Technical discussions about the TI C54x DSPs (including the c5401, c5402, c5402a, c5404, c5407, c5409, c5409a, c5410, c5410a, c5416, c5420, c5421, c5441, c549, c5470 and c5471).

hello all,
I was intending to stream data from the PC to the target, shall i do this while the DSP is halted, or can it be done while the DSP is running. What happened to me is that the Code Composer Studio starts to give me error messages about target time out when i tried to read or write to the DSP memory from the host while the DSP is running...this is very critical for the project i'm currently working in, Please help me as quick as possible, it's realy urgent. thanks. bye. |

I don't believe it's matter if you using CC debugger or write your own application to talk to JTAG - DSP will be halted every time it's being accessed. RTDX should work around it by only using JTAG during idle time, so halting wouldn't matter. Unfortunately since I haven't have an opportunity to use RTDX, I can't help you much .

In my experience, if you attempt to modify or read DSP memory while it's running, you'll get various problems more then 50% of the time. DSP/BIOS and RTDX should allow you to implement seamless (well, sort of) real time communications between host and a target by sending data over JTAG during DSP's idle time. I never used those features myself, so can't help you here. You should read TI's documents about BIOS and RTDX and go through their tutorials. > > > >Mike. > > > > > >----- Original Message ----- > > From: Mohamed Montasser > > To: > > Sent: Thursday, June 08, 2000 7:28 AM > > Subject: [c54x] streaming data from host to target using HPI > > > > > > hello all, > > > > I was intending to stream data from the PC to the target, shall i do > > this while the DSP is halted, or can it be done while the DSP is > > running. > > > > What happened to me is that the Code Composer Studio starts to give me > > error messages about target time out when i tried to read or write to the DSP > > memory from the host while the DSP is running...this is very critical > > for the project i'm currently working in, Please help me as quick as > > possible, it's realy urgent. > > thanks. > > bye. > > > |
