TMS320F280x SDFlash Programming Utilities
F280x SDFlash Algo V1.1
Texas Instruments Inc. 8
For SDFlash to erase or program the flash on a device, it must have
the following information:
Location of the SDflash algorithm file
Location of the flash data file – that is the data (.out file)
to program into the device.
Any user defined options.
Which JTAG driver to use
Information about the JTAG scan chain
All of this information is stored in an SDFlash project file (.sdp) that
can be edited though the SDFlash GUI interface. A sample
SDFlash project for each F280x device has been provided in this
download.
Section 6 of this document will guide you through the SDFlash setup and show you how to use the provided sample
SDFlash projects to create your own project and flash the F280x device.
For example F280x code that executes from the flash, refer to the following available from the TI website:
C280x C/C++ Header Files and Peripheral Examples V1.00 (SPRC191)
Running an Application from Internal Memory on the TMS320F281x DSP (SPRA958) This
application note is written for the 281x family of DSPs but can be applied to the 280x family as
well.
6. Quick Start Guide
The following is a step-by-step guide for using the SDFlash utility to program your F280x device.
This quick start guide will refer to the following default directory locations:
<CCS>
default Code Composer Studio install directory: "c:\ti"
<SDFlash>
default SDFlash directory <CCS>\specdig\SDFlash
These directories may be different for your particular installation.

Make sure the target and emulator are setup properly:
•
If you are using the F2808 onboard eZdsp USB emulator, run the F2808 EzDSP Diagnostics utility.
This diagnostic is included as part of the F2808 eZdsp installation.
•
If you are using an XDS510/X/SPI515 emulation controller, use the SDConfig utility. The
F2808 on-board USB emulator is not supported by SDConfig. SDConfig is part of the default
emulation installation and will be installed in your
<CCS>\specdig\sdconfig
directory
