hello,
I have two TMS320c6678le boards, my goal is to make PCIe transaction between these two boards through AMC backplane, and to test time from send data to received data on the RC side.
I used the sample provided by TI (PCIes_sample), then succeed in communication.
So I tried to get the free run timer counts by accessing TSCL before RC sends data to EP and after RC receives data from EP.
The I get the difference between two counts.
It costs about 30ms to complete the communication between two boards.
it cost so much time so that I doubt if it is possible.
Do I need to change some settings in code ? or configurations on boards?
I have no idea where the latency comes from?
Sincerely
