Embedded Target for Texas Instruments C6000 DSPs

TI C6000 and Code Composer Studio IDE

Texas Instruments (TI) markets a complete set of software tools to use when you develop applications for your C6000 hardware boards. This section provides a brief example of how the Embedded Target for TI C6000 DSP uses Code Composer Studio (CCS) Integrated Development Environment (IDE) with the Real-Time Workshop and the C6000lib blockset.

Executing code generated from Real-Time Workshop on a particular target in real time requires that Real-Time Workshop generate target code that is tailored to the specific hardware target. Target-specific code includes I/O device drivers and an interrupt service routine (ISR). . Since these device drivers and ISRs are specific to particular hardware targets, you must ensure that the target-specific components are compatible with the target hardware. To allow you to build an executable, TI C6000 uses the MATLAB links to invoke the code building process from within CCS. Once you download your executable to your target and run it, the code runs wholly on the target; you can access the running process only from the CCS debugging tools or across a link for CCS or RTDX. Otherwise the running process is not accessible.

Used in combination with your Embedded Target for TI C6000 DSP and Real-Time Workshop, TI products provide an integrated development environment that, once installed, needs no additional coding.
