Hardware Implementation Pane Overview

Configuration Parameters

  1. In the Simulink® Editor, select Simulation > Model Configuration Parameters.

  2. In the Configuration Parameter dialog box, click Hardware Implementation.

  3. Set the Hardware board parameter to a value such as TI Concerto F28M36x (ARM Cortex-M3).

  4. The parameter values under Hardware board settings are automatically populated to their default values.

    You can optionally adjust these parameters for your particular use case.

  5. Click Apply to apply the changes.

For more information on selecting a hardware blockset and general configuration settings, see Hardware Implementation Pane.

ParameterDescriptionDefault Value
Build actionThe option to specify how the build process should take place during code generation.Build, load and run
Device name

The option to select a particular device from the selected processor family in the Target hardware parameter on the Code Generation pane.

F28M36P63C
Disable parallel build

Select to compile the generated code and driver source codes in parallel order for faster build and deployment speed.

off
Boot From Flash (stand alone execution)

The option to specify if the application has to load to the flash. If you do not select this option, the application loads to the RAM.

Selected
Use custom linker command file

The option to indicate that the custom linker command file must be used during the build action. Select this option, if you have your own custom linker file, which you can specify in Linker command file parameter. If you do not select this option, based on the device you have selected, a default custom linker command file will be used.

Selected
Linker command file

The path to memory description file that is required during linking. For each family of TI processor selected under ‘Target Hardware’, one linker command file will be selected automatically.

$(TARGET_ROOT)\src\c28M35H52C.cmd
CCS hardware configuration file

The Code Composer Studio™ file required for downloading the application on the hardware. Select one of the .ccxml files from the folder ‘CCS_Config’ folder under blockset installation folder.

Specify the frequency of the crystal oscillator used in the board.

20
Auto set PLL based on OSCCLK and CPU clock

The option that helps you to set the PLL control register value automatically.

Selected
System PLL multiplier (SYSPLLMULT)[1–127.75]

Specify the system PLL multiplier. You can specify a value in this parameter if Auto set PLL based on OSCCLK and CPU clock is not selected.

15
System clock divider (SYSDIVSEL)

If you select the Auto set PLL based on OSCCLK and CPU clock check box, the auto calculated clock divider value achieves the specified CPU Clock value based on the Oscillator clock frequency. Otherwise, you can select a value for Clock divider (SYSDIVSEL).

1
Achievable C28x SYSCLK in MHz = (OSCCLK * SYSPLLMULT/ 2/ SYSDIVSEL)

The auto calculated feedback value that matches most closely to the desired CPU Clock value on the board, based on the values of OSCCLK, SYSPLLMULT, and the SYSDIVSEL.

150
M3 System clock divider (M3SSDIVSEL)

Select a value from the options for M3 system clock divider.

2
M3 SYSCLK in MHz = (OSCCLK * SYSPLLMULT/ 2/ SYSDIVSEL/ M3SSDIVSEL)

This is the achievable M3 system clock frequency.

The value in this parameter is calculated based on the desired baud rate that you specify and the system clock frequency.

115207
Number of stop bits

Select the number of stop bits used to indicate the end of a byte data transmission. The options available:

1
Parity mode

Select a parity mode that is added at the end of a binary data for error detection.

None
Pin assignment(Tx)

Select a GPIO pin as the UART pin for data transmission. By default, the GPIO29 is hardwired as the Tx GPIO to the FTDI chip.

PE5_GPIO29
Pin assignment(Rx)

Select a GPIO pin as UART pin for data reception.
