Difference between installed products in CCS

Tom Tatakis

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: SYSBIOS

Hello - I'm a relative newbie to the CCS and TI environment so I have some basic questions.  I'm working with the Concerto products and I want to build some simple projects to get acquainted with everything.  I have created a 'minimal' SYS/BIOS project through the CCS new project wizard but see that I can include the MCU_SDK package.  

First, what is the difference between creating a SYS/BIOS project and the 'RTOS' in the MCU_SDK?  What else do I get if I check the box?

I could have created an MCU_SDK based project as well when I initially created the project.  What's the difference between that and this 'minimal' SYS/BIOS project?

Second, do I need the IPC package to enable the communication between the M3 and C28 on the Concerto or is this IPC package something different?

Thanks for any help in advance.

    Hi Tom,

    the first thing I would recommend is having a look at our training material and wiki pages.  There is one specifically about BIOS which also covers a lot about IPC (which assumes you have a version of BIOS running and is used for inter processor communications).  A couple of the main differences are an RTSC (BIOS) project will assume use of BIOS as also assume there will be a configuration file in the project (.cfg) for BIOS.

    Have a look here

    Please let us know if that helps.  Also note that there is also a BIOS forum should you have more interest or questions specifically related to BIOS.

    Best Regards,
