Event module - number of events greater than 32

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: SYSBIOS

Customer is using the following software combination, which appears to be a supported combination based on the release notes of SYSBIOS v6.35.03.47.

CCS v5.40
ControlSuite v3.21
Compiler version TI 6.1.3
SYSBIOS v6.35.3.47
XDCTools v3.25.2.70

Device : TMS320F28069

The SYSBIOS User's Guide indicates in the Event module chapter that a single Event instance can manage up to 32 events. If the customer believes they need more than 32 events, is there a way to extend this?  If not, what would be a recommended way to provide this capability through an alternative mechanism?

    Hi Brandon,

    First of all, it's 16 events for C28.

    "For 6x and ARM devices the maximum number of eventIds is therefore 32. For 28x and MSP430 devices, the maximum number of eventIds is 16."

    They could write a new module that can be plugged into Event (just like Semphore, Mailbox, etc. are). This module could multiplex as needed.

    I question the customer request. Why are 32 event Ids (or actually 16) needed?
