How to Use the BSP for the Texas Instruments SDP2420 Development Board (Windows Embedded CE 6.0)

1/5/2010

You can use the sample board support package (BSP) provided by Microsoft to quickly evaluate Windows Embedded CE 6.0 features on the Texas Instruments SDP2420 Development Board.

For more information about the sample BSPs included in Windows Embedded CE for ARM microprocessors, see ARM BSPs.

Hardware and Software Assumptions

  • You have installed Platform Builder for Windows Embedded CE 6.0. The latest Platform Builder tools are hosted in the Visual Studio 2005 shell.
  • You included support for ARMV4I microprocessors when you installed Platform Builder.
    If you did not, reinstall Platform Builder and include support for ARMV4I.
  • You are downloading a Windows Embedded CE-based debug or release run-time image to a Texas Instruments SDP2420 Development Board.
  • You have downloaded and installed the OMAP Software Tools from the TI Web site.

To use the BSP for the Texas Instruments SDP2420 Development Board, follow the steps in the table below.
