Introduction

This example shows a simple application, which setups the CPU and the underlying RTOS or no-RTOS environment on the supported SOC.

The example does the below

• Setup a timer with system tick of 1ms, setup MPU and cache (if available)
• Create a RTOS task (in RTOS example)
• Trigger a ISR and signal a semaphore from ISR to main task
• Show usage of clock delay
• Show usage of cache APIs
• Show usage of heap APIs

Supported Combinations

Attention

A53 NORTOS, A53 FREERTOS and A53 FREERTOS SMP support is experimental and is NOT supported by TI.

Parameter	Value
CPU + OS	r5fss0-0 nortos
	r5fss0-0 freertos
	m4fss0-0 nortos
	m4fss0-0 freertos
	a53ss0-0 nortos
	a53ss0-0 freertos
	a53ss0-0 freertos-smp
Toolchain	ti-arm-clang
	arm.gnu.aarch64-none
Board	am64x-evm, am64x-sk
Example folder	examples/kernel/dpl/dpl_demo/

Steps to Run the Example

• When using CCS projects to build, import the CCS project for the required combination and build it using the CCS project menu (see Using SDK with CCS Projects).
• When using makefiles to build, note the required combination and build using make command (see Using SDK with Makefiles)
• Launch a CCS debug session and run the executable, see CCS Launch, Load and Run
