Hi expert,

May I check with you on if I should use --fill option to remove the empty in generated hex file with hex2000 tool?

Thanks

    It depends on what is required by the tool which reads the hex file as input.  Most (probably all) flash programmers have no problem with gaps in memory between entries in the hex file.  

    The most typical use of --fill is in combination with image mode.  For a better understanding, please search the C28x assembly tools manual for the sub-chapter titled Image Mode and the --fill Option.  

    Thanks and regards,
