About Simulators

CCS offers many simulators for the C6701 and C6711 digital signal processors, in the CCS Setup Utility. Much of your model and algorithm development efforts will work with the simulators, such as code generation. And, since the Embedded Target for TI C6000 DSP provides a software-based scheduler, your models and generated code run on the simulators just as they do on your hardware. You can use the real time data exchange (RTDX) links with the simulators as well. For more information about the simulators in CCS, refer to your CCS online help system.

When you set up a simulator, you must match the processor on your target exactly to simulate your target hardware. If you plan to target C6701 EVM boards, your simulator must contain a C6701 processor, not just a C6xxx simulator. Simulators must match the target processor because the codecs on the board are not the same and the simulator needs to identify the correct codec. Correctly matching your simulator to your hardware ensures that the memory maps and registers match those of your intended target signal processor.
