Difference between DSP/BIOS and non DSP/BIOS projects - hema...@gmail.com - Sep 3 10:00:16 2007



Dear all,
         code composer version 3.1.0
         BIOS cuda-4.90.02.10
         code generation tools v4.1.0
  I am using the CCS with above configuration.I don't know the difference between DSP/BIOS and
non DSP/BIOS applications.How to know whether I am using DSP/BIOS or non DSP/BIOS
application.Can anyone explain me what are the main differences.
  In writing the asm and cmd code,what are the precautions that we have to take for DSP/BIOS
and non DSP/BIOS applications.
  If any information is missing please let me know.
  Please help me in this regard.

Thank you one and all.

Hi,

actually its up to you if you want to use DSP/BIOS or not.
basically using DSP/BIOS eases programming quite a lot, eg you can manage the memory config.,
HWI, SWI ...all kind of stuff with the configuration tool instead of programming it by
yourself.
The major drawback: using DSP/BIOS will definitely slow down your system, wich will show
paticularly signifanct when running it on a relatively slow DSP like the 28xx series(DSP BIOS
was intentionaly developed for c6xxx DSPs, which provide considerable higher performance)

There is a DSp/BIOS tutorial which comes right along with code composer, check the help menue.
Use the Help->Update Advisor to get the latest DSP Bios(currently 5.31.08) - DSP Bios is
provided for free.
After installation it you can find it at eg
      C:\CCStudio_v3.3\bios_5_31_08
wher lots of samples are provided.

Give it a shoot!

Regards

Uli
