Getting Started

To get started, see GETTING STARTED page.

Note: To build examples from Industrial Communications SDK and MCU+ SDK using CCS projects, user has to add ${SDK_INSTALL_PATH}/ind_comms_sdk path and ${SDK_INSTALL_PATH}/mcu_plus_sdk path to "Product discovery path" respectively in CCS (from Window->Preferences->Code Composer Studio->Products)

Block Diagram

Given below is a block diagram of the SW modules in this SDK

Software Block Diagram

The main software components in the block diagram specific to motor control are described below

Software Components	Documentation Page	Description

Software Frequency Response Analyzer	Software Frequency Response Analyzer	Library that enables developers to quickly measure the frequency response of their digital power converter.
Transforms	Transformation Algorithm	Transformation including Clarke, Park, Space Vector Generation used in motor control applications.
Examples and Demos
Examples and Demos	Examples and Demos	Examples and demos showing usage of different SW libraries and APIs for motor control

For details on software components of Industrial Communications SDK and MCU+ SDK, please refer to AM263X Industrial Communications SDK and AM263X MCU+ SDK respectively.

Directory Structure

Given below is a overview of the directory structure to help you navigate the SDK and related tools.

Folder/Files	Description
${SDK_INSTALL_PATH}/
README_FIRST_AM263X.html	Open this file in a web browser to reach this user guide
makefile	Top level makefile to build the whole SDK using "make"
imports.mak	Top level makefile to list paths to dependent tools
docs/	Offline browseable HTML documentation
examples/	Example applications for AM263X, across multiple boards
source/	Device drivers, middleware libraries and APIs
ind_comms_sdk/	Industrial Communications SDK
mcu_plus_sdk/	MCU+ SDK

Given below are the paths where the different tools needed outside the SDK, like CCS, SysConfig are installed by default in Windows. In Linux, the tools are installed by default in ${HOME}/ti.

Folder/Files	Description
C:/ti/ccs1270	Code composer studio
C:/ti/sysconfig_1.20.0	SysConfig. NOTE, SysConfig is also installed as part of CCS at ${CCS_INSTALL_PATH}/ccs/utils/sysconfig_x.x.x
C:/ti/ti-cgt-armllvm_3.2.2.LTS	TI ARM CLANG compiler tool chain
