CCS/PGA900: PGA900

Part Number: PGA900
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: USB2ANY

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hi 

First of all i wish i could have the main difference between Dev_ram and OTP in PGA900 (Sorry for my silly request).



I have some questions about PGA900 programming:

Q1 : Is there any way or adapter to use USB2ANY for programming PGA900 in my designed board ?

Q2 : Can i test UART on PGA900EVM? 

Q3 : Can i use code composer to program Dev_ram for my code development in my own board?

Best Regards

  • Hi Ihab,

    The DEVRAM is volatile memory that the internal M0 can use as program memory. It's used to debug firmware since it can be re-written. The OTP is one-time programmable and will be used for the final firmware. It cannot be rewritten and it is non-volatile.

    Yes, the USB2ANY could be used to program the PGA900 in your designed board. You will need to connect the corresponding pins for SPI or I2C from the USB2ANY to your PGA900 board.

    Yes, the UART pins are available on the PGA900EVM. The GUI does not have tests for this UART output is entirely controlled by the firmware programmed into the PGA900.

    Yes, CCS will program your firmware into DEVRAM by default when debugging. This is configured in the PGA900.gel file.

    Regards,
