OMAP5912: CCS version that supports OMAP5912

Part Number: OMAP5912
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: SEGGER

Hi Team,

Our customer has several older devices that use the OMAP5912. He is trying to read and debug the existing code, however, he no longer have the original project and he needs to start from a fresh CCS software. Is it possible to use a newer version of CCS to read and debug the OMAP5912's in his existing projects? If yes, which CCS version he can use?

The labels on chips are "OMAP5912ZZG" "4B-27A2QEW" and "OMAP5912ZZG" "4B-67C7DTW".  

Regards,

Danilo

  • Hi Danilo,

    He can technically use the current version of CCS. But the recommended version he should use will vary depending on the rest of his environment. What debug probe is he planning to use with the 5912?

    Thanks

  • Hi Ki,

    According to our customer he is using a Segger J-link probe to connect to the JTag connections of the OMAP5912.

  • Note that while current versions of CCS should work with the 5912, offical device support for it is missing. What that means is that there is no "5912" option in the target configuration editor and no startup GEL files ship with the product. You can still manually "build" a target configuration for 5912 (which is an ARM9 + C55 + BYPASS (8 bits) ).

    If the customer uses CCS 8.3.1 or earlier, there is board support for the 5912OSK. This includes board/device support files and startup GEL files for the OSK. I assume the customer has a customer 5912 target so perhaps the OSK startup GEL files will not be needed.

    I can't comment on SEGGER driver support. The customer may want to confirm with SEGGER directly.

    In any case, the 5912 is an old device and not supported anymore. Hence there will be little support we can provide.

    Thanks
