Code Composer Installation¶
Objective¶
Install Code Composer Studio for the development of ARM Cortex A53 MPU applications.
Summary of Steps¶
This is the summary of the steps involved.
- Install the Processor Software development kit (SDK) for the AM62x.
- Install the M4F/MCU Development which includes the base installation of Code Composer Studio.
- Point Code Composer Studio to the cross-compiler for ARM Linux applications
Steps¶
Install the Processor Software Development kit (SDK) for the AM62x.¶
Follow the steps described in https://software-dl.ti.com/processor-sdk-linux/esd/AM62X/08_06_00_42/exports/docs/devices/AM62X/linux/Overview/Download_and_Install_the_SDK.html to install the Processor SDK.
Install the M4F/MCU Development which includes the base installation of Code Composer Studio.¶
Follow the steps as described in M4FMCU_Development
Point Code Composer Studio to the cross-compiler for ARM Cortex A52 Linux applications¶
- Start Code Composer Studio. Any workspace will do. The settings changed here will be remembered for all workspaces used.
- Windows->Preferences->Code Composer Studio->Build->Compilers
- Press the Add... button next to the Tool discovery path list
- Browse to the directory containing the Arm cross-compiler in the SDK. <sdk_include_path> will be something like $HOME/ti-processor-sdk-linux-am62xx-evm-08.06.00.42
<sdk_include_path>/linux-devkit/sysroots/x86_64-arago-linux/usr/bin
- Press Open
- In the Discovered tools list, there should be a new Arm entry for GNU v9.2.1 (null aarch64)
- Press Apply and Close
Conclusion¶
Code Composer has been installed and is now ready for building and debugging examples for the ARM Linux environment.
