AWR1642: The emulator for AWR1642's custom board

Part Number: AWR1642
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: , TM4C1294NCPDT, TMDSEMU110-U, EK-TM4C1294XL, TM4C129ENCPDT

Hello,

My customers want to make their custom board implementing AWR1642.
They are considering to refer from the AWR1642BOOST; however, we cannot understand what emulator should be implemented or used.
We think TM4C1294NCPDT is a blank MCU and the firmware is not released for AWR1642.
And TMDSEMU110-U cannot connect to AWR1642 from the description in the following thread.
e2e.ti.com/.../2271653

We want to realize the following requirements. How can I realize the these?
1.To connect ARM and DSP in AWR1642 from Code Composer Studio.
2.To connect AWR1642 via UART (config port of 115.2kbps and data port of 921.6kbps)

My customers want to use Demo Visualizer for their custom board.

Best Regards,

Hello Nomo,
On the TI EVM we use the TM4C1294NCPDT as the emulator and also for the UART interface access via the USB to the PC. They could use the similar implementation on their board as well.

Hello Vivek-san,

Thank you for your reply.
I can understand TM4C1294NCPDT as the emulator and also for the UART interface.
By the way, can we use EK-TM4C1294XL (which is mounting TM4C1294NCPDT) as the emulator and UART interface?

Best Regards,

Hello Nomo,
You should be able to use the EK-TM4C1294XL also, we have not explicitly tried it though. You would need to wire the correct signals from the connectors of the EK-TM4C1294XL to your board. You can use the schematics available on the same webpage for reference to map the header pins.

Vivek

Hello Vivek-san,

I have an additional question.
Can I use TM4C129ENCPDT as a on board emulator instead of TM4C1294NCPDT?
I think the difference between TM4C1294NCPDT and TM4C129ENCPDT is only AES hardware; therefore, they have a software compatibility.

Hello Nomo,
Request you to confirm the software compatibility between the two devices on the TM4C E2E forum (e2e.ti.com/.../908). They would have the best information regarding this.

Vivek
