The Blackhawk USB560 JTAG emulator is the third generation of the most widely used
USB XDS560-class emulator, first introduced by Blackhawk in 2002. The USB560 supports
all of the advanced capabilities of Texas Instruments latest DSPs. These capabilities
include high-speed Real-Time Data Exchange HS-RTDX™, lightning speed downloads
and Advanced Event Triggering to quickly find and fix real-time software problems.
The compact JTAG emulator pod features a variable TCK (timing clock) up to 50 MHz
and supports voltages from 5v down to 0.5v to support TI low-voltage device roadmap.
Software compatible with all versions of Code Composer Studio™ (CCStudio) integrated
development environment (IDE) v2.2 and later. Drivers are provided for Windows®
2000/XP/Vista/7. Additionally, 64-bit drivers are available for XP Pro x64, Vista x64,
and 7 x64. All driver updates are available for download free-of-charge from our
website.
The Blackhawk USB560 JTAG Emulator supports TMS320, TMS470 (ARM®) and OMAP™
families including the DaVinci™ platform. The USB560 JTAG Emulator is also
compatible with the Code Composer Studio Flash-burner utility.
The Blackhawk™ USB560 JTAG Emulator is backward compatible
with USB v1.0/1.1 and can handle very low I/O power supply voltages (0.5 to 5.0
volts) while preserving compatibility with previous XDS510™-class devices.
The XDS560-class technology extends capabilities to the developer by providing dramatically
faster high-speed Real-Time Data Exchange (HS-RTDX)™ bandwidth for real-time visibility,
significantly faster code downloads for better productivity and Advanced Event Triggering
capabilities to quickly find and fix difficult real-time software problems. These
new key features increase productivity for designers and shorten time to market
for new DSP applications.
