OMAP2430 and TMS320C6x

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CCSTUDIO

I want to simulate simple data transfer between the ARM and C6X components.

Q1: How do I do that as simply as possible.

Q2: The default board says C55, do I change that to C6000 ?

Q3: Which "CCStudio board" do I choose.  Will CCstudio simulate TWO processors?

thanks

jim

    Note that the OMAP2430 is not a mass market device, therefore if you are using the part you should have support through your local TI office.

    In the heterogenous processors like OMAP2 the communication between cores is accomplished by a shared memory map, so the transfer would be one write to memory from the first processor and one read from memory by the second processor. As to simulation entirely in software, I do not believe this capability is built into CCS.

    What default board are you referring to? The OMAP2430 configurations from my CCS show a C64x+.

    CCS can simulate multiple processors through the parallel debug manager, however by my understanding they will be independent instances of each processor so you do not have true communication between them without actual hardware.
