TMS320C6678 REV-2.0

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TMS320C6678

Hi ,

We were currently working on the second board. In the second board we use one rev-1.0 and one rev-2.0(TMS320c6678 REV-1.0,REV-2.0). 

I am porting the first board GEL file for the second board. In our first board both the DSP are REV-1.0, But in our second board one is REV-1.0 and one is REV-2.0.

When i Execute the GEL file through CCS, The error is shown in the MAIN PLL configuration section itself.

QUIRES:         

       1.  What is the difference between TMS320C6678 REV-1.0 And REV-2.0 Chip?

       2.  What changes should be done in the GEL file for REV-2.0? 

       3.  Sample GEL File for TMS320C6678 REV-2.0 can you provide?

Regards,

  • There is the one PLL bug on Rev 1.0 that required the use of an IBL (on I2C EEPROM) to work around.

    That said, there shouldn't be anything different with respect to the GEL file usage.

    What Error are you getting?  You can start with the EVM GEL file, it's part of the MCSDK package.  It should be in the directory structure \mcsdk_2_01_02_05\tools\program_evm\gel\evmc6678l.gel

    Please note that you'll need to compensate any PLL settings based on what your Input Clocks are vs the EVM, and DDR rates, etc.
