How to generate bootable Code for ADSP 21060

Started by Unknown March 17, 2001
Hello to all,

we built our application using VDSP 4.10 and the White Mountain
emulator. Now we want to start our application directly from Boot-
Eeprom but we're not sure how to tranfer the hex-file there with our
emulator tool.
Can anybody give us some informations please ? Thank you.

You need an Eprom programmer to program your eprom with the hex file
that you generate using visualdsp. Hopefully you have your eprom in
some kind of socket so that you can remove the chip, program it and
put it back in.
If it's a flash chip, then you can write a program to write your
binary data to the flash using the DSP. I'm not sure if there are
example programs for this packaged in VDSP.

If it's a flash chip you might be able to just use the 'fill' command
to fill your flash with your boot code (the hardware folks will
probably know more about how feasible this is)
