As a former application engineer for the 56F800/E series I'm sorry
that your experience with CodeWarrior and the 56F80x family was not a
happy one. My brother in Colorado complains bitterly about what his
company is going through trying to use TI DSPs. Everybody has a
different experience, some positive, some negative.
For the rest of the community, I suggest you give Metrowerks a chance
to do the right thing in supporting this community of designers. MW
Ron has proven over many years to be an honest, honorable, and
effective technical expert and I doubt very much that the level of
censorship you posit is even remotely possible given his
participation on the new forum.
What Metrowerks is describing will provide more effective support for
CodeWarrior users. If you don't get the help you need, or think
things are amiss, I suggest the following strategy:
1) Contact MWRon directly.
2) Contact technical support for the device you are using and get
them involved. Don't forget, Metrowerks also has "customers" on
the
silicon side as well as users like you. (Silicon manufacturers
understand that they need good dev tools to sell devices.)
3) Post your concerns on Yahoo.

Dear Metrowarriors,
I'm not amazed about this purpose of Metrowerks to set up an own
discussion
group, moderated and censored by Metrowerks.
In the last two years, a lot of messages have been posted, which were
critical about Metrowerks and Motorola. Also messages of users (as I), who
decided not to use DSP56F80x and Metrowerks tools for future projects, due
to the problems encountered.
If we all move from this independant yahoo group to the new censored
Metrowerks discussion group, I'm sure that any messages, which are too
critical, will be blocked.
So stay independant at this yahoo group!
Kind regards,
Wim de Haan

You can find out the execution time of a function by setting an I/O pin
at the start and clearing it at the end of the function. Then, just use an
oscilliscope to measure the duration of the pulses on the I/O
pin.

hi! i have problems
with adc of the 56f8323(i am using 56f8300 dev. board). i am trying to
write a simple program usind adc. i have sent it in my attachment. in
program i am burning the leds according to e-field sensor or microphone(if
button pressed). i have used the adc initialization bean(in loop simultaneous mode). e-field in an4 input and microphone in an0 input. My program dosn't work :(( Status of the leds constant. 1)What is wrong?? is there anybody who can correct the problem..... 2)acording to reference manuel adc result registers signed(via sext
bit) but i am receiving a warning message if i write: int
sample_an0; sample_an0 = getReg16(ADCA_ADRSLT0); warning: implicit
arithmetic conversionfrom 'unsigned int' to 'int' why??? 3)making the result conventional ("result = 4095*(Vin/Vdd)"
instead of "result = 4095*((Vin-Vdd/2)/Vdd)") what kind of calculation i should use? is this correct: result = (result/32)+4095/2 4)how can i
measure the time (or instruction cycle) of any function in my program? Thanks for your time....................
