TMS320C5517: Development of audio framework with BF, ASNR, MSS and DRC features

Hi Ming,

Thank you for the response.

I could download and open the demo project from CSL.

But I'm getting the error while building the code.

Can you please let me know how to resolve this.

Thanks,

Bindu

Hi Ming,

Thank you for the feedback.

My ti folder contains

can you share the download links for the rest.

Thanks,

Hima Bindu

Hi Ming,

Thankyou for your inputs.

The file is not found from the given XDC Tools link. I could download and install the remaining two.

My current ti folder has

Now, the build is giving syntax error. But really those are not are syntax errors.

Please suggest me to clear the above.

Hi Hima,

I think you still missing:

XDCTools 3.24.05.48 (software-dl.ti.com/.../index_FDS.html)

Best regards,

Ming 

Hi Hima,

Also make sure the "Codegen outputs algebraic assembly" is checked.

Hi Ming,

The link you shared is not found.

Please check.

Regards,

Hima Bindu

Hi Ming,

This is already checked.

Thanks,

Hima Bindu

Hi Hima,

Try this link: XDCTools Downloads (ti.com)

Best regards,

Hi Ming,

I'm able to install the XDC tools.

My current folder looks like the following.

But still the syntax errors are not cleared.

Please advise.

Thanks,

Hima Bindu

Hi Hima,

First of all, you installed the incorrect XDC tools version. It should be XDCTools 3.24.05.48, while you have installed 3.62.00.08.

Secondly, can you make sure that you get the same properties for your project?

Best regards,

Ming

Hi Ming,

Now I installed XDC 3.24.05.48 and ensured the project properties also.

Still facing the same issue.

it seems like some headers are being accessed from C:\ti\ccs1210\ccs\tools\compiler\ti-cgt-armllvm_2.1.2.LTS. But I could not find it in the property includes.

Is it really required or we need to remove?

Regards,

Hima Bindu

Hi Hima,

Yes, that seems what happened. Please make sure your project properties "General" looks like the following, so that the CGT for C55x 4.4.1 is used:

Best regards,

Ming

Hi Ming,

This also did not work.

Can you please share the source code along with includes in a new folder.

Regards,

Hima Bindu

HI Ming,

I'll check and update.

Hima Bindu

Hi Ming,

I adjusted the paths as per the above.

I'm getting some bios related issue.

Can you please check and update.

Thanks,

Hina Bindu

Hi Ming,

After the above change, the following are the errors.

1. errors in .cmd file. Memory allocation may need to be changed

2. Other errors are related to un resolved symbols in bios.a55L

Please help me to clear the above.

Thanks,

Hima Bindu.

Hi Hima,

Something is wrong with your CCS project. Are you using the CSL 03.08.01?

As you can see, the CMD file used in the BF_rt_bios is the VC5505_I2S.cmd:

and the DSP/BIOS generated CMD file - BF_rt_bios_cfg.cmd:

I do not know how come your CCS project is using the C5517.cmd.

Best regards,

Ming 

Hi Ming,

Thank you,

The program build was successful when I mapped VC5505_I2S.cmd file as the linker command file.

but can we load and test the bf with TMDSEVM5517 evaluation board because the target device is C5517.

Thanks,

Hima Bindu

Hi Ming,

Thanks for your constant support.

I'll continue to work on this module.

Can you please verify and suggest on how to get EVM in India. There are some shipping concerns to India.

Thanks,

Hima Bindu

Hi MIng,

My aim is to work on CMB+C5517 EVM.

I have CMB card and did basic POC with 280049 launch pad.

When I'm trying to order C5517 EVM, it is not being taken and saying that the shipping to India is not possible.

If I start making the board with EVM reference, it will take 2 months to get the HW, So I need to get the EVM to complete my POC quickly.

Kindly suggest me on how to get the C5517 EVM to India.

Thanks,

Hima Bindu.

Hi Hima,

I will forward this thread to our HW apps team for further help.

Best regards,

Ming

Hi Ming,

Thank you so much for your support.

Thanks,

Hima Bindu

Hi Jacobi,

Thank you for your feedback.

Please find attached screenshot regarding the communication with support team.

can you please suggest me further.

Regards,

Hima Bindu

Hello Hima,

I will make a couple inquiries if there is anything else I can provide, but chances are the feedback you received is a final answer on the topic. Neither Ming nor I have any control over export policies.

Best Regards,

Ralph Jacobi

Hello Hima,

I have not been able to get any further information regarding this. I don't anticipate I will at this point, but if I happen to do so, I will post here it.

Sorry that we are unable to help you further regarding this issue, but those of us who help support via E2E have no control over TI's export control policies with these EVMs.

Best Regards,

Ralph Jacobi

Hi Jacobi,

Thanks for your efforts and effort.

I could order it through Mouser. I might receive it in couple of days. Hope I will be able to do my POC.

Thanks,

Hima Bindu

Hi Ming,

I could manage to get the eval board. I'm yet to start the testing.

I was going through the bf_rt_bios for understanding the microphone data reading from PCM1864 through I2S and DMA.

I noticed that U1->DOUT is connected to I2S2 and U2->DOUT is connected to I2S0.

I2S2 left and right receive buffers are read through DMA CH6 AND CH7 respectively.

I2S0 left and right receive buffers are read through DMA CH0 and CH1 respectively.

Pls let me know whether my understanding is correct or not.

and pls confirm whether mic1 to mic4 outputs are received in DMA CH6 and 7? and mic5 to mic8 in DMA CH0 and CH1?

I need all 8 microphones data to process further in my application.

Thanks,

Hima Bindu.

Hi Ming,

ok, I can work on my application with 4 microphones as well.

But there is a provision to select at least 6 microphones for this purpose.

what are the 6 microphones in CMB? how the data is getting processed further?

Thanks,

Hima Bindu

Hi Ming,

Can you please guide me on testing as per the attached application report.

C55x CSL Audio Pre-processing-spracn7.pdf

I just wanted to understand the processing as per the following:

Can you please guide me on this.

Regards,

Hima Bindu

Hi Ming,

We are in the process of designing our own board with 6 or 8 microphones in uniform circular form. I need to finalize the schematic. But The PCM devices interface with the processors remains the same as the current CMB.

That's the reason I want to understand the I2S channels to DMA relation. Once the microphone sequence and data are clear, then I can customize the inputs to the algorithms and understand the performance.  So I requested your confirmation on the following.

I2S2 left and right receive buffers are read through DMA CH6 AND CH7 respectively.

I2S0 left and right receive buffers are read through DMA CH0 and CH1 respectively.

whether mic1 to mic4 outputs are received in DMA CH6 and 7? and mic5 to mic8 in DMA CH0 and CH1?

Thanks,

Hima Bindu.

Hi  Ming,

Thank you very much for your detailed explanation.

If I see the HW interactions of PCM devices with 5517EVM, each PCM1864 is interface via I2S channel.

 U1->DOUT is connected to I2S2 and U2->DOUT is connected to I2S0.

U1 is supposed to send the audio samples of microphones 1 to 4 on DOUT1, which have to be received on I2S2 left and right channels.

But, as you explained earlier, how Mic3 and mic4 are read through I2S3?

U1 samples all the 4 microphones data and has to send on DOUT right?

Kindly clear this confusion.

Thanks a lot.

Regards,

Hima Bindu

Hi Ming,

Thank you so much for your detailed clarification.

I need to connect DOUT2A on I2S3 in addition to the connections mic1&2 and mic5&6 signals mentioned in the spracn7.pdf. I will add this to my connection diagram.

I started working on the EVM. I tried to do target configuration and then to load .out file.

when I open the .ccxml file, I could see the following instead of test connection.

I need your guidance to resolve this issue.

I would like proceed further with debugging the intermediate signals for bf, mss and asnr processes.

Kindly help to proceed further.

Thanks,

Hima Bindu.

Hi Ming,

Thank you for the update. I could download the file and can see the processor selection.

But the connection with board is not established.

I hope the XDS100V2 drivers may need to be manually installed or any jumper settings on EVM is mandatory.

Please confirm.

Thanks,

Hima Bindu

HI Ming,

I tried xds100 serial running from cmd prompt, but it displayed the following.

Thanks,

Hima Bindu

Hi Hima,

Did you do the following?

Connect a USB A/B cable from your host PC’s USB port to port 'EMU USB'(J3) on the EVM

Best regards,

Ming

Hi Ming,

Yes, it is connected.
