From 16a384cfb161f6a3dbcd69fc3b788b6dbc229669 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Joel Sherrill Date: Fri, 23 Apr 1999 16:35:11 +0000 Subject: New BSP from Tony R. Ambardar from the University of British Columbia. The BSP is for: Yes, this is the "entry model" of a series of boards from Technologic Systems. Costs <$200 I believe. They have a WWW page at www.t-systems.com. I am letting them know about the availability of this BSP too. --- c/src/lib/libbsp/i386/ts_386ex/README | 43 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 43 insertions(+) create mode 100644 c/src/lib/libbsp/i386/ts_386ex/README (limited to 'c/src/lib/libbsp/i386/ts_386ex/README') diff --git a/c/src/lib/libbsp/i386/ts_386ex/README b/c/src/lib/libbsp/i386/ts_386ex/README new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..b164be92d0 --- /dev/null +++ b/c/src/lib/libbsp/i386/ts_386ex/README @@ -0,0 +1,43 @@ +# +# $Id$ +# + +This BSP is for the Technologic Systems TS-1325, an i386EX PC/AT +compatible SBC equipped with 2 standard serial ports and a parallel +port suitable for general digital I/O. It comes with 2MB RAM and 1MB +Flash ROM. Additional information is available at the TS web site: +http://www.t-systems.com. + +The BSP uses software floating-point emulation, so one must build the +cross-compilation tools with this support. The BSP also supports the +on-board RTC, and an NE2000 compatible network card. It has been used +successfully with C (gcc-2.8.1) and Ada95 (gnat-3.11p), including +networking applications in both languages. + +The TS-1325 runs a version of DOS, and should be configured with a RAM +disk and Zmodem software (see WWW site). RTEMS executables are loaded +and run in DOS conventional memory, giving a 600K file-size limit. The +1MB extended memory is used for the RTEMS workspace, heap, stack and +BSS. Console output is to COM2 @ 115200 baud, 8-N-1. The high baud +rate is needed to speed up serial-line Zmodem file transfers. The +TS-1325 DOS console I/O is by default 9600 baud, and should be changed +to 115200 baud (see WWW site). + +A typical development cycle involves these steps: + +1. Cross-compile the application, yielding a COFF executable. Convert this + to raw binary format, using objcopy or the coff2bin script (see the + tools subdirectory in the BSP). + +2. Use Zmodem to download the raw exec to the TS-1325's ram-disk + (faster than the A: flash disk). A terminal program supporting + Zmodem is needed on the host e.g. minicom under Linux. + +3. Use the DOS-based RTEMS loader "loader.com" (see tools + subdirectory) to load and run the executable. + +Additional documentation and support software is in the tools BSP subdirectory. + +Happy Coding! + +Tony Ambardar, 4/21/99 -- cgit v1.2.3
