Getting Started
This section gives a brief overview of the steps to take when first developing for a C28x™ device. For
more detail on each of these steps, see the following:
•
Getting Started With TMS320C28x Digital Signal Controllers (literature number
•
C2000 Getting Started Website (
Step 1. Acquire the appropriate development tools
The quickest way to begin working with a C28x device is to acquire an eZdsp™ kit for initial
development, which, in one package, includes:
•
On-board JTAG emulation via USB or parallel port
•
Appropriate emulation driver
•
Code Composer Studio™ IDE for eZdsp
Once you have become familiar with the device and begin developing on your own
hardware, purchase Code Composer Studio™ IDE separately for software development and
a JTAG emulation tool to get started on your project.
Step 2. Download starter software
To simplify programming for C28x devices, it is recommended that users download and use
the C/C++ Header Files and Example(s) to begin developing software for the C28x devices
and their various peripherals.
After downloading the appropriate header file package for your device, refer to the following
resources for step-by-step instructions on how to run the peripheral examples and use the
header file structure for your own software
•
The Quick Start Readme in the /doc directory to run your first application.
•
Programming TMS320x28xx and 28xxx Peripherals in C/C++ Application Report
(literature number
Step 3. Download flash programming software
Many C28x devices include on-chip flash memory and tools that allow you to program the
flash with your software IP.
