Can we debug C71x intrinsic code on PC by CCS?

hello,

To speed up the debugging process, we want to debug DSP function on PC, after then run on EVM.

So, we want to use the simulation mode of CCS to debug.

Can you tell me which version of CCS can support C66 and C71x DSP simulation?

Hello,

Simulators are no longer supported. There are some "hack" workarounds that we don't recommend which may mislead you instead. We suggest jumping on real HW/EVM.

Hope it helps,

thanks,

Hi,

C71x intrinsic code supports host emulation which means you can compile it using g++ compiler ( or visual studio compiler). Once you are able to compile you can use any gdb/visual studio based debugger ( like eclipse, vscode) to debug the same on PC.
