The SMT6012 provides the drivers required to use Code Composer (CC) and Code
Composer Studio (CCS) with the following Sundance Multiprocessor Technology
range of carrier boards:
Texas Instruments software, if purchased through Sundance, will include the
SMT6012.
Sundance carrier board Description
SMT300 Single TIM cPCI carrier board
SMT300Q 4 TIM cPCI carrier board
SMT310 Single TIM PCI carrier board
SMT310Q 4 TIM PCI carrier board
SMT320 (Obsolete) 4 TIM PCI carrier board
SMT327 (Obsolete) 4 TIM cPCI carrier board
Table 1 - Sundance hardware supported by the SMT6012
The SMT300, SMT300Q, SMT310 and SMT310Q carrier boards all use the driver for
the SMT310. Similarly, the SMT320 and SMT327 both use the driver for the
SMT320. For the remainder of this document, SMT310 will refer to the SMT300,
SMT300Q, SMT310 and the SMT310Q. The SMT320 will refer to the SMT320 and
the SMT327.
If you are using a SMT320, check to make sure which version of the SMT320 you are
using. The version number of a SMT320 is written on the PCB, near the blue handle
and next to the serial number (ADC4-xxxx).
This document describes how to select a CC or CCS driver based on:
You need to have at least the following version of CC or CCS installed.
Processor type CC or CCS version required
C4x CC version 4.3
C6x CCS version 1.0 or higher (The FULL VERSION, not the
limited version supplied with an evaluation board).
3 System requirements
3.1 Software
• The PC Operating System must be Windows 9x / NT 4.0 / Windows 2000 or
above.
• On a Windows NT / Windows 2000/ XP system, you must be logged in as a
user with administrative rights.
3.2 Hardware
• The PC must supply3.3V on the PCI bus. If you are not sure, please check
the voltage between a mounting hole of your carrier card And a Ground from
a PC power cable. Only a few C4x TIMs do not require 3.3V.
• Ensure that the bolt makes contact with the metal ring of the mounting hole.
See the user manual of your carrier board for the details.
The Sundance carrier board includes a JTAG controller chip. This chip enables the
various processor elements on the carrier board to communicate information
between each other.
CC and CCS uses the JTAG chain to debug processors. The JTAG chain
interconnects hardware elements as shown in Figure 1 - JTAG Chain.

Figure 1 - JTAG Chain
On-board and off-board debugging refers to the way the JTAG chain is used.
For on-board debugging the JTAG chain is local to the carrier board. The JTAG
controller selects the input from the “TDI On-board” pin. This effectively disables
the external JTAG chain.
For Off-board debugging, the JTAG controller chip selects its input from the
external connector. This implies that the JTAG chain now includes the external
JTAG chain. This configuration is useful when you want to debug external
hardware using the carrier board as a master.
If you are connecting the carrier board to other carrier boards located in the same
system, you can use the on-board JTAG connector to make their JTAG paths part
of the JTAG chain of the master carrier board.
Please refer to the user manual of the carrier board that you are using for the
details on how to connect the carrier board with an external JTAG chain.
CCS detects the carrier board with the highest I/O address first. On each of the
carrier boards, the processor in TIM site 1 is detected first and then the processor
on TIM site 2 etc.
