CCS/TMS320F28235: CCS v3.3 (using DSP/BIOS )to CCS v7.XX

Part Number: TMS320F28235

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hi,

I have a project that I'm wanting to migrate from CCS v3.3 to CCS v7. The part being used is TMS320f28235. My main concern is migrating dsp/bios (5.41.02.14). 

Is there a document that could help me achieve this? I found spraas7g.pdf so far

Thanks

  • Hello,
    That is quite a migration. You can use the the legacy import wizard to import CCSV3.3 projects:
    processors.wiki.ti.com/.../Importing_CCSv3_Projects_into_CCSv4

    If you are already using DSP/BIOS 5.3 with your CCSv3 project, then moving to 5.41 is not bad. The differences are trivial and BIOS 5.4 is actually binary compatible with 5.3.

    One thing to note is that DSP/BIOS support has been deprecated in recent CCS version. It is no longer bundled with CCS (though you can get it from the CCS App Center) and many of the DSP/BIOS specific debug support (RTA) has been dropped.

    For more details, see:
    processors.wiki.ti.com/.../BIOS_Support_in_CCS_Eclipse

    And finally, the app note you mentioned is specific for migrating from DSP/BIOS to SYS/BIOS. This is NOT a trivial task. But it is worth considering since DSP/BIOS has been deprecated in favor of SYS/BIOS.

    Thanks and good luck!

  • Thanks for the quick response. I am using DSP/BIOS 5.4. but was thinking to switch to TIRTOS. We've tried the import wizard but ran into issues. I'm thinking it might be easier to start a new project in CCS 7 with sys bios

    Thanks,

    This would be a cleaner solution and recommended one.
