Hardware Interrupt Vector Table

In non-DSP/BIOS project, the vector.asm file in your project defines the hardware interrupt vector table. An assembly language file, vector.asm, defines which interrupts your project uses and what each one does.

When you choose to use DSP/BIOS capabilities, the interrupts defined in the vector table move to the Hardware Interrupt Service Routine Manager in the CCS Configuration Tool. With all of your interrupts now defined as Hardware Interrupts (HWI) in the Configuration Tool, your project does not need vector.asm so the file does not appear in your DSP/BIOS enabled projects.
