CCSTUDIO: Simulation function

Part Number: CCSTUDIO
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TMS320C6678

Hello Experts,

Our customer has learned that the ccs support the Simulation function. Can you give us more information about this function?

I was able to see that CCS v5.5 and lower are the versions that support this function as mentioned in this E2E post below:
(+) CCS: How could I do a simple simulation? - Code Composer Studio forum - Code Composer StudioTm︎ - TI E2E support forums

We know that we have very limited support on this but we would still want to check if we have anything to share with our customer.
Basically, the customer is requesting if we have some reference documents to share about how to use the simulation tools to help them better use this function?

The device we use is DSP. The model  of the DSP is TMS320C6678.

We hope to hear your advice. Thank you.

Best regards,

Gerald

  • Hello Gerald,

    As mentioned, simulators are unsupported and hence there is little assistance we can provide.

    Basically, the customer is requesting if we have some reference documents to share about how to use the simulation tools to help them better use this function?

    I was able to dig up this old doc. It is for the older C6000 simulators however:

    https://www.ti.com/lit/ug/spru600i/spru600i.pdf

    May still be worth a look.

    The biggest value of using the C6000 simulators (besides not being dependant on any additional hardware) is for the advanced CCS profiling capability that you can't get with hardware. Otherwise the usage of CCS witjh the simulator is similar as using hardware with the benefits of less limitations.

    Hope this helps
