[1] We would like to use the UART boot mode on our processor card that uses the TMS320C6657 DSP. We have configured our DSP to work in the Little Endian mode.
[2] According to the TI support forum, the command “ hex6x -boot -a -e=_c_int00 -order=L -memwidth=32 -romwidth=32 -o <file.hex> -map <file.map> <file.out> ” will cause the program “hex6x” to generate the proper boot image that is in the required “boot table format”.
[3] However, the Keystone Architecture Bootloader User Guide (SPRUGY5C] states that the RBL assumes that all
images are in Big Endian mode. Does this mean that I should use the program “Bootconvert6x” to convert my Little Endian boot image to a Big Endian boot image before I can use a XMODEM program to send my boot image to the TMS320C6657 DSP?
Thank you,
