Hello, I have been using DSP's from another vendor and have recently switched to TI. My question is what is the easiest way to program the device from which the DSP loads its boot code from? In my previous designs I would use a Flash and would program the Flash using a Flash Programmer tool that was embbeded within the DSP software development IDE. It was very easy to use, simply create your boot loader code file, launch the Flash Programmer tool, point to the boot loader coder and press program and the tool would program the Flash. The Flash Programmer tool would basically run a C file that was created to interface with a specific Flash device. We would design the board with this Flash. Is there such a utility with Code Composer that would program the boot code into the possible boot devices?
If not, can anyone suggest what is the easiest way to boot from: EMIF16, SRIO, I2C, or SPI? We are leaning toward EMIF16 and not use the GPIO at all.
Thanks,
joe
