TI_RTOS is there a decent training manual from TI (part2)

Hello,

There is some basic information in the below FAQ:

https://e2e.ti.com/support/tools/code-composer-studio-group/ccs/f/code-composer-studio-forum/947615/faq-ccs-how-do-i-get-started-with-ti-rtos-sys-bios?tisearch=e2e-sitesearch&keymatch=faq%3Atrue

What device are you working with? 

Thanks

Hi Ki

I have the following below:

MSP432, MSP430 and C2000. 

It is either laziness or TI just does not care about the training resources on RTOS anymore. I have new engineers that has joined my company and I would like them to get up to speed ASAP. The resources are just everywhere...

TI used to do excellent training for clients and potential clients.

TI-RTOS support has been moved to the respective product lines (from the tools group). It is best to post in the MSP and C2000 forums for the best TI-RTOS resources for your devices. I know that this is not ideal. Sorry for all the inconvenience.

Hi Ki

Why is the fully TI-RTOS not course not on the website. Only the bare basics from the RTOS is handled and we all know the way TI-RTOS handles Tasks and necessary API implementation is totally different to that of FREE-RTOS.  Yes the concepts are the same but the subtle in how data is returned and things are tasks or actions are released.

I can't answer your questions regarding TI-RTOS. It is best to direct your questions to the respective device forums.

Thanks

Hi Naasik,

I agree that TI study materials are every year worse and worse. In comparison with ST or NXP are TI study materials very bad.

Few years ago here was pretty good training to TI-RTOS called TI-RTOS Kernel Workshop. Unfortunately this workshop videos are not at TI webapges anymore. It seems that TI give up any attempts for any good free training videos.

Hi Jan

I have a new engineer starting with me. I would like the person to get solid training. I am not sure if TI does Copyright stricting as there is limited training online. The things I see online are extremely expensive. I am forced to create a course from scratch, which is exciting. I am using other vendor resources to implement the training considering how sequence sensitive CCS is to implementation steps in the compiler, the pin mix tool and RTOS. In turn makes it frustrating and tough to hook a new Comer to the ecosystem. Do you agree?

The beauty of TI is the actual tool chain is very solid especially on the compiler and fairly cost effective.

Hi Naasik,

Yes, I understand your task.  At the beginning I was slightly surprised that someone want to start developing MSP432 and MSP430 at these days. But at your case it looks like  maintaining projects which are already started. I think new developer with RTOS concept experience should be able jump into TI ecosystem with material available at TI webpages and Resource Explorer. Your approach with preparing training materials is optimal for new person but it will costs your time. If you want to train only one person only, purchasing of online course may to be more cost efficient.

Hi Jan

It is not just one Engineer the training is for. I have a few other that are joining. Plus we growing so soon we will have two Engineer and other Sciences on the projects. Msp430/2 is perfect due to the advantages it holds over the other vendors. Lack of transparency on the ecosystem is not a bridge for new comers, to easily overcome however they can do a better job at it.

Kind Regards 

Hi,

As to be honest you are first developer which talk about advantages of MSP430 or MSP432. I know about 50+ companies which moved out from TI MCUs to competitors products from many reasons. TI wireless SoC are great but general purpose MCUs not so much. But maybe you have applications where TI MCUs fit well.
