About the processor system

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AM3358

Hi,

I have used many processors of ti, such as dm368、am3358、omap138 and currently used tds2x series processors. I am now more vague about which systems these chips can use.

Some of these processors are multi-core and some are single-core. Some of them can be used   linux system、TI-RTOS 、 sys/biso  and many more. My question is Is there any general documentation or

introduction to the systems that can be used for these processes.So that I am not so vague about some professional terms.

  • Hello yancc,

    Could you reword your question to be more specific? Different groups support different parts. So I can point you to AM335x/AM437x resources. But if you want to know about other processors, then I will need to reassign this to a different engineer.

    Regards,

    Nick

  • Hi nick

    In fact, I just want to figure out the differences and connections between these different processor architectures.

    Well, I want to know about the tda2x system chip. The official introduction of this chip says that it can run rtos and linux+rtos, so what is the relationship between rtos and sys/bios? Are there any detailed development documents about the RTOS of this tda2x processor, such as the establishment of RTOS development environment on Linux, firmware compilation and firmware burning, etc.

    thanks!

  • Hi yancc,

    Recommend referencing the documentation only zip file, at the below link, which can be downloaded independently.

    https://software-dl.ti.com/processor-sdk-vision/esd/TDAx/vision-sdk/latest/index_FDS.html

    If you have any questions after reading through the documentation, or if that documentation does not address the information that is being requested, please let us know.

  • Thank you very much!

     I have downloaded and browsed the link you gave me.

    My question is, can there be a general introduction? For tda2x processing, is the difference and connection between rtos and sys/bios? If I want to use the rtos system, how do I start, thank you!

  • Hi Yancc,

    For a brief description of TI-RTOS vs. SYS/BIOS please reference this link https://e2e.ti.com/support/processors/f/791/t/820708.

    The Vision SDK documentation previously provided describes how the SYS/BIOS (TI-RTOS) is used on TDA2x by the VisionSDK.   One reference is the VisionSDK_Sw_Architecture_Overview.pdf, slides 21,22,  slide 21 shows an TI-RTOS only setup, while slide 22 shows a linux+ti-rtos setup.

  • Hello,

    the link you mentioned, I have read it, it lists the chip series that can use RTOS, but there is no introduction to the tds2x series I want, and in the

    processor_sdk_vision_03_07_00_00 I downloaded, I did not find the document I want . I want to use the RTOS system on the tda2x series chips,

    how do I start, thank you!

  • Hi,

    C:\PROCESSOR_SDK_VISION_03_07_00_00\index.html

    Open the index.html file from the above-installed path then you will see the list of documents & navigate whichever document you want open.

    The TDA2x platform having the following cores.

    IPU1_0, IPU1_1, IPU2, A15, DSP1, DSP2, EVE1, EVE2, EVE3 & EVE4

    • You can run the Sys/Bois(RTOS) in the above-mentioned core. This is called vision SDK(Bios)
    • You can run Linux on A15 & bios on remaining cores. This is called vision SDK(Bios) + Linux

    Refer to the below user-guide for the vision SDK(Bios)

    file:///C:/PROCESSOR_SDK_VISION_03_07_00_00/vision_sdk/docs/UserGuides/VisionSDK_UserGuide_TDA2xx.pdf

    Refer to the below user-guide for the vision SDK(Bios) + Linux

    file:///C:/PROCESSOR_SDK_VISION_03_07_00_00/vision_sdk/docs/Linux/VisionSDK_Linux_UserGuide.pdf

    Thanks
