3.3 Development Tools
3.3.1 Development Support
In case the customer would like to develop their own features and software on the TCI6630K2L device, TI
offers an extensive line of development tools for the KeyStone II platform, including tools to evaluate the
performance of the processors, generate code, develop algorithm implementations, and fully integrate and
debug software and hardware modules. The tool's support documentation is electronically available within
the Code Composer Studio™ Integrated Development Environment (IDE).
The following products support development of KeyStone devices:
• Software Development Tools:
– Code Composer Studio Integrated Development Environment (IDE), including Editor
C/C++/Assembly Code Generation, and Debug plus additional development tools
– Scalable, Real-Time Foundation Software (DSP/BIOS™), which provides the basic run-time target
software needed to support any DSP application DSP/BIOS™
• Hardware Development Tools:
– Extended Development System (XDS™) Emulator (supports multiprocessor system debug) XDS™
– EVM (Evaluation Module)
3.4 Device Nomenclature
To designate the stages in the product development cycle, TI assigns prefixes to the part numbers of all
devices and support tools. Each family member has one of two prefixes: X or [blank]. These prefixes
represent evolutionary stages of product development from engineering prototypes through fully qualified
production devices/tools.
Device development evolutionary flow:
• X: Experimental device that is not necessarily representative of the final device's electrical
specifications
• [Blank]: Fully qualified production device
Support tool development evolutionary flow:
• X: Development-support product that has not yet completed Texas Instruments internal qualification
testing.
• [Blank]: Fully qualified development-support product
Experimental (X) and fully qualified [Blank] devices and development-support tools are shipped with the
following disclaimer:
Developmental product is intended for internal evaluation purposes.
Fully qualified and production devices and development-support tools have been characterized fully, and
the quality and reliability of the device have been demonstrated fully. TI's standard warranty applies.
Predictions show that experimental devices (X) have a greater failure rate than the standard production
devices. Texas Instruments recommends that these devices not be used in any production system
because their expected end-use failure rate still is undefined. Only qualified production devices are to be
used.
TI device nomenclature also includes a suffix with the device family name. This suffix indicates the
package type (for example, CMS), the temperature range (for example, blank is the default case
temperature range), and the device speed range, in Megahertz (for example, blank is 1000 MHz [1 GHz]).
For device part numbers and further ordering information for TCI6630K2L in the CMS package type, see
the TI website www.ti.com or contact your TI sales representative.
Figure 3-1 provides a legend for reading the complete device name for any C66x+ DSP generation
member.
