Booting CCS code from NOR Flash

Genius 4530 points

Hi All,

I have implemented a code in Code Composer Studio and I want to run it at the time of booting. I mean , on power-ON, the code should implement by itself.

I have worked on FPGAs and they have a provision of a .bit file which is implemented during runtime and .mcs file which gets implemented from PROM at the time of Power-ON.

I am looking for a similar behaviour. All the references are for booting the Linux kernel and filesystem via FLASH and U-Boot. This procedure uses a .bin file of the kernel. So, do I need to convert the .out file of CCS into its binary/hex equivalent before burning it into the FLASH? And after that use, the flash serial loading utility to program the flash with the bin file?

If this is the procedure, how do I convert the .out file of CCS into its equivalent .bin/hex file?

Thanks and Regards,

Sid
