Reset Spec for 6748

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TMS320C6748

I have been looking at the reset spec for the DSP, and to go to full system reset, I need to pull both TRST and nMrst low?  Is that correct?

A little better idea of how the resetout signal works would be helpful., I may have set thing up wrong on my application.  Please let me know.

  • Paul,

     

    To achieve a true Power On Reset (POR), yes you need to pull both the RESET and TRST pins low at the same time. A detailed timing diagram is available in Section 6 of the TMS320C6748 Datasheet.

     

     

  • Okay, It appears to me there are four combinations of TRST and RESET, and we have covered three in the data sheet, what about the other one:

     TRST low and RESET hi

    Is this just normal ops?

    Lastly, When I go into emulation, do I have to pull reset low when Trst is driven low (I don’t think so, but I need to check)?

     

  • Paul,

    TRST is for the JTAG emulation logic / JTAG port. As long as RESET is logic high, and the device booted correctly, TRST shouldn't interfere with normal operation.

     

    I'm not sure - Asserting RESET and TRST together will cause a POR, which will disrupt the emulation connection- so I don't think you need to pull RESET low with TRST. You can probably reference the EVM for a quick sanity check to see if driving TRST low drives RESET low as well.
