CCS/TDA4VMXEVM: RTOS CAN application - CCS project configuration

Part Number: TDA4VMXEVM

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hi,

I have a few questions regarding the RTOS project for R5 on TDA4.

We want to create a new CAN project from the beginning using SYSBIOS and CCS.
We will use the can profiling application as an example.

So far we created a simple CCS Project and successfully run it on R5 core.
Configuration we used:

Project template: SYS/BIOS -> TI Target Examples -> Typical
Compiler Version: TI v18.12.3.LTS

Output type: Executable
Output format: eabi(ELF)
Device endianness: little
Linker command file: linker_r5_sysbios.lds - from PSDKRA/mcusw

Target: ti.target.arm.elf.R5F
Platform: ti.platforms.cortexR:3ARM57L8XX

So here are my questions:

1. Is our basic configuration of CCS Project correct(expecially the choice of Target and Platform)?

2. Should we use all of the compiler flags listed in PSDKRA documentation(MCUSW Documentation -> User Guide -> Compiler Flags used)?

3. Are there any particular settings in SYS/BIOS that we should configure, to make sure the application will run without any problems(Memory Options, Runtime options etc.)

  • Hi Adam,

    Yes for #1, #2. For #3, you will have to look at linker command file. Any particular reason to use CCS based project?

    With CCS project, one would require to include other dependencies (such as PDK) and our recommendation would be to use make based build mechanism. Which has been tested.
