Application Report SPRA958H SPRA958H ­ September 2008 Running an Application from Internal Flash Memory on the TMS320F28xxx DSP David M. Alter DSP Applications - Semiconductor Group ABSTRACT Several special requirements exist for running an application from on-chip flash memory on the TMS320F28xxx DSP. These requirements generally do not manifest themselves during development in RAM since the Code Composer StudioTM debugger can mask problems associated with initialized sections and how they are linked to memory. This application report covers the requirements needed to properly configure application software for execution from on-chip flash memory. Requirements for both DSP/BIOSTM and non-DSP/BIOS projects are presented. Some performance considerations and techniques are also discussed. Example code projects are included that run from on-chip flash on the eZdspF2812TM, eZdspF2808, and eZdspF28335 development boards. Code examples that run from internal RAM are also provided for completeness. These code examples provide a starting point for code development, if desired. Project collateral and source code discussed in this application report can be downloaded from the following URL: http://www-s.ti.com/sc/techlit/spra958.zip. Note that the issues discussed in this application report apply directly to current members of the TMS320F28xxx DSP family, specifically: F2810 F2810, F2811 F2811, F2812 F2812, F2801 F2801, F2801-60 F2801-60, F2802 F2802, F2802-60 F2802-60, F2806 F2806, F2808 F2808, F2809 F2809, F28015 F28015, F28016 F28016, F28044 F28044, F28232 F28232, F28234 F28234, F28235 F28235, F28332 F28332, F28334 F28334, and F28335 F28335 devices. Applicability to future devices in the TMS320F28xxx family, although quite likely, is not guaranteed. In addition, the code and techniques presented in this application report for DSP/BIOS projects were developed on Code Composer Studio v3.3.81.5 using C-compiler v5.1.0 and DSP/BIOS v5.33. It is always suggested that the reader upgrade to the latest version. However, keep in mind that future versions of DSP/BIOS may have differences that make some of the items discussed in this report unnecessary (although in all likelihood backwards compatibility will be maintained, so that the techniques discussed here should still work). Finally, this application report does not provide a tutorial on writing and building code for the F28xxx DSP. It is assumed that the reader already has at least the main framework of their application code running from RAM, probably using the Code Composer Studio debugger to perform the code download.

The on-chip flash usually eliminates the need for external non-volatile memory and a host processor from which to bootload. Configuring an application to run from flash memory is a relatively easy matter provided that one follow a few simple steps. This report covers the major concerns and steps needed to properly configure application software for execution from internal flash memory. Requirements for both DSP/BIOS and non-DSP/BIOS projects are presented. Some performance considerations and techniques are also discussed. Note that the issues discussed in this application report apply directly to current members of the TMS320F28xxx DSP family. The term F28xxx here, and throughout the remainder of this document, refers specifically to the F2810 F2810, F2811 F2811, F2812 F2812, F2801 F2801, F2801-60 F2801-60, F2802 F2802, F2802-60 F2802-60, F2806 F2806, F2808 F2808, F2809 F2809, F28015 F28015, F28016 F28016, F28044 F28044, F28232 F28232, F28234 F28234, F28235 F28235, F28332 F28332, F28334 F28334, and F28335 F28335 devices. Applicability to future devices in the TMS320F28xxx family, although quite likely, is not guaranteed. In addition, the code and techniques presented in this application report for DSP/BIOS projects were developed on Code Composer Studio v3.3.81.5 using C-compiler v5.1.0 and DSP/BIOS v5.33. It is always suggested that the reader upgrade to the latest version. However, keep in mind that future versions of DSP/BIOS may have differences that make some of the items discussed in this report unnecessary (although in all likelihood backwards compatibility will be maintained, so that the techniques discussed here should still work). Finally, this application report does not provide a tutorial on writing and building code for the F28xx DSP. It is assumed that the reader already has at least the main framework of their application code running from RAM, probably using the CCS debugger to perform the code download. This report only identifies the special items that must be considered when moving the application into on-chip flash memory. 2 Creating a User Linker Command File 2.1 Non-DSP/BIOS Projects In non-DSP/BIOS applications, the user linker command file will be where most memory is defined, and where the linking of most sections is specified. The format of this file is no different than the linker command file you are currently using to run your application from RAM. The difference will be in where you link the sections (to be discussed in Section 3). More information on linker command files can be found in reference [9]. The non-DSP/BIOS code projects that accompany this application report contain linker command files that can be used for reference. The DSP281x, DSP280x, DSP2804x, and DSP2833x peripheral header files contain linker command files named DSP281x_Headers_nonBIOS.cmd, DSP280x_Headers_nonBIOS.cmd, DSP2804x_Headers_nonBIOS.cmd, and DSP2833x_Headers_nonBIOS.cmd respectively (see references [15-18]). These files contains linker MEMORY and SECTIONS declarations for linking the peripheral register structures. Simply add the appropriate one of these linker command files to your code project in addition to your user linker command file. Running an Application from Internal Flash Memory on the TMS320F28xxx DSP 3 SPRA958H SPRA958H In general, the order of the linker command files is unimportant since during a project build, CCS evaluates the MEMORY section of every linker command file before evaluating the SECTIONS section of any linker command file. This ensures that all memories are defined before linking any sections to those memories. However, advanced users may need manual control over the order of linker command file evaluation in some rare situations. This can be specified within CCS on the Project Build_Options, Link_Order tab. 2.2 DSP/BIOS Projects The DSP/BIOS configuration tool generates a linker command file that specifies how to link all DSP/BIOS generated sections, and by default all C-compiler generated sections. When running your application from RAM, this linker command file may be the only one in use. However, when executing from flash memory, there will likely be a need to generate and link one or more user defined sections. In particular, any code that configures the on-chip flash control registers (e.g. flash wait-states) cannot execute from flash. In addition, one may want to run certain time critical functions from RAM (instead of flash) to maximize performance. A user linker command file must be created to handle these user defined sections. CCS supports having more than one linker command file in a project. Hence, all one needs to do is add both the user linker command file, as well as the DSP/BIOS generated linker command file, to their project. In general, the order of the linker command files is unimportant since during a project build, CCS evaluates the MEMORY section of every linker command file before evaluating the SECTIONS section of any linker command file. This ensures that all memories are defined before linking any sections to those memories. However, advanced users may need manual control over the order of linker command file evaluation in some rare situations (for example, to preempt and override DSP/BIOS linkage of a section). This can be specified within CCS on the Project Build_Options, Link_Order tab. The DSP281x, DSP280x, DSP2804x, and DSP2833x peripheral header files contain linker command files named DSP281x_Headers_nonBIOS.cmd, DSP280x_Headers_nonBIOS.cmd, DSP2804x_Headers_nonBIOS.cmd, and DSP2833x_Headers_nonBIOS.cmd respectively (see references [15-18]). These file contains linker MEMORY and SECTIONS declarations for linking the peripheral register structures. Simply add the appropriate one of these linker command files to your code project as well. 3 Where to Link the Sections Two basic section types exist: initialized, and uninitialized. Initialized sections must contain valid values at device power-up. For example, code and constants are found in initialized sections. When designing a stand-alone embedded system with the F28xxx DSP (e.g., no emulator or debugger in use, no host processor present to perform bootloading), all initialized sections must be linked to non-volatile memory (e.g., on-chip flash). An uninitialized section does not contain valid values at device power-up. For example, variables are found in uninitialized sections. Code will write values to the variable locations during code execution. Therefore, uninitialized sections must be linked to volatile memory (e.g., RAM). 4 Running an Application from Internal Flash Memory on the TMS320F28xxx DSP SPRA958H SPRA958H It is suggested that the -w linker option be invoked. The -w option will produce a warning if the linker encounters any sections in your project that have not been explicitly specified for linking in a linker command file. When the linker encounters an unspecified section, it uses a default allocation algorithm to link the section into memory (it will link the section to the first defined memory with enough available free space). This is almost always risky, and can lead to unreliable and unpredictable code behavior. The -w option will identify any unspecified sections (e.g., those accidentally forgotten by the user) so that the user can make the necessary addition to the appropriate linker command file. The -w option can be selected in CCS on the Project Build_Options menu, Linker tab, select the Advanced category, and then check the -w option box. It is checked by default for new projects. CAUTION: It is important that the large memory model be used with the C-compiler (as opposed to the small memory model). Small memory model requires certain initialized sections to be linked to non-volatile memory in the lower 64Kw of addressable space. However, no flash memory is present in this region on any F28xxx devices, and this will likely be true for future F28xxx devices as well. Therefore, large memory model should be used. In Code Composer Studio, the large memory model is on the Project Build_Options menu. Select the Compiler tab, choose the Advanced category, and check the -ml option box. For non-DSP/BIOS projects, one should include the large memory model C-compiler runtime support library into their code project. For the fixed-point devices, this is library rts2800_ml.lib (as opposed to rts2800.lib, which is for the small memory model). For the floating-point devices, this is file rts2800_fpu32.lib for plain C code, or rts2800_fpu32_eh.lib for C+ code (there are no small memory model libraries for the floating-point devices). For DSP/BIOS projects, DSP/BIOS will take care of including the required library. The user should not include any runtime support library in a DSP/BIOS project. 3.1 Non-DSP/BIOS Projects The compiler uses a number of specific sections. These sections are the same whether you are running from RAM or flash. However, when running a program from flash, all initialized sections must be linked to non-volatile memory, whereas all uninitialized sections must be linked to volatile memory. Table 1 shows where to link each compiler generated section on the F28xxx DSP. Information on the function of each section can be found in reference [5]. Any user created initialized section should be linked to flash (e.g., those sections created using the CODE_SECTION compiler pragma), whereas any user created uninitialized sections should be linked to RAM (e.g., those sections created using the DATA_SECTION compiler pragma).

It generally is not used. Instead, the user typically creates their own branch instruction to point to the starting point of the code (see Sections 6 and 7). When not in use, the .reset section should be omitted from the code build by using a DSECT modifier in the linker command file. For example: /* * User's linker command file */ SECTIONS { .reset } 6 : > FLASH, PAGE = 0, TYPE = DSECT Running an Application from Internal Flash Memory on the TMS320F28xxx DSP SPRA958H SPRA958H 3.2 DSP/BIOS Projects The memory section manager in the DSP/BIOS configuration tool allows one to specify where to link the various DSP/BIOS and C-compiler generated sections. Table 2 indicates where the sections shown on each tab of the memory section manager should be linked (i.e., RAM or FLASH). Note that this information has been tabulated specifically for DSP/BIOS v5.33. Later versions of DSP/BIOS, although quite likely to be the same, may have some differences. The reader should check the version they are using and simply be aware of potential differences while proceeding. To check your DSP/BIOS version from within CCS, go to the Help About menu, click the Component_Manager button, and view the TMS320C28XX TMS320C28XX DSP/BIOS version under the Target_Content_(DSP/BIOS) tree.

See Section 4.3 for details on performing this copy. 2 The PIEVECT RAM is a specific block of RAM associated with the Peripheral Interrupt Expansion (PIE) peripheral. On current F28xxx devices, the PIE RAM is a 256x16 block starting at address 0x000D00 in data space. For other devices, confirm the address in the device datasheet. The memory section manager in the DSP/BIOS configuration tool should already have a pre-defined memory named PIEVECT. The .hwi_vec section must be copied by the user from its load address (specified on the memory section manager Load_Address Tab) to its run address (specified on the memory section manager BIOS_Code Tab) at runtime. See Section 4.2 for details on performing this copy. 3 The specific flash memory selected as the load address for this section should be the same flash memory selected previously as the run address for the section (e.g., on the BIOS_Data, BIOS_Code, or Compiler_Sections tab). 8 Running an Application from Internal Flash Memory on the TMS320F28xxx DSP SPRA958H SPRA958H 4 Copying Sections from Flash to RAM 4.1 Copying the Interrupt Vectors (non-DSP/BIOS projects only) The Peripheral Interrupt Expansion (PIE) module manages interrupt requests on F28xxx devices. At power-up, all interrupt vectors must be located in non-volatile memory (i.e., flash), but copied to the PIEVECT RAM as part of the device initialization procedure in your code. The PIEVECT RAM is a specific block of RAM, which on current F28xxx devices is a 256x16 block starting at address 0x000D00 in data space. Several approaches exist for linking the interrupt vectors to flash and then copying them to the PIEVECT RAM at runtime. One approach is to create a constant C-structure of function pointers that contains all 128 32-bit vectors. If using the DSP28xx peripheral structures (see references [15-18]), such a structure, called PieVectTableInit, has already been created in the corresponding file DSP28xxx_PieVect.c. Since this structure is declared using the const type qualifier, it will be placed in the .econst section by the compiler. One simply needs to copy this structure to the PIEVECT RAM at runtime. The C-compiler runtime support library contains a memory copy function called memcpy() that can be used to perform the copy task. This function is used as follows: /* * User's C-source file */ /* * NOTE: This function assumes use of the DSP28xxx Peripheral Header * File structures (see References [15-18]). */ #include void main(void) { /* Initialize the PIE_RAM */ PieCtrlRegs.PIECTRL.bit.ENPIE = 0; // Disable the PIE asm(" EALLOW"); // Enable EALLOW protected register access memcpy(void *)0x000D00, &PieVectTableInit, 256); asm(" EDIS"); // Disable EALLOW protected register access } The above example uses a hard coded address for the start of the PIE RAM, specifically 0x000D00. If this is objectionable (as hard coded addresses are not good programming practice), one can use a DATA_SECTION pragma to create an uninitialized dummy variable, and link this variable to the PIE RAM. The name of the dummy variable can then be used in place of the hard coded address. For example, when using any of the DSP28xxx device peripheral structures, an uninitialized structure called PieVectTable is created and linked over the PIEVECT RAM. The memcpy() instruction in the previous example can be replaced by: memcpy(&PieVectTable, &PieVectTableInit, 256); Note that the length is 256. The memcpy function copies 16-bit words (as opposed to copying 128 32-bit words). Running an Application from Internal Flash Memory on the TMS320F28xxx DSP 9 SPRA958H SPRA958H 4.2 Copying the .hwi_vec Section (DSP/BIOS projects only) The DSP/BIOS .hwi_vec section contains the interrupt vectors, and must be loaded to flash but run from RAM. The user is responsible for copying this section from its load address to its run address. This is typically done in main(). The DSP/BIOS configuration tool generates global symbols that can be accessed by code in order to determine the load address, run address, and length of the .hwi_vec section. These symbol names are: hwi_vec_loadstart hwi_vec_loadend hwi_vec_runstart Each symbol is self-explanatory from its name. Note that the symbols are not pointers, but rather symbolically reference the 16-bit data value found at the corresponding location (i.e., start or end) of the section. The C-compiler runtime support library contains a memory copy function called memcpy() that can be used to perform the copy task. A C-code example of how to use this function to perform the section copy follows. Note that the PIEVECT RAM is EALLOW protected. Therefore, inline EALLOW and EDIS assembly instructions must bracket the memory copy of the .hwi_vec section, as shown. /* * User's C-source file */ #include extern unsigned int hwi_vec_loadstart; extern unsigned int hwi_vec_loadend; extern unsigned int hwi_vec_runstart; void main(void) { /* Initialize the .hwi_vec section */ asm(" EALLOW"); /* Enable EALLOW protected register access */ memcpy(&hwi_vec_runstart, &hwi_vec_loadstart, &hwi_vec_loadend - &hwi_vec_loadstart); asm(" EDIS"); /* Disable EALLOW protected register access */ } 4.3 Copying the .trcdata Section (DSP/BIOS projects only) The DSP/BIOS .trcdata sections must be loaded to flash, but run from RAM. The user is responsible for copying this section from its load address to its run address. However, unlike the .hwi_vec section, the copying of .trcdata must be performed prior to main(). This is because DSP/BIOS modifies the contents of .trcdata during DSP/BIOS initialization (which also occurs prior to main(). 10 Running an Application from Internal Flash Memory on the TMS320F28xxx DSP SPRA958H SPRA958H The DSP/BIOS configuration tool provides for a user initialization function which can be utilized to perform the .trcdata section copy prior to both main() and DSP/BIOS initialization. This can be found in the project configuration file under System - Global Settings Properties, as shown in Figure 1. Check this box Figure 1. Enter your function name here (note the leading underscore) Specifying the User Init Function in the DSP/BIOS Configuration tool What remains is to create the user initialization function. The DSP/BIOS configuration tool generates global symbols that can be accessed by code in order to determine the load address, run address, and length of each section. These symbol names are: trcdata_loadstart trcdata_loadend trcdata_runstart Each symbol is self-explanatory from its name. Note that the symbols are not pointers, but rather symbolically reference the 16-bit data value found at the corresponding location (i.e., start or end) of the section. The C-compiler runtime support library contains a memory copy function called memcpy() that can be used to perform the copy task. A C-code example of a user init function that performs the .trcdata section copy follows. Running an Application from Internal Flash Memory on the TMS320F28xxx DSP 11 SPRA958H SPRA958H /* * User's C-source file */ #include extern unsigned int trcdata_loadstart; extern unsigned int trcdata_loadend; extern unsigned int trcdata_runstart; void UserInit(void) { /* Initialize the .trcdata section before main() */ memcpy(&trcdata_runstart, &trcdata_loadstart, &trcdata_loadend - &trcdata_loadstart); } 4.4 Initializing the Flash Control Registers (DSP/BIOS and non-DSP/BIOS projects) The initialization code for the flash control registers, FOPT, FPWR, FSTDBYWAIT, FACTIVEWAIT, FBANKWAIT, and FOTPWAIT, cannot be executed from the flash memory or unpredictable results may occur. Therefore, the initialization function for the flash control registers must be copied from flash (its load address) to RAM (its run address) at runtime. CAUTION: The flash control registers are protected by the Code Security Module (CSM). If the CSM is secured, you must run the flash register initialization code from CSM secured RAM (e.g. L0 through L3 SARAM, see the device data sheet for your specific device) or the initialization code will be unable to access the flash registers. Note that the CSM is always secured at device reset, although the ROM bootloader will unlock it if you are using dummy passwords of 0xFFFF. The CODE_SECTION pragma of the C compiler can be used to create a separately linkable section for the flash initialization function. For example, suppose the flash register configuration is to be performed in the C function InitFlash(), and it is desired to place this function into a linkable section called secureRamFuncs. The following C-code example shows proper use of the CODE_SECTION pragma along with an example configuration of the flash registers: 12 Running an Application from Internal Flash Memory on the TMS320F28xxx DSP SPRA958H SPRA958H /* * User's C-source file */ /* * NOTE: The InitFlash() function shown here is just an example of an * initialization for the flash control registers. Consult the device * datasheet for production wait state values and any other relevant * information. Wait-states shown here are specific to current F280x * devices operating at 100 MHz. * NOTE: This function assumes use of the DSP28xxx Peripheral Header * File structures (see References [15-18]). */ #pragma CODE_SECTION(InitFlash, "secureRamFuncs") void InitFlash(void) { asm(" EALLOW"); // Enable EALLOW protected register access FlashRegs.FPWR.bit.PWR = 3; // Flash set to active mode FlashRegs.FSTATUS.bit.V3STAT = 1; // Clear the 3VSTAT bit FlashRegs.FSTDBYWAIT.bit.STDBYWAIT = 0x01FF; // Sleep to standby cycles FlashRegs.FACTIVEWAIT.bit.ACTIVEWAIT = 0x01FF; // Standby to active cycles FlashRegs.FBANKWAIT.bit.RANDWAIT = 3; // F280x Random access wait states FlashRegs.FBANKWAIT.bit.PAGEWAIT = 3; // F280x Paged access wait states FlashRegs.FOTPWAIT.bit.OTPWAIT = 5; // F280x OTP wait states FlashRegs.FOPT.bit.ENPIPE = 1; // Enable the flash pipeline asm(" EDIS"); // Disable EALLOW protected register access /* Force a complete pipeline flush to ensure that the write to the last register configured occurs before returning. Safest thing is to wait 8 full cycles. */ asm(" RPT #6 || NOP"); } //end of InitFlash() The section secureRamFuncs can then be linked using the user linker command file. This section will require separate load and run addresses. Further, we will want to have the linker generate some global symbols that can be used to determine the load address, run address, and length of the section. This information is needed to perform the copy from the sections load address to its run address. The user linker command file would appear as follows: /* * User's linker command file */ SECTIONS { /* User Defined Sections */ secureRamFuncs: LOAD = FLASH, PAGE = 0 RUN = SECURE_RAM, PAGE = 0 RUN_START(_secureRamFuncs_runstart), LOAD_START(_secureRamFuncs_loadstart), LOAD_END(_secureRamFuncs_loadend) } Running an Application from Internal Flash Memory on the TMS320F28xxx DSP 13 SPRA958H SPRA958H In this example, the memories FLASH and SECURE_RAM are assumed to have been defined either in the MEMORY section of the user linker command file (for non-DSP/BIOS projects) or in the memory section manager of the DSP/BIOS configuration tool (for DSP/BIOS projects). The PAGE designation for these memories should match that of the memory definition. The above example assumes both memories have been declared on PAGE 0 (program memory space). The RUN_START, LOAD_START, and LOAD_END directives will generate global symbols with the specified names for the corresponding addresses. Note the use of the leading underscore on the global symbol definitions (e.g., _secureRamFuncs_runstart) Finally, the section must be copied from flash to RAM at runtime. As in Sections 4.1 - 4.3, the function memcpy() from the compiler runtime support library can be used: /* * User's C-source file */ #include extern unsigned int secureRamFuncs_loadstart; extern unsigned int secureRamFuncs_loadend; extern unsigned int secureRamFuncs_runstart; void main(void) { /* Copy the secureRamFuncs section */ memcpy(&secureRamFuncs_runstart, &secureRamFuncs_loadstart, &secureRamFuncs_loadend - &secureRamFuncs_loadstart); /* Initialize the on-chip flash registers */ InitFlash(); } 4.5 Maximizing Performance by Executing Time-critical Functions from RAM (DSP/BIOS and non-DSP/BIOS projects) The on-chip RAM memory on current F28xxx devices provides code execution performance of 150 MIPS (millions of instructions per second) for 150 MHz devices, 100 MIPS for 100 MHz devices, and 60 MIPS for 60 MHz devices. However, the on-chip flash memory on these devices provides effective code execution performance that is slightly less: roughly 90 ­ 100 MIPS at 150 MHz, roughly 85 ­ 90 MIPS on 100 MHz devices, and roughly 55 MIPS on 60 MHz devices. It may therefore be desirable to run certain time-critical or computationally demanding routines from on-chip RAM. However, in a standalone embedded system, all code must initially reside in non-volatile memory. Therefore, separate load and run addresses must be setup for those functions running from RAM, and a copy must be performed to move them from the onchip flash to the RAM at runtime. To do this, apply the same procedure previously described in Section 4.4. Using the CODE_SECTION pragma, one can add multiple functions to the same linkable section. The entire section can then be assigned to run from a particular RAM block, and the user can copy the entire section to RAM all at once, as discussed in Section 4.4. If finer linking granularity is required, separate section names can be created for each function. 14 Running an Application from Internal Flash Memory on the TMS320F28xxx DSP SPRA958H SPRA958H 4.6 Maximizing Performance by Linking Critical Global Constants to RAM (DSP/BIOS and non-DSP/BIOS projects) Constants are those data structures declared using the C language const type modifier. The compiler places all constants in the .econst section (large memory model assumed). While special pipelining on current F28xxx devices accelerates effective flash performance for code execution, accessing data constants located in the on-chip FLASH can take multiple cycles per access. Typical flash wait-states will be 5 cycles on a 150 MHz device, 3 cycles on a 100 MHz device, and 2 cycles on a 60 MHz device (see the device datasheet for flash wait-state specifications). It may therefore be desirable to keep heavily accessed constants and constant tables in on-chip RAM. However, a standalone embedded system requires that all initialized data (e.g., constants) initially reside in non-volatile memory. Therefore, separate load and run addresses must be setup for those constants you wish to access in RAM, and a copy must be performed to move them from the on-chip flash to the RAM at runtime. Two different approaches for accomplishing this will be presented. 4.6.1 Method 1: Running All Constant Arrays from RAM This approach involves specifying separate load and run addresses for the entire .econst section. The advantage of this approach is ease of use, while the disadvantage is excessive RAM usage (there may be only a few constants that require high-speed access, but with this method all constants are relocated into RAM). 4.6.1.1 Non-DSP/BIOS Projects The same approach discussed in Section 4.4 can be used. Simply specify separate load and run address for the .econst section in the user linker command file, and then add code to your project to copy the entire .econst section to RAM at runtime. For example: /* * User's linker command file */ SECTIONS { .econst: LOAD = FLASH, PAGE = 0 RUN = RAM, PAGE = 1 RUN_START(_econst_runstart), LOAD_START(_econst_loadstart), LOAD_END(_econst_loadend) } Running an Application from Internal Flash Memory on the TMS320F28xxx DSP 15 SPRA958H SPRA958H /* * User's C-source file */ #include extern unsigned int econst_loadstart; extern unsigned int econst_loadend; extern unsigned int econst_runstart; void main(void) { /* Copy the .econst section */ memcpy(&econst_runstart, &econst_loadstart, &econst_loadend - &econst_loadstart); } 4.6.1.2 DSP/BIOS Projects Although the DSP/BIOS configuration tool allows the specification of different load and run addresses for the .econst section, it will not generate the code accessible labels that are needed to perform the memory copy. Therefore, the user must preemptively link the .econst section in the user linker command file before the DSP/BIOS generated linker command file is evaluated. The user linker command file would appear as follows: /* * User's linker command file (DSP/BIOS Projects) */ SECTIONS { /* Preemptively link the .econst section */ /* Must come before DSP/BIOS linker command file is evaluated */ .econst: LOAD = FLASH, PAGE = 0 RUN = RAM, PAGE = 1 RUN_START(_econst_runstart), LOAD_START(_econst_loadstart), LOAD_END(_econst_loadend) } To guarantee that the user linker command file is evaluated before the DSP/BIOS generated linker command file during the project build, one must specify the link order in CCS. This is done by clicking on Project Build_Options, selecting the Link_Order tab, and then specifying the appropriate order for the linker command files in question. Figure 2 shows an example of this, where F2808 F2808_BIOS_flash.cmd is the name of the user linker command file, and F2808 F2808_example_BIOS_flashcfg.cmd is the name of the DSP/BIOS generated linker command file. 16 Running an Application from Internal Flash Memory on the TMS320F28xxx DSP SPRA958H SPRA958H Figure 2. Specifying the Link Order In Code Composer Studio Note that since the DSP/BIOS generated linker command file will also attempt to link the .econst section, the linker will give a warning stating "Multiple definitions of SECTION named '.econst'." This warning can be safely ignored. The .econst section can then be copied from its load address to its run address as follows: Running an Application from Internal Flash Memory on the TMS320F28xxx DSP 17 SPRA958H SPRA958H /* * User's C-source file */ #include extern unsigned int econst_loadstart; extern unsigned int econst_loadend; extern unsigned int econst_runstart; void main(void) { /* Copy the .econst section */ memcpy(&econst_runstart, &econst_loadstart, &econst_loadend - &econst_loadstart); } 4.6.2 Method 2: Running a Specific Constant Array from RAM (DSP/BIOS and non-DSP/BIOS projects) This method involves selectively copying constants from flash to RAM at runtime. The procedure to accomplish this is similar to that of Method 1, except that only selected constants are placed in a named section and copied to RAM (rather than copying all constants to RAM). Suppose for example that one wants to create a 5 word constant array called table[ ] to be run from RAM. A DATA_SECTION pragmas used to place table[ ] in a user defined section called ramconsts. The C-source file would appear as follows: /* * User's C-source file */ #pragma DATA_SECTION(table, "ramconsts") const int table[5] = {1,2,3,4,5}; void main(void) { } The section ramconsts is linked to load to flash but run from RAM using the user linker command file, and global symbols are generated to facilitate the memory copy. The user linker command file would appear as follows: 18 Running an Application from Internal Flash Memory on the TMS320F28xxx DSP SPRA958H SPRA958H /* * User's linker command file */ SECTIONS { /* User Defined Sections */ ramconsts: LOAD = FLASH, PAGE = 0 RUN = RAM, PAGE = 1 LOAD_START(_ramconsts_loadstart), LOAD_END(_ramconsts_loadend), RUN_START(_ramconsts_runstart) } Finally, table[ ] must be copied from its load address to its run address at runtime: /* * User's C-source file */ #include extern unsigned int ramconsts_loadstart; extern unsigned int ramconsts_loadend; extern unsigned int ramconsts_runstart; void main(void) { /* Initialize the ramconsts section */ memcpy(&ramconsts_runstart, &ramconsts_loadstart, &ramconsts_loadend - &ramconsts_loadstart); } 5 Programming the Code Security Module Passwords (DSP/BIOS and non-DSP/BIOS projects) The CSM module on F28xxx devices provides protection against unwanted copying of your software. On current F28xxx devices, the entire flash, the OTP memory, and the L0 through L3 SARAM blocks are secured by the CSM (the flash configuration registers are secured as well). When secured, only code executing from secured memory can access data (read or write) in other secured memory. Code executing from unsecured memory cannot access data in secured memory. Detailed information on the CSM module can be found in references [6-8]. Running an Application from Internal Flash Memory on the TMS320F28xxx DSP 19 SPRA958H SPRA958H The CSM uses a 128-bit password comprised of 8 individual 16-bit words. On current F28xxx devices, these passwords are stored in the upper most 8 words of the flash (e.g., addresses 0x3F7FF8 through 0x3F7FFF on F281x, F280x, and F280xx devices, and addresses 0x33FFF8 through 0x33FFFF on F2833x devices). During development, it is recommended that dummy passwords of 0xFFFF be used. When dummy passwords are used, only dummy reads of the password locations are needed to unsecure the CSM. Placing dummy passwords into the password locations is easy to do since 0xFFFF will be the state of these locations after the flash is erased during flash programming. Users need only avoid linking any sections to the password addresses in their code project, and the passwords will retain the 0xFFFF. After development, one may want to use real passwords. In addition, to properly secure the CSM module on current F28xxx devices, values of 0x0000 must be programmed into the 118 flash addresses beginning 120 words prior to the start of the CSM passwords, e.g., addresses 0x3F7F80 through 0x3F7FF5 on F281x, F280x, and F280xx devices, and addresses 0x33FF80 through 0x33FFF5 on F2833x devices (see references [1-3]). An easy way to accomplish both of these tasks is with a little simple assembly language programming. The following example assembly code file specifies the desired password values and places them in a named initialized section called passwords. It also creates a named initialized section called csm_rsvd that contains all 0x0000 values and is of proper length to fit in the aforementioned 118 word address ranges. See reference [9] for more information on the assembly language directives used. * * File: passwords.asm * * * Dummy passwords of 0xFFFF are shown. The user can change these to * desired values. * * CAUTION: Do not use 0x0000 for all 8 passwords or the CSM module will * be permanently locked.

Replace these values with your desired passwords. 20 Running an Application from Internal Flash Memory on the TMS320F28xxx DSP SPRA958H SPRA958H CAUTION: Do not use 0x0000 for all 8 passwords. Doing so will permanently lock the CSM module! See references [6-8] for more information. The passwords and csm_rsvd sections should be placed in memory with the user linker command file. For non-DSP/BIOS projects, the user should define memories named (for example) PASSWORDS and CSM_RSVD on PAGE 0 in the MEMORY portion of the user linker command file. The sections passwords and csm_rsvd can then be linked to these memories. The following example applies to current F28xxx devices (for other devices, consult the device datasheet to confirm the addresses of the password and CSM reserved locations). /* * User's user linker command file (non-DSP/BIOS Projects) */ MEMORY { PAGE 0: /* Program Memory */ CSM_RSVD : origin = 0x3F7F80, length = 0x000076 PASSWORDS : origin = 0x3F7FF8, length = 0x000008 PAGE 1: /* Data Memory */ } SECTIONS { /* Code Security Password Locations */ passwords: > PASSWORDS, PAGE = 0 csm_rsvd: > CSM_RSVD, PAGE = 0 } For DSP/BIOS projects, the user should define the memories named (for example) PASSWORDS and CSM_RSVD using the memory section manager of the DSP/BIOS configuration tool. The two figures that follow show the DSP/BIOS memory section manager properties for these memories on current F28xxx devices. For other devices, consult the device datasheet to confirm the correct addresses and lengths. Running an Application from Internal Flash Memory on the TMS320F28xxx DSP 21 SPRA958H SPRA958H Figure 3. Figure 4. 22 DSP/BIOS MEM Properties for CSM Password Locations DSP/BIOS MEM Properties for CSM Reserved Locations Running an Application from Internal Flash Memory on the TMS320F28xxx DSP SPRA958H SPRA958H The sections passwords and csm_rsvd can then be linked to these memories in the user linker command file. For DSP/BIOS projects, the user linker command file would appear as: /* * User's linker command file (DSP/BIOS Projects) */ SECTIONS { /* Code Security Password Locations */ passwords: > PASSWORDS, PAGE = 0 csm_rsvd: > CSM_RSVD, PAGE = 0 } 6 Executing Your Code from Flash after a DSP Reset (DSP/BIOS and non-DSP/BIOS projects) F28xxx devices contain a ROM bootloader that can transfer code execution to the flash after a device reset. The ROM bootloader is detailed in references [10-12]. When the boot mode selection pins are configured for "Jump to Flash" mode, the ROM bootloader will branch to the instruction located at address 0x3F7FF6 in the flash (this is for F280x and F281x devices - see device datasheet for your specific device). The user should place an instruction that branches to the beginning of their code at this address. Recall that the CSM passwords begin at address 0x3F7FF8 (again, for F280x and F281x), so that exactly 2 words are available to hold the branch instruction. Not coincidentally, a long branch (LB in assembly code) occupies 2 words. In general, the branch instruction will branch to the start of the C-environment initialization routine located in the C-compiler runtime support library. The entry symbol for this routine is _c_int00. No C code can be executed until this setup routine is run. Alternately, there is sometimes a need to execute a small amount of assembly code prior to starting your C application (for example, to disable the watchdog timer peripheral). In this case, the branch instruction should branch to the start of your assembly code. Regardless, there is a need to properly locate this branch instruction in the flash. The easiest way to do this is with assembly code. The following example creates a named initialized section called codestart that contains a long branch to the C-environment setup routine. The codestart section should be placed in memory with the user linker command file. * * CodeStartBranch.asm * .ref _c_int00 .sect "codestart" LB _c_int00 ;branch to start of code .end ;end of file CodeStartBranch.asm Running an Application from Internal Flash Memory on the TMS320F28xxx DSP 23 SPRA958H SPRA958H For non-DSP/BIOS projects, the user should define a memory named (for example) BEGIN_FLASH on PAGE 0 in the MEMORY portion of the user linker command file. The section codestart can then be linked to this memory. The following example applies to F281x, F280x, and F280xx devices. For other F28xxx devices, consult the device datasheet to confirm the boot to flash target address. /* * User's linker command file (non-DSP/BIOS Projects) */ MEMORY { PAGE 0: /* Program Memory */ BEGIN_FLASH : origin = 0x3F7FF6, length = 0x000002 PAGE 1: /* Data Memory */ } SECTIONS { /* Jump to Flash boot mode entry point */ codestart: > BEGIN_FLASH, PAGE = 0 } For DSP/BIOS projects, the user should define the memory named (for example) BEGIN_FLASH using the memory section manager of the DSP/BIOS configuration tool. Figure 5 shows the memory section manager properties for this memory on F281x, F280x, and F280xx devices. For other devices, consult the datasheet to confirm the boot to flash target address. Figure 5. 24 DSP/BIOS MEM Properties for Jump to Flash Entry Point Running an Application from Internal Flash Memory on the TMS320F28xxx DSP SPRA958H SPRA958H The section codestart can then be linked to this memory in the user linker command file. For DSP/BIOS projects, the linker command file would appear as: /* * User's linker command file (DSP/BIOS projects) */ SECTIONS { /* Jump to Flash boot mode entry point */ codestart: > BEGIN_FLASH, PAGE = 0 } 7 Disabling the Watchdog Timer During C-Environment Boot (DSP/BIOS and non-DSP/BIOS projects) The C-environment initialization function in the C compiler runtime support library, _c_int00, performs the initialization of global and static variables. This involves a data copy from the .cinit section (located in on-chip flash memory) to the .ebss section (located in RAM) for each initialized global variable. For example, when a global variable is declared in source code as: int x=5; the "5" is placed into the initialized section .cinit, whereas space is reserved in the .ebss section for the symbol "x." The _c_int00 routine then copies the "5" to location "x" at runtime. When a large number of initialized global and static variables are present in the software, the watchdog timer can timeout before the C-environment boot routine can finish and call main() (where the watchdog can be either configured and serviced, or disabled). This problem may not manifest itself during code development in RAM since the data copy from a .cinit section linked to RAM will occur at a fast pace. However, when the .cinit section is linked to internal flash, copying each data word will take multiple cycles since the internal flash memory defaults to the maximum number of wait-states (wait-states are not configured until the user code reaches main(). In addition, the code performing the data copying is executing from flash, which further increases the time needed to complete the data copy (the code fetches and data reads must share access to the flash). Combined with the fact that the watchdog timeout period defaults to its minimum possible value, a watchdog timeout becomes a real possibility. There is an easy method to detect this problem using CCS. To test for a watchdog timeout: 1. Load the symbols for the code you have programmed into the flash (click File Load_Symbols Load_Symbols_Only). 2. Reset the DSP (click Debug Reset_CPU). 3. Restart the DSP (click Debug Restart) (this step is not necessary if the bootloader is configured for "Jump to Flash" mode). 4. Run to main() (click Debug Go_Main). If you do not get to main(), it is pretty likely that the watchdog is expiring before the C-environment boot routine is able to complete. Running an Application from Internal Flash Memory on the TMS320F28xxx DSP 25 SPRA958H SPRA958H The easiest method for correcting the watchdog timeout problem is to disable the watchdog before starting the C-environment boot routine. The watchdog can later be re-enabled after reaching main() and starting your normal code execution flow. The watchdog is disabled by setting the WDDIS bit to a 1 in the WDCR register. To disable the watchdog before the boot routine, assembly code must be used (since the C environment is not yet setup). In Section 6, the codestart assembly code section implemented a branch instruction that jumped to the C-environment initialization routine, _c_int00. To disable the watchdog, this branch should instead jump to watchdog disabling code, which can then branch to the _c_int00 routine.

No guarantee is made about their suitability for application usage. These examples were built and tested using C2000 C2000 Code Composer Studio version v3.3.81.5, C-compiler v5.1.0, and DSP/BIOS v5.33. Although the focus of this report is running code from flash, the RAM examples are provided for completeness. The projects were developed on the eZdspF2812, eZdspF2808, and eZdspF28335 development boards. However, they will also run on other F28xxx board as follows: F281x examples: These will run on any F281x board as they run entirely from internal memory and use only the flash memory common to all three devices. If running on a different board, be aware that the code configures the GPIOA0/PWM1 and GPIOF14/XF GPIOF14/XF_XPLLDIS* pins as outputs. Also note that the code does configure the external memory interface on the F2812 F2812 as part of the DSP initialization process. Since most of the external memory interface does not exist on F2810 F2810 and F2811 F2811 devices (exception is the XCLKOUT pin), this initialization is not needed on these two devices (although it is harmless). F280x examples: These will run on any F2808 F2808 board. They can also be adapted to run on other F280x and F280xx boards by adjusting the memory definitions (RAM and Flash) in the .cmd file for non-DSP/BIOS projects, or the .tcf file for DSP/BIOS projects. The PLL setting may also need to be adjusted depending on the crystal or oscillator used on the board. If running on a different board, the user should be aware that the code configures the GPIO0/ePWM1A and GPIOF34 GPIOF34 pins as outputs. F2833x examples: These will run on any F28335 F28335 board. They can also be adapted to run on other F2833x or F2823x board by adjusting the memory definitions (RAM and Flash) in the .cmd file for non-DSP/BIOS projects, or the .tcf file for DSP/BIOS projects. The PLL setting may also need to be adjusted depending on the crystal or oscillator used on the board. Also, for F2823x devices, you should change the project build options in CCS to disable floating point support (go to ProjectBuild_Options, Advanced tab, change Floating Point Support from `FPU32 FPU32' to `None'). If running on a different board, the user should be aware that the code configures the GPIO0/ePWM1A and GPIOF32 GPIOF32 pins as outputs. Running an Application from Internal Flash Memory on the TMS320F28xxx DSP 27 SPRA958H SPRA958H The source code uses either the DSP281x Header File structures v1.11, the DSP280x Header File structures v1.60, or the DSP2833x Header File structures v1.20 for accessing peripheral registers on the F28xxx. All needed files from the header file packages are included here. However, the user is encouraged to download the complete header files packages for additional information. These are available on the TI website, http://www.ti.com (see references [15-18]). Each of the code projects perform the same functions: · · Enables the real-time emulation mode of Code Composer Studio. · Toggles the GPIOF14 GPIOF14 pin on the eZdspF2812 board, the GPIOF34 GPIOF34 pin on eZdspF2808, and the GPIO32 GPIO32 pin on the eZdspF28335 to blink the LED on the board. In non-DSP/BIOS projects, this is done in the ADCINT ISR. In DSP/BIOS projects, a periodic function is used. · Configures the ADC to sample on ADCINA0 channel at a 50 kHz rate. · Services the ADC interrupt. The ADC result is placed in a circular buffer of length 50 words. · Sends out 2 kHz symmetric PWM on either the PWM1 pin (for F281x), or the ePWM1A signal mapped to the GPIO0 pin (for F2808 F2808, F28335 F28335). · Configures the capture unit #1. On F2808 F2808 and F28335 F28335 devices, the eCAP1 signal is mapped to the GPIO5 pin. · 8.2 Illustrates F28xxx DSP initialization. The PLL is configured for net multiply by 5 operation. Services the capture #1 interrupt. Reads the capture result and computes the pulse width.

After compiling a project, the .out file will be located in the \projects\Debug directory. IMPORTANT: For the flash projects, the .out file CANNOT simply be loaded in the DSP using File->Load_Project in CCS. The flash memory must be PROGRAMMED using a flash programming utility. One such utility is the C2000 C2000 Flash Programming Plugin tool for Code Composer Studio, which comes installed with CCS v3.3 (see the `Tools' menu inside CCS). 2a) If using the RAM examples, the eZdsp board should be configured for "Jump to H0 SARAM" (F2812 F2812) or "Jump to M0 SARAM" (F2808 F2808, F28335 F28335) boot mode. Check the board jumpers/dipswitch to be: eZdspF2812: JP1 2-3 (MP/MC*) JP9 1-2 (PLL) JP7 2-3 (boot mode selection) JP8 2-3 (boot mode selection) JP11 1-2 (boot mode selection) JP12 2-3 (boot mode selection) eZdspF2808: DIP SW1: 1 = ON 2 = OFF 3 = ON eZdspF28335: DIP SW1: 1 = ON 2 = ON 3 = OFF 4 = ON If this does not seem to be working, check the reference manual for your eZdsp board to confirm the settings. Jumper/dip-switch settings may have changed if the eZdsp board was revised. Running an Application from Internal Flash Memory on the TMS320F28xxx DSP 35 SPRA958H SPRA958H 2b) If using the FLASH examples, the eZdsp board should be configured for "Jump to Flash" boot mode. Check the board jumpers/dip-switches to be: eZdspF2812: JP1 2-3 (MP/MC*) JP9 1-2 (PLL) JP7 1-2 (boot mode selection) JP8 don't care (boot mode selection) JP11 don't care (boot mode selection) JP12 don't care (boot mode selection) eZdspF2808: DIP SW1: 1 = OFF 2 = OFF 3 = OFF eZdspF28335: DIP SW1: 1 = OFF 2 = OFF 3 = OFF 4 = OFF If this does not seem to be working, check the reference manual for your eZdsp board to confirm the jumper settings. Jumper settings may have changed if the eZdsp board was revised. 3) The ram examples are linking sections in various places that may look unnecessary (e.g., the section ramfuncs is loaded to one ram area, and copied to and run from another ram area. On the surface, this look rather pointless. These things were done in preparation to build the flash project. In reality, a real embedded system cannot run on ram alone. It must have non-volatile memory someplace. Hence, in the flash system, you will see the same sections being loaded to flash, but copied to and run from ram. 4) There has not been too much attention given to where everything is linked. The goal in writing these example projects was to simply get them working. If these projects are used as a starting point for code development, the linking may need to be tuned to get better performance (e.g., to avoid memory block access contention, or to better manage memory block utilization). 5) For non-DSP/BIOS projects, a complete set of interrupt service routines are defined in the file DefaultIsr_nonBIOS.c. Each interrupt is executed directly in its hardware ISR. However, with the exception of the ADCINT and ECAP1INT (or CAPINT1 on F2812 F2812), each ISR actually executes an ESTOP0 instruction (emulation stop) to trap spurious interrupts during debug. Note that each ISR is using the "interrupt" keyword which tells the compiler to perform a context save/restore upon function entry/exit. 36 Running an Application from Internal Flash Memory on the TMS320F28xxx DSP SPRA958H SPRA958H 6) For DSP/BIOS projects, a complete set of (hardware) interrupt service routines are defined in the file DefaultIsr_BIOS.c. Each ISR is hooked to the desired interrupt using the HWI manager in the DSP/BIOS configuration tool. Also, the DSP/BIOS Interrupt Dispatcher is being used to handle the context save/restore, which is why the ISRs are not using the "interrupt" keyword (as in the non-DSP/BIOS case). In these examples, the ECAP1INT ISR (or CAPINT1 ISR for F2812 F2812) is performed directly in the DefaultIsr_BIOS.c file (as an example of reducing latency), whereas the ADC interrupt function in DefaultIsr_BIOS.c posts a SWI to perform the ADC routine. These are just examples. Note that the ECAP1INT (and CAPINT1) ISRs are using the DSP/BIOS dispatcher to perform context save/restore (as selected in the HWI manager of the configuration tool). If absolute minimum latency is required (for some time critical ISR), one could disable the interrupt dispatcher for that interrupt, and add the "interrupt" keyword to the ISR function declaration. Note that doing so will preclude the user for utilizing any DSP/BIOS functionality in that ISR.
