TX setting

  STEP 1 : Hardware 

easyDSP uses MCU's single boot mode to access the flash memory. So the SIO/UART channel that is used in the single boot mode should be used for easyDSP.
Otherwise, easyDSP can support only monitoring, not flash writing.
Please kindly check the datasheet of target MCU to identify which SIO/UART channel and whith port pins are used in the single boot mode and connect them to easyDSP pod.

For example, below datasheet capture for TMPM370FY indicates :
    /BOOT of easyDSP pod should be connected to PF0 of MCU.
    TX of easyDSP pod should be connected to PE0 of MCU.
    RX of easyDSP pod should be connected to PE1 of MCU.

 

Other considerations :
- DVDD could be either DVDD3 or DVDD5 depending MCU type.
- In case there is a reset IC between easyDSP /RESET and MCU -RESET, it should transfer easyDSP /RESET signal to MCU -RESET within 0.5sec.
- In case pull-up resistor is attached, resistor value should be higher than several k Ohm.


STEP 2 : Modification of easyTX.h file 

Two files are provided for easyDSP communication (easyTX.h and easyTX.c). Please include them in your project. You can find them in the easyDSP installation folder (\source\TX_TXZ).
Since Peripheral Driver library from the MCU supplier are used in the files, this library should be included in your project.

First, include *_gpio.h and *_uart.h according to MCU.
Also based on the hardware connection above, set the channel number and its port.
Below example is made based on TMPM370. You should modify it according to target MCU.
Finally set the baudrate of easyDSP communication. The baud rate should be same to that of easyDSP project.

 

 

STEP 3 : Calling easyDSP_init()

Pleae include easyTX.h in the top of main.c and call  easyDSP_init() in the main() after the initialization of others.


 

STEP 4 : IDE setting

1. Hex file (Intel format) is used for flash programming. So it should be created in every compiling time in the same folder to output file (ex *.elf) with same file name. The hex file extension could be either 'hex' or 'ihex'. easyDSP first check if the hex file with extension 'hex' exists and use it for flash programming. If the hex file with extension 'hex' doesn't exist, easyDSP uses the hex file with extension 'ihex'. Pleae set your IDE accordingly to create hex file in every compiling time. 
2. For easyDSP to access the variable, the debug information should be included in the output file (ex, *.elf). And the option of assembler, compiler and linker should be set accordingly.
3. The unused variables could be excluded from the debug information depending on compiler's optimization level and linker setting. If necessary, you can set the linker option so that the unused variables are not excluded.  
4. To compile inline functions in the easyTx.c, please enables c99 mode in the compiler options if required.
