dsk6xldr problem

Started by puffoinkazzato July 16, 2003
i'm having some
problems with tms320c6711 dsk. I want to use the command line
application
dsk6xldr supplied with Code Composer V2.10, so as to load an
application on
the dsk board without Code Comopser IDE. If i try to load the
cnfdsp_nohost
application supplied with the suite, there are no problems, the code
is
loaded and the application run. If i try to load a my application
developed
with Code Composer v2.1 with DSP/BIOS support, i don't receive any
error
but the application doesn't start. Obviously loading my application
inside
Code Composer IDE all things goes well. There is something that i
forgot?



 
I believe that your test case [cnfdsp_nohost] loads into internal DSP RAM and I am speculating that your DSP/BIOS code is loading into external SDRAM.  The problem could be EMIF initialization.  When you run CCS and use the 6711 DSK GEL file, the EMIF is being setup automagically for you.  Anytime the DSP is reset the EMIF will need to be reinit'd.
 
One way to do it...
Define an EMIF section in your memory map [addresses are in the GEL file] and create a separate c or asm file with '.word's [values are in the GEL file] and and select the EMIF file to be linked first [or before any other external memory files].
 
BTW, I believe that the DSK does not perform any verification after loading - that's why "it just sits there".
