Wireless Solar Management System Terms and Acronyms

NCP
Network co-processor

The TI Wi-SUN FAN network processor mode uses one host and one network co-processor with a UART interface.

Root

In a WSMS network, the base is the root of the network tree.

General Terms and Acronyms

CCFG
Customer Configuration
Customer Configuration Area

Customer Configuration is set by the application and contains configuration parameters for the ROM boot code, device hardware, and device firmware. It contains lock-bits on the last page of flash. You can read more in the Customer Configuration section in the CC13x2 CC26x2 SimpleLink Wireless MCU Technical Reference Manual.

CCS
Code Composer Studio

An integrated development environment to develop applications for Texas Instruments embedded processors. Download: Code Composer Studio

cJTAG
compact JTAG

Class 4 IEEE 1149.7: Standard for Reduced-pin and Enhanced-functionality Test Access Port and Boundary-scan Architecture. This is known by acronym cJTAG.

GCC
GNU Compiler Collection

A compiler system produced by the GNU Project, which support various programming languages such as C and C++.

GPRAM
General purpose RAM

This memory area is used for the cache per default, but can be configured to be used as RAM.

IAR

Refers to IAR Systems’ IAR Embedded Workbench, which is an integrated development environment used for building and debugging embedded applications.

JTAG
Joint Test Action Group

IEEE standard 1149.1: Standard Test Access Port and Boundary Scan Architecture Test Access Port (TAP). This standard is known by the acronym JTAG.

MCU
Microcontroller Unit

A small computer on a single integrated circuit.

NVS
Non-Volatile Storage

Storage of data in non-volatile memory (NVM). NVM retains saved data during power cycles. In the context of CC13xx and CC26xx devices, NVM either refers to the internal flash or some external flash.

ROM
Read-only Memory

Type of non-volatile memory used in computers. Once data is written to ROM, the data cannot be removed and can only be read.

RTSC
Real Time Software Components

A toolset for creating reusable code, used by TI-RTOS. See RTSC and RTSC-Pedia.

SysConfig
System Configuration Tool

SysConfig is a graphical interface for configuring software projects. Configuration files, C source files and header files are generated based on the parameters configured in the SysConfig dashboard. See sysconfig-sysconfig.

TI-CLANG
TI Arm Clang Compiler Toolchain

The TI Arm Clang Compiler Toolchain (tiarmclang) is the next generation TI Arm compiler, replacing the previous TI Arm Compiler Tools (armcl). You can use the tiarmclang compiler toolchain to build applications from C, C++, and/or assembly source files to be loaded and run on one of the Cortex-M or Cortex-R Arm processors that are supported by the toolchain. You can find more information here.

VIMS
Versatile Instruction Memory System

A system control module that handles access to the device memory areas from the CPU and system bus. You can read more in the CC13x2 CC26x2 SimpleLink Wireless MCU Technical Reference Manual.

.bss

Block started by symbol. This memory section usually contains uninitialized variables including the task stacks.
