CCS/TMDSEMU110-U: XDS110 design files (schematic, BOM, firmware)

Part Number: TMDSEMU110-U
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: ENERGYTRACE

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hi team,

 

Since we have discontinued the XDS100 line, and recommend the XDS110, where does one find the hardware design files and firmware (binary)?

 

I believe I found the binary (bootloader and firmware) packaged in CCS C:\ti\ccsv8\ccs_base\common\uscif\xds110 but still need hardware details.

 

We had all of that good stuff on how to reproduce one for the XDS100 on its wiki:

http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/XDS100?keyMatch=XDS100&tisearch=Search-EN-Everything#How_to_make_an_XDS100_.2F_How_to_build_an_XDS100_hardware_emulator

 

But the XDS110 is completely lacking that sort of collateral (it doesn't even mention the binary in CCS):

http://downloads.ti.com/ccs/esd/documents/xdsdebugprobes/emu_xds110.html

 

I searched for a while and see people referencing board files for launchpads and debug packs that are XDS110 based, but I’m looking for the build files for just the standard debugger.

 

Thanks in advance,

Billy

  • Hi Billy,

    Unfortunately the XDS110 standalone pod (TMDSEMU110-U) design files are not public. As you said, reduced versions are available embedded in Launchpads and development kits.

    The XDS100 Debug Probe is still quite active and many third party companies resell models. For an updated list, check:
    downloads.ti.com/.../emu_xds100.html

    Hope this helps,
    Rafael
  • Thanks Rafael,

    That’s unfortunate since we point people to the XDS110 on the XDS100 wiki and product page. I was assuming there would be an equivalent design package.

    Thanks for the quick response though.

  • Billy,

    I understand the frustration but, even for the XDS100, the reference design available at our page is not a faithful reproduction of what's available in the marketplace. Each third party includes small deviations to cater to their customers and differentiate their products.

    Although the changes to the standalone XDS110 are much larger (mostly due to the auxiliary and expansion connectors), the fundamental functions can be found in the various implementations: the MSP432 is the most complete as it feaures EnergyTrace.

    Regards,
    Rafael
