tcf files for 6748 have been provided in BIOS 5.41 for some time. What version of BIOS and CCS are you using? You should have support for evm6748.

Using CCS V3.3 with a LogicPD OMAPL138/6748 EVM, thank you.

Check out the C6748 Product download page.

http://focus.ti.com/docs/prod/folders/print/tms320c6748.html

Follow the "Development Software for TMS320C6748, C6746, C6742 Processors" link in the Software and Development Tools section. This will get you all the software available for the C6748 device.

You may also want to look at the Getting Started Guide for the C6748 on the TI's wiki: http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Getting_Started_Guide_for_C6748

which contains additional information to get you started of this device.

The C6748 specific platform file is located in the DSP/BIOS installation directory. You must have at least DSP/BIOS 5.33.06 or greater, I'd recommended using the latest DSP/BIOS 5.41 available:

http://software-dl.ti.com/dsps/dsps_public_sw/sdo_sb/targetcontent/index.html

You must setup CCS 3.3 to recognize the new version of DSP/BIOS using Component Manager, then the evm6748 platform will be available within CCS under File->New-> DSP/BIOS Configuration.

You can also find the platform file for the C6748 in BIOS_INSTALL_DIRti\platforms\evm6748

TCF files just use a these platform file to create a user TCF file. The user's TCF would contain the following:

utils.loadPlatform("ti.platforms.evm6748");

/* The following DSP/BIOS Features are enabled. */
bios.enableRealTimeAnalysis(prog);
bios.enableRtdx(prog);
bios.enableTskManager(prog);

// !GRAPHICAL_CONFIG_TOOL_SCRIPT_INSERT_POINT!

prog.gen();

If you are looking for a specific example to start from, then you can look at:

BIOS_INSTALL_DIR/packages/ti/bios/examples/evm6748/hello.tcf

BTW: I'd also recommend moving the CCStudio 4.x. The newer OMAP-L138/C6748 EVM kits are moving to CCS 4.x for support.
