Blackfin +JTAG

Started by gaurav reddy November 16, 2003
Hi
I earlier had a ADSP21065L board with a summit ICE
JTAG emulator pod.Now,I have changed my application on
Blackfin 533(BF533).My question is whether I could use
the same emulator pod for the BF533 eval board.I tried
but had no success.In JTAG CONFIGURATOR I looked in
the "device properties" and "type" but could find
ADSP21535 only and other SHARC types.Does it mean that
I cannot use the emulator pod for application on
BF533.Is there any work around so that it works even
for this.Or do i need to purchase an another emulator
pod.
Any suggestions are appreciated.
Thanks
Regards
Reddy

ADI should confirm, but I believe you just need the additional license for
VisualDSP for Blackfin. That should include support for the whole Blackfin
line.

The BF535 was the first released, and has since been renamed from
ADSP21535. The latest VDSP/Blackfin should provide updates for the newer
versions like the BF533.



It sounds like you have an older version of the VisualDSP++ tools.
VisualDSP++ 3.1 (available for download on ADI's web site) is the
latest that I know of and it supports the ADSP-BF533 under that
name. The Summit-ICE does work with the ADSP-BF533 EZ-KIT board
(I've done just this), but Ken Porter's right, you will need a full
VisualDSP++ license (for the Blackfin) to do so. The EZ-KIT itself
(without a full Blackfin license) only supports connecting to the
board with the on-board USB "debug agent" and not an ICE.
