BOOTING FROM FLASH( FLASHBURN)

I want to burn my program of 896K size (.out) file into flash using "FLASH BURN UTILITY on EVMDM642 , when i burn it the "FPGA Code" overrrite through it, so kindly suggest me what i have to do. Start a New Thread

engr_ash,

I'm not sure what you mean by the statement:
"FPGS CODE overrite through it."
Perhaps you can clarify that statement.

Also, a .out file is not an executable image.
rather, the .out file contains all the location information, the .data segments. the .code segments,
the ....
plus all the debug information
plus the symbol table
plus the string table.

the flash loader that comes with the CCS takes the .out file and can burn an executable into flash.
For everything to burn properly, the appropriate flash loader config file must be used and the
linker command file must have located all segments properly.

BTW:
I'm assuming that your program will fit into the flash.

Note:
the size of the .out file has no real relationship to the size of the program.
To determine the size of the program, you need to examine the contents of the .map file.

Can you explain this more? Why is FPGA code involved in DSP code programming?

You have to more detailed and clear to get help. Thanks.
