MATLAB Link for Code Composer Studio Development Tools

Tutorial 2-1--Using Links and Embedded Objects

The Link for Code Composer^TM Studio IDE (CCS IDE), a part of the MATLAB Link for Code Composer Studio, provides a connection between MATLAB and a digital signal processor in Code Composer Studio. Using links provides a mechanism for you to control and manipulate a signal processing application using the computational power of MATLAB. This can help you while you debug and develop your application. Another possible use is for creating MATLAB scripts that you use to verify and test algorithms that run in their final implementation on your production processor target.

Before using the functions available with the link for CCS IDE, you must select a digital signal processor to be your target because any link you create is specific to a designated digital signal processor. Selecting a processor is only necessary for multiprocessor boards or multiple board configurations of Code Composer Studio. When you have only one board with a single processor, the link defaults to the existing processor. For the links, the simulator counts a board; if you have both a board and a simulator that CCS recognizes, you must specify the target explicitly.
