This is a maintenance update for the production BIOS MCSDK R2.0.0 release. This update can be manually downloaded or automatically downloaded directly from CCS using Eclipse Update Manager; see the BIOS MCSDK User's Guide for details on setting up automatic software updates.

The BIOS Multicore Software Development Kit (MCSDK) provides the core foundational building blocks that facilitate application software development on TI's high performance and multicore DSPs. This software release gives developers the ability to evaluate major software capabilities of KeyStone family devices.

The major updates from the last maintenance release, BIOS MCSDK 2.0.5, are:
  • Support for TMS320C6678 PG 2.0 EVM
  • Updated components SYS/BIOS, EDMA3 LLD, CPPI LLD, QMSS LLD, CSL, XDC Tools, NDK, IPC, MATHLIB, IMGLIB
  • Bug fixes (see the Release Notes for full list)

The foundational components include:
  • SYS/BIOS which is a light-weight real-time embedded operating system for TI devices
  • Chip support libraries, drivers, and basic platform utilities
  • Interprocessor communication for communication across cores and devices
  • Basic networking stack and protocols
  • Optimized application-specific and application non-specific algorithm libraries
  • Debug and instrumentation
  • Bootloaders and boot utilities
  • Demonstrations and examples

Please see the following wiki pages for more information:

Note: Please install Code Composer Studio before installing BIOS-MCSDK package.
