Hi,

In any of the RTOS example CCS project, if you check the property----->build----->steps----->post build steps, you will see how the .out converted to .bin:
${TI_PDK_INSTALL_DIR}/packages/pdkAppImageCreate.bat ${TI_PDK_INSTALL_DIR}/packages ${CG_TOOL_ROOT} ${PROJECT_LOC}/${ConfigName} ${ProjName} AM437x arm

Hi eric,
The generated .bin file from .out file is equivalent to _ti.bin ? or it is just a bin file.
i f it is just a .bin file how to convert it to _ti.bin ?

Thanks & Regards,

Hi,

please check

http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Processor_SDK_RTOS_BOOT_AM335x/AM437x

, converting from .bin to _ti.bin is done by tiimage.exe.

Also see the batch file I mentioned earlier:

:SOC_AM3_AM4
    %CG_TOOL_PATH%/bin/arm-none-eabi-objcopy -O binary %APP_NAME%.out %APP_NAME%.bin
    %PDK_PATH%/ti/starterware/tools/ti_image/tiimage.exe 0x80000000 NONE %APP_NAME%.bin app )
    goto ENDSCRIPT

Hi Eric,

I'm using pdk_am335x_1_0_3 but I the file pdkAppImageCreate.bat doesn't appear to be installed.

Is there somewhere I can download this, along with any executables that it might invoke?

[My setup is:
Custom PCB
AM3352BZCZ30
CCS Version: 6.1.2.00015
bios_6_45_01_29
pdk_am335x_1_0_3
GNU v4.9.3 (Linaro)
Win 7 64-bit
MCSPI interface to Micron N25Q128A11ESE40 flash]

Thanks,
GerryL

Gerry,

Please open a new thread for this. The old thread is closed and topic is irrelevant. Thanks! A quick to your question: it is under pdk_am335x_1_0_4 or 5 or 6\packages.
