AUDIO-AM275-EVM: Trace Analyzer limitations on Theia

Christopher Isabelle
Prodigy 30 points

Part Number: AUDIO-AM275-EVM

Tool/software:

We’re evaluating trace analyzer on the AM275 C7 core using the Theia-based Code Composer Studio v20. A few questions:

  1. Trace Analyzer limitations on Theia:
    We can run trace and capture data, but cannot configure trace settings, manage output, download traces for offline processing, or access the visualization tools. Does TI have guidance on using trace analyzer with Theia for the C7 core?

  2. Future support:
    What is TI’s plan for adding full trace analyzer functionality (configuration, export, visualization) to CCS v20+?

  3. Fallback to CCS v12 (Eclipse):
    Can we switch development/debug/optimization back to Eclipse-based CCS v12 to regain full trace analyzer support? If so, is there guidance on moving projects backward (e.g. replacing .theia/.vscode launch.json/settings.json with CCS v12 equivalents)?

Any additional recommendations on workflow or tool selection for C7 trace debugging would be appreciated.

Thanks,

    Hello,

    For more configurability, you can create a custom core trace session. This will allow for much options such as specifying the buffer type, setting ranges, and setting trace on/off triggers

    The ability to export a trace session is currently not available. However we plan on adding this feature in a future release.

    CCS Eclipse does not come with AM275 support by default. I believe it can be added with some package. However CCS Eclipse is no longer a supported environment and I do not recommend going back to this version Also note that the trace tools in CCS Eclipse have been deprecated in support for some time and it is unlikely that the old trace tools would support AM275.

    Thanks
