Part Number: TMS320F28335
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: UNIFLASH

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hi, Is it possible to program TMS320F28335 in CCS v8 using FT2232D as debugger?. If it so, please suggest a procedure or way to implement it.

Gayathri,

The short answer is "yes" but I want to clarify that the FT2232D has to be programmed to function as a XDS100v2 in order to connect from CCS IDE to the target C2000 MCU. On its own the FT2232D is a USB to serial converter with CPLD gates used to match the endpoint protocols.

While the ControlCARD for F28335 does not have an integrated emulator; a good reference would be the http://www.ti.com/tool/TMDSCNCD28379D control card. The programmation steps to make a FTDI into a XDS100v2 are in this app note: http://www.ti.com/lit/an/spracf0/spracf0.pdf

Another soln would be to just buy the emulator from TI, we currently recommend a newer XDS110 http://www.ti.com/tool/TMDSEMU110-U

Finally, once you have the emulator per above the flash programming can be done many ways, either through the flash tools in built into Code Composer, or with external tools like UniFlash http://www.ti.com/tool/UNIFLASH

Best,

Matthew
