porting from 6474 to 6678

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: SYSBIOS

hi all,

i start to port my code from the old dsp 6474 to the new one 6678 .

as you all know i had to use the new ccs 5.2 v because the old ccs 3.3 doesn't support the new dsp.

when i try to  create dsp/bios file (configuration file)  the ccs ask for platform and i can't find the one i need which is evm6678

what i have to do ?

if this dsp doesn't support dsp/bios and only support sys/bios   how can i add pipes to the system ?

Thanks in advance

  • Please help .

    i still can't add dsp/bios file ,and i just found that the PIP module not found in the new sys/bios

  • Hi,

    6678 is only supported by SYSBIOS and SYSBIOS does not support PIP nor does it support .tcf files.  You've got two options:

    1.  SYSBIOS does have a legacy support mode where it does support DSPBIOS like scripts converted to .cfg files and the PIP module.  This is really there for temporary porting from DSPBIOS to SYSBIOS.  It is meant to get you into the SYSBIOS workflow and not meant to be for the long term.  I believe there is a document called "converting a legacy DSPBIOS to SYSBIOS" or something like that which can help in the port.

    2.  Cut over to SYSBIOS.  Convert your .tcf file to .cfg.  For PIP, you will have to use one of the IO modules supported by SYSBIOS.

  • Thanks a lot Juda.
    can you please give me an explanation why to remove the pip module from the sys/bios i,
    the porting from the 6474 to the 6678 seem to be nightmare a lot of changes happen No McBsp  ,sys/bios which doesn't support the old dsp/bios
    it seem like not to bother with the porting and just to use another 6474 dsp in serial
