New Features/Updates

• Add configuration files for C5505 emulation drivers and C5505 EVM (preliminary). The C5505 and C5509A EVMs shares emulation drivers with C5510 DSK.
• Add configuration files for OMAP3430, OMAP3503 and OMAP3530
• Update Cortex and DAP drivers to reflect OMAP34xx/OMAP35xx updates
• Update IcePick C to better support TI silicon debug

Bug Fixes for 3.3.25-Alpha/3.3.26

• Fix problem with OMAP34xx/OMAP35xx failing to connect to DAP_PC.
• Update IcePick support to reflect the proper Wait-In-Reset status

Known Issues CCS 3.3

• The System Reset and Hardware reset feature on ARM7 can generate unexpected results if applied when the ARM7 processor is halted. To use this feature the ARM7 CPU should always be in a running state before the reset is applied. This problem was traced to a silicon issue.
• CCS 3.3 service release 8 does not support hardware breakpoints on automotive devices. The only solution is to revert back to CCS service release 7. TI is aware of the problem and it should be corrected in service release 9 and later.

Known Issues CCS 3.2

• CCS 3.2.39.5 does NOT officially support the full compliment of TI processors. However, SD has tested the most popular processors along with SD DSKs/eZdsps.
• CCS 3.2.39.5 does not recognize F28xx XAR0-XAR5 when used in a gel file. The solution is to modify gel files to use AR0-AR5.
• CCS 3.2.39.5 does not properly recognize the TMS320C672x device. CCS 3.2 will start up however it will not display the C672x registers or allow load of C672x out files.

History

Release 3.3.24

• Add support for C2000 XDS510LC.
• Updated SdConfig, SdConfigEx and SdFlash to support C2000 XDS510LC emulator.
• Add support for ARM9 ETB/ETM. This adds ETB11 driver and updates ARM9 drivers for ETM support.
• Added “System Reset” feature to ARM7 and ARM9 drivers. This feature is supported through TI IcePick interface.
• Added Hardware reset feature to ARM7 and ARM9 drivers. This feature is supported through TI IceCrusher interface.
• Added VFP support to Cortex R4 drivers.

Release 3.3.23

• Updated F28xx emulation drivers to work around F2833x security module and CCS reset issue. A CCS reset could cause the F2833x security module to trip which causes an emulation failure generally resulting in error -1140 or error -1135.
• Updated DM6437 register xml files as provided by TI.

Release 3.3.22

• Added CCS configuration files for F2833x Floating Point DSP
• Added CCS configuration files for TMS320DM648/647
• Added CCS configuration files for DM355
• Added CCS configuration files for TMS570 and TMS470 IcePick based devices. These configurations use the true IcePick_C driver instead of the bypass IcePick driver. These configurations should be used when the CCS System Reset feature is desired. Note, that not all TMS570 or TMS470 devices have this feature supported in silicon. These new configurations show up as “TMS470” and “TMS570” under the cc_setup “Family” menu.
• Added a customized version of SdConfigEx for TMS570 and TMS470. This version creates a custom TMS470_TMS570 panel with defaults for most common TMS470 and TMS570 configuration settings. The support is installed into <CCS_INSTALLDIR>\specdig\sdconfigex_tms470_tms570.

Release 3.3.21

• Support for multiple Cortex devices in the same scan chain.

Release 3.3.20

• Add System Reset capability into emulator drivers for C64Plus and Cortex. This feature is only available on select C64Plus and Cortex devices. This feature is not available in DSK drivers.
• Few random C64Plus enhancements introduced in CCS 3.3 SR2 for OMAP3430.
• Add enhancement to IcePick-C driver to better support co-existence of CCS and Flash470 for IcePIck enabled ARM7 and Cortex devices.
• Add configuration files for DM350 EVM.
• Fix bug in ARM9x driver to support the ARM968 processor on DaVinvici HD. EPK code was testing for 40 valid bits on a 39 bit scan path.
• Add configuration files for DaVinici HD minus the gel files. GEL files are still in development.
• Add in support for updated DaVinici HD IcePick module. This improves the emulation connection rate when DaVinici CPU clock is running at low frequency.
• Fixed a memory download bug, which affected C6x0x, devices on USB based emulators. This bug was introduced in driver release 3.3.16. The bug does not affect C6x1x or C6x2x devices.
• Random bug fixes for CCS 3.3 SR2 release for C64Plus and Cortex devices.
• Fixed bug on ARM9 where driver was returning random memory value when MMU was enabled and CCS was requesting physical memory address vs virtual memory address. This had side effects on certain gel files that assume the MMU is off. These accesses now return default memory value of 0 to match TI XDS560.

Release 3.3.19

• Make fix to IcePick support for new ARM7+IcePick configuration. This new device requires the IcePick DCON bit to be set by USCIF to enable access to the ARM7 core.

Release 3.3.18

• Work around problem on ARM7/ARM9/ARM11 and CCS 3.3 with C-Step out functionality. When executing thumb code and doing a C function return (shift-F10) CCS would set a breakpoint on the incorrect return address. Driver will now mask breakpoint address to align to a valid 16-bit thumb breakpoint address. Updates ARM7, ARM9 and ARM11 emulation and eZdsp drivers.

• Fix breakpoint bug that was induced with the inclusion of new IceCrusher module and work around for silicon bug. The bug work around in the emulation driver was trashing the contents of watchpoint 0 when it was being shared with hardware breakpoints, software breakpoints, hardware single step and IceCrusher bug fixes. This problem shows up when you have set the max number of hardware breakpoints, then run to a breakpoint and run again. Instead of running the processor would appear to single step or just hit a random hardware breakpoint.

Release 3.03.16

• Update C64x-Plus CCS configuration files to use xml register definitions and change cc_setup device filter to C64+.
• Added in ARM7-TMS470 IceCrusher support and sdopts.cfg configuration parameters to work around known issues.

Release 3.03.0015

• Added/updated support for Cortex-R4. Updates Cortex-R4 driver to enable FLASH470 support.

• Added support for Cortex-R4

Release 3.0x.0013

• Add GEL files for various SD EVMs and DSKs.
• Add additional CCS configuration files for SD EVMs and DSKs.
• Clean up driver and configuration file support for C672x in CCS 3.1.
• Update for Windows Vista release candidate.

• Update C64Plus drivers for CCS 3.3 interface changes. You must use driver release 3.02.10 or higher to support the C64Plus in CCS 3.3x.
• Update C64Plus drivers to work around possible scan chain problem when 3 or more C64Plus devices are chained together. This problem is still under investigation and may still appear in a multiple processor system. The failure mode in CCS is a failure to connect with error –1080.
• Update IcePick drivers to reflect CCS 3.3 register mapping changes.
• Update ARM7 and ARM9 drivers to reflect CCS 3.3 register mapping changes.
• Update C64Plus drivers for CCS 3.3 Cache Tag viewer changes. These changes are untested pending CCS changes to enable Cache Tag Viewer for emulation drivers.

Release 3.02.0009

• Update sdxds510usb_v11.out and sdxds510usb.dll to improve support with standalone tools like TI Flash470 and SD XMLGUI. These files only effect the operation of the XDS510USB emulator.

Release 3.02.0008

• Updated support for ARM11 for new emulation features on OMAP2430.
• Integrated IcePick-B support for OMAP2430, external IcePick utility no longer required. The OMAP2430 CCS configuration files have been updated also.
• Minor changes to C6455 with respect to CacheTag display.
• Tested with CCS 3.2.39.5, full production release.

Release 3.02.0006

• Added support for C6400 Plus and IcePick-C.
• General emulation driver updates for CCS 3.2x.

Installation

1. Run SetupCCSPlatinum_v30XYY.exe, Where X is the CCS version and YY is the driver release version. Each version is tailored to the specific version of CCS with respect to the drivers and CCS configuration files installed. However you can install a higher version CCS driver release version into an older CCS 3.x path if desired.
2. If using an XDS510USB emulator, unplug and replug the USB cable to force a complete driver update.
3. If this is first time install of the XDS510USB hardware then Windows will pop up the Hardware Install Wizard to install USB drivers. If this occurs you need to direct the wizard to look in the directory <CCS_INSTALLDIR>\specdig\xds510usb to find the USB .inf/.sys files. Once Windows has completed the hardware setup, unplug and replug the USB cable.

Notes

1. If you intend to use CCS 3.x and a previous version of CCS on the same PC with a XDS510USB then make sure you disconnect and reconnect the USB cable to the XDS510USB between CCS sessions. This will maintain the necessary relationship between two different CCS driver stacks. You must also select the correct SdConfig for the current CCS focus. That is select ”SdConfig v3.2” if using CCS 3.2. SdConfig will automatically load emulation drivers if they are not already loaded to the XDS510USB so you must select the SdConfig for the CCS you are targeting.
2. If you are installing SD CCS 3.2 drivers into a CCS 3.1 environment make sure you uninstall your CCS 3.1 drivers first.
3. If you inadvertently install an older version of drivers after your CCS 3.2 driver install then CCS will most likely fail on startup for C64Plus and DaVInici targets. To correct this problem you will need to uninstall and reinstall your CCS 3.2 drivers.
