Why must the DSP simulator be connected to the target system (Target)? [Copy link]

The simulator is different from the MCU. There is no DSP in the simulator. It provides the IEEE standard JTAG port to simulate and debug the DSP. Therefore, the simulator must have a simulation object and a target system. The target system is your product, which must have a DSP. The simulator provides JTAG to connect with the DSP of the target system, and debug the entire target system through the DSP.

Basic requirements for DSP to work properly in simulation:
1) DSP power and ground connections are correct.
2) DSP clock is correct.
3) DSP's main control signals, such as RS and HOLD signals, are connected to high level.
4) C2000's watchdog is turned off.
5) Non-maskable interrupt NMI is pulled up.
When CCS or Emurst is running, it prompts "Can't Initialize Target DSP"
1) Is the emulator connection normal?
2) Is the emulator's I/O setting correct?
3) Is the power supply of the XDSPP emulator correct?
4) Is the target system correct?
5) Is the emulator normal?
6) Are the basic conditions for DSP operation met?
It is recommended to use a target board for testing
