliable and advanced platform for power electronics application, however they are very complicated and confusing, so many settings and configuration registers, my questions are regard this issue

1- what is the fastest and most efficient way to learn and program these devices?

2- is there any code generator for these platforms? like Grace for MSP430

any suggestions?

Thanks  

 

  • I appreciate learning any new platform can be daunting at first.  The best way to start is I think to review the on-line training workshop for this device at:

    If you have an F28379D LaunchPad board you can download the workshop labs on this site and work through them yourself.  If you get into any difficulty or have any questions then please post them to this forum and we will help you.

    There is no equivalent of 'Grace' for this platform.  For automated code generation the closest is third party tools, such as Embedded Coder from The Mathworks.

    If you haven't already done so, I recommend downloading C2000Ware.  Therein you will find many code examples for this device which will serve as a good starting point for your own project.

    Regards,

  • thanks for soon reply
    Can you give some companies name which are using delfine? I have heard Tesla in main motor control uses this platform, am I right? do you think they use any specific tool like matwork code generator? as far as I know this code generator is inefficient and add many overhead.

  • I cannot supply information on specific users.

    Embedded Coder is widely used with C2000 and is highly configurable.  You may like to contact The Mathworks directly for more information on that product.  There is a selection of user stories on this page:

  • Hi Arash,

    There's a bunch of info  / links in the E2E thread below on using MathWorks tools to program C2000 devices. The support is very mature and complete, and works for the entire family of C2000 devices. In addition, MathWorks and TI meet regularly to discuss ongoing technical items to make sure the support stays up to date with new devices and features.
