PROCESSOR-SDK-AM57X: Where are the TI-RTOS Kernel Examples from section 9.8 of the documentation?

Part Number: PROCESSOR-SDK-AM57X
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: SYSBIOS

Dear TI support,

Please see section 9.8.3, "ARM Cortex-A15" here: https://software-dl.ti.com/processor-sdk-rtos/esd/AM57X/08_01_00_09/exports/docs/rtos/index_examples_demos.html#arm-cortex-a15

This section says to use Code Composer and go to View -> Resource Explorer (Examples). I have tried several versions of Code Composer for Windows (including 9.3.0, which was validated with the PROCESSOR-SDK-AM57X, and the latest CCS release, which is version 12.5.0), and there is no option for "Resource Explorer (Examples)." I never see anything like this screenshot that is shown in the documentation:

If I go to View -> Resource Explorer, I cannot find any AM572x examples at all.

Needless to say, it is frustrating when the documentation for running a simple "Hello World" example is not accurate. Please let me know what I must do to access the AM572x Cortex A15 SYS/BIOS "Hello World" example project. Thank you!

Best regards,
Dave

  • Hello Dave,

    I understand your frustration. I have tried following the same steps and obtained the same result. Have you downloaded the SDK?

    I believe this example is there under 

    processor_sdk_rtos_am57xx_08_01_00_09/bios_6_76_03_01/packages/ti/sysbios/examples/generic/hello

  • Thank you, Josue! You are correct that the examples are in the SDK.

    In case it helps others, I found that you can import one of these examples into CCS 9.x by going to:

    1. File > New > CCS Project
    2. In the New CCS Project dialog, select the tab for the processor core that you want to use the example on (such as "Cortex A" or "C66XX")
    3. Near the bottom of the dialog, click on the text link to "Import Wizard"
    4. In the "select search-directory" text box, browse to "processor_sdk_rtos_am57xx_08_01_00_09/bios_6_76_03_01"
    5. It will search under the SYS/BIOS folder and should find a variety of example projects, such as "benchmark" and "hello".

    Thanks again and have a good day,
    Dave
