SPI EEPROM bootloading on custom hardware with TMS320 C5505 : Clarification needed

Hi,

I am currently using a EVM5505.  Using the hex55 and programmer.out i am able to flash a boot image on to the SPI EEPROM using ccs 4 and XDS100v1.

While flashing the boot image into the SPI EEPROM , programmer.out asks for two options ( 1. EVM 2. EzDSP ) 

However, i have designed a custom PCB based on schematics of the EVM5505. Would there be a problem while flashing the code on to the spi eeprom ?

Which option should i choose ( EVM/EzDSP) ? 

Thanks 

Abhishek

  • Abhishek,

    That will depend on the type of SPI EEPROM that you are using. The eZdsp uses a 512K-Bit SPI EEPROM, while the EVM uses a 256K-Bit SPI EEPROM (see schematics available from Spectrum DIgital's website).

    But if your board is based on the schematics of the EVM 5505, you should be able to program it choosing the EVM option of the programmer.

    Let me know if this helps
