Development Support

TI offers an extensive line of development tools, 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 AM335x device applications:

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 AM335x device application. DSP/BIOS

™

Hardware Development Tools: Extended Development System (XDS

™) Emulator XDS™

For a complete listing of development-support tools for the AM335x microprocessor platform, visit the

Texas Instruments website at www.ti.com. For information on pricing and availability, contact the nearest

TI field sales office or authorized distributor.

Device Nomenclature

To designate the stages in the product development cycle, TI assigns prefixes to the part numbers of all

microprocessors (MPUs) and support tools. Each device has one of three prefixes: X, P, or null (no prefix)

(e.g., XAM3358ZCE). Texas Instruments recommends two of three possible prefix designators for its

support tools: TMDX and TMDS. These prefixes represent evolutionary stages of product development

from engineering prototypes (TMDX) through fully qualified production devices/tools (TMDS).

Device development evolutionary flow:

Experimental device that is not necessarily representative of the final device's electrical

specifications and may not use production assembly flow.

Prototype device that is not necessarily the final silicon die and may not necessarily meet

final electrical specifications.

null

Production version of the silicon die that is fully qualified.

Support tool development evolutionary flow:

TMDX

Development-support product that has not yet completed Texas Instruments internal

qualification testing.

TMDS

Fully-qualified development-support product.

X and P devices and TMDX development-support tools are shipped against the following disclaimer:

"Developmental product is intended for internal evaluation purposes."

Production devices and TMDS 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 prototype devices (X or P) 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.
