TMS230C6711D memory problems

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TMS320C6711D

Hello

We are facing some issues when using TMS320C6711D. A memory area is reserved (0001 0000 – 017F FFFF) but we are using since several years without seeing any problems . Do you know what kind of potentials problems we could have if we use ? It seems actually in our code we use this area and we have some problems.

Regards

ERIC

  • Hi Eric,

    Thanks for your post.

    In general, you are not supposed to use memory addresses which are tagged as "Reserved" and if any violation on using the Reserved memory addresses, the potential problem would be the memory map error. That is like, it would prompt you as below:

    Trouble running Target CPU:    Memory Map Error: READ/WRITE access by CPU to addresses (0001 0000 - 017F FFFF), which are RESERVED in Hardware.

    The above error which indicates that, it prevents access privilege (read/write) to the mapped memory addresses which are reserved. Usually, if you use malloc to allocate memory in the "reserved" locations in your code, you will be prompted to see the error mentioned above.

    Thanks & regards,
