[FAQ] F05 Flash: How do I convert a RAM-based project to a flash-based project?

A:

This answer refers to C2000 devices which have F05 flash technology (Which devices include F05 Flash?)

• Application note: Running an Application from Flash (spra958)
• Application note: Copying Compiler Sections from Flash to RAM on the TMS320F28xxx DSCs (spraau8)

The application note Running an Application from Internal Flash Memory on the TMS320F28xx DSP (SPRA958) describes the different aspects of converting a RAM-based project to a flash-based project.

• There is a flash-based software example for each F05 device family in C2000Ware's device_support directory.  Each is named flash_<device>.  For example:

• • C2000Ware_<version>\device_support\f2806x\examples\c28\flash_f28069
  • C2000Ware_<version>\device_support\f2803x\examples\c28\flash_f28035
  • ...
    

Specific steps taken to convert the example from RAM to flash can be found in the header of the example .c file, and in the documentation found in the C2000Ware_<version>\device_support\<device>\docs directory.
