SPI Bootloader for Hercules TMS570LS12X MCU
Texas InstrumentsThis application report describes how to communicate with the Hercules™ serial peripheral interface (SPI) bootloader. The SPI bootloader is a small piece of code that can be programmed at the beginning of Flash to act as an application loader as well as an update mechanism for applications running on a Hercules Cortex™-R4 based TMS570LS12x microcontroller.
Interfacing an LCD Controller to a DM642 Video Port (Rev. B)
Texas InstrumentsThere is an increasing demand to bring video and image processing capabilities to devices like video IP phones cellular phones and personal data assistants (PDAs). The images are brought to the user on liquid crystal displays that usually use thin film transistor (TFT) technology. These LCD devices require very specific timings and row/column formatting that can make them difficult to directly i
