Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TCI6638K2K, SYSBIOS

Dear Experts,

Please help by pointing right SW development tools for DSP and ARM cores for TCI6638K2K SoC.

Is there any RTOS from TI available with drivers for all the peripherals in the SoC?

Thanks in advance for the help.

Hi Atanu,

The MCSDK is supporting SYS/BIOS RTOS and Linux OS for KeyStone II ARM A15 + DSP C66x.

You can download it here:

Hi,

Thank you for your quick response. Few more queries. please address them as well.

1. MCSDK and CCS 6.1.1 are interlinked or I need to use only MCSDK, please suggest.

2. For ARM cores, when we use SYS/BIOS RTOS, I hope all the drivers for on-chip SoC peripherals are available in the RTOS.

Atanu

Hi Atanu,

1. MCSDK and CCS are (more or less) independent. CCS 4.x or older releases are not supported with MCSDK.

2. Please see

Hi Atanu,

The latest MCSDK version is 3_01_04_07 which supports latest CCSv6.1 IDE.

You can get the examples and drivers which is based on SYSBIOS from the following directory after MCSDK installation.

C:\ti\pdk_keystone2_3_01_04_07\packages\ti

C:\ti\mcsdk_bios_3_01_04_07\examples

Hi guys,

Few more queries:

- For ARM A15 corepac, in TCI6638K2K TI-RTOS is proven on Cortex A15 multi-cores (which is I guess enhanced version of SYS/BIOS) ?

- In TCI6638K2K SoC is it recommended to run two OS? For example we can plan to run (a) SYS/BIOS or TI-RTOS for C66x Corepac DSPs and (b) for ARM15 corepack we can use TI-RTOS? Please suggest.

Regards,
Atanu

Hi Atanu,
A1)
As per the latest C6000 TI RTOS, I don't find RTOS for Cortex-A15 but Cortex A8 & A9.

A2)
Yes, you can run two OS on two cores independently.

Looks like there is a support available for keystone II device. Please download the latest SYS/BIOS and try example from below wiki.

SYS/BIOS(Refer release notes):

Example:

Please post your follow up questions on TI-RTOS forum which will not be supported in device (Keystone ) forum.

Thank you.
