TDA3XEVM: Operating system in TDA3

Part Number: TDA3XEVM

Hi,

We have a TDA3x EV. I know it has TI - BIOS. We would like to grab the images using M4, run our own image processing based algorithm on the DSP's and get the results. We have binaries of our algorithm and it has ARM support. Our library is Linux and QNX based.

1. Can we have other OS on TDA3 M4's other TI - BIOS (Linux or µC/OS)?

2. If only TI - BIOS, can you please let me know how to use create a new use-case which uses our own algorithm header file and get the results? Can you point me to the similar use case example?

   

    Something like:

        capture (IPU1_0) -> Ourown_algorithm (DSP1) -> Display or Nullsrc

or     Nullsrc (IPU1_0) -> Ourown_algorithm (DSP1) -> Display

Please let me know

Thanking you

  • Hi SriH,

    1. TDA3x device do not have A15 core thus can not run Linux or QNX (those high-level OS needs some features that M4 core do not have).

    2. Your usecase is pretty simple and should be easy to implement. You can check following documents for directions:

    PROCESSOR_SDK_VISION_03_07_00_00/vision_sdk/docs/Architecture/VisionSDK_SW_Architecture_Overview.pdf

    PROCESSOR_SDK_VISION_03_07_00_00/vision_sdk/docs/Architecture/VisionSDK_SW_Architecture_Details.pdf

    PROCESSOR_SDK_VISION_03_07_00_00/vision_sdk/docs/FeatureSpecificUserGuides/VisionSDK_Overview_UsecaseGen.pdf

    PROCESSOR_SDK_VISION_03_07_00_00/vision_sdk/docs/FeatureSpecificUserGuides/VisionSDK_UserGuide_UsecaseGen.pdf

    Also the usecase 'PROCESSOR_SDK_VISION_03_07_00_00/vision_sdk/sample_app/src/rtos/usecases/nullSrc_display/ ' has structure very similar to what you need and you can use it as reference.
