TMS320C40 EMULATOR TIPS

This document discusses special precautions that need to be taken when working with the TMS320C40 emulator. There are several potential problem situations:

· The debugger will break any pending CPU/DMA access that is not completed within the time-out period.

· Comm port logic stops when the emulator is halting the device (in a breakpoint or between single steps). (However, you can still work with the comm ports under emulator single-stepping.)

· Interrupts are disabled during assembly single-stepping.

Situations where these events could occur are discussed in detail, as well as techniques to avoid problems.
