1.2Getting 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 SPRAAM0).

•C2000 Getting Started Website (http://www.ti.com/c2000getstarted)

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 SPRAA85)

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.

•Flash Tools: C28x Flash Tools

• TMS320F281x™ Flash Programming Solutions (literature number SPRB169)

•Running an Application from Internal Flash Memory on the TMS320F28xxx DSP (literature number SPRA958)

Step 4. Move on to more advanced topics
