Tutorial--Exporting Filters from FDATool to CCS IDE

This tutorial shows you how to export filters from FDATool to CCS IDE with the Export to CCS IDE dialog. The tutorial covers exporting filters by generating C header files, and by writing filter coefficients directly to the target memory. Also see the previous section, Guidelines on Exporting Filters from FDATool to CCS IDE.

Descriptions of the Two Tutorial Tasks

Task 1--Export Filter by Generating a C Header File -- You should complete this task before starting Task 2. Exporting a filter by generating a C header file not only exports your filter; it also ensures that you allocate enough target memory for the exported filter coefficients.

Task 2--Export Filter by Writing Directly to Target Memory -- You should complete Task 1 before starting this task to ensure you allocate enough target memory for the filter coefficients to export. Exporting directly to target memory is useful when you want to repeatedly tune your filter in FDATool, and then export the updated filter coefficients directly to the allocated target memory.

Setting Up for the Tutorial

To complete this tutorial, you must install both the Signal Processing Toolbox and the Embedded Target for the TI TMS320C6000 DSP Platform (shortened to Embedded Target for TI C6000 DSP in this section). You do not need to open CCS IDE before starting the tutorial.
