CCS/66AK2H14: Test Software for EVMK2H

Part Number: 66AK2H14

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hello, I have the EVMK2H Evaluation Module and would like to run some test software. I have Code Composer 7.2 installed and am downloading the PROCESSOR-SDK-RTOS-K2HK  04_02_00_09. Can anyone tell me if there is some board test software in the Processor SDK and where I might find it?

Thanks,

Joe

  • Joe,

    Please indicate what functionality you want to test on the custom hardware so we can provide appropriate guidance.

    Typically, we recommend that users create a GEL file for the platform and test emulation, clocking, power up and DDR functionality before tesing any other interfaces. For simple diagnostics tests, we provide a Power on self test functionality which is described here:
    processors.wiki.ti.com/.../Processor_SDK_RTOS_POST

    In addition, the processor SDK RTOS Release notes indicates, all the driver software that we support on these devices, each driver has an associated example that can be run to test the peripheral functionality.
    processors.wiki.ti.com/.../Processor_SDK_RTOS_Release_Notes

    For boot loading using Processor SDK RTOS bootloader, you can look at the Bootloader description here:
    processors.wiki.ti.com/.../Processor_SDK_RTOS_Boot

    The provides flash writer utility that can help you checkout, reading and writing to the boot media.

  • Rahul,

    Hello, thanks for responding to my post. A long time ago I played with the EVM and back then I used a binary file that was located in some "Board" directory in the Processor SDK and I was able to test the memory and the UART IF. I thought there may be some "platform" test but I believe that has been deprecated. That was a long time ago and now I have a new computer and I need to load the right software to start using the EVM and getting to know how the 66AK2H14 works.

    I'm looking for anything to test the ARM cores or the DSP cores on the EVM board.

    Thanks,
    Joe
