Supports Windows 95, 98, 98SE, NT, as well as Sun Solaris 2.6, 2.7 and 8. General release that dropped support for C2x, C3x, C4x and C5x DSPs.

Please help update this article to reflect recent events or newly available information. Support varied through the years, initially Windows 95, NT4 and 98, with the latest release supporting 2000 and XP. The version for C3x/C4x is still sold by Texas Instruments' partner Spectrum Digital. Supported all TMS320 DSPs at that time: C2x, C24x, C3x, C4x, C5x, C54x and C6x. Starting in 2015, a Cloud computing version of CCS was introduced and is part of the suite TI Cloud Tools, which also hosts Resource Explorer and Pinmux. This expertise was used to completely overhaul the previous CCS and starting with release 4.0 all versions are also based on Eclipse.Ĭode Composer was originally developed for DSP development, therefore one of its main differentiators at the time was the availability of graphical visualization tools (XY graphs, FFT magnitude and phase, constellation, raw image visualization) and support for visualizing memory in several numeric formats (decimal, floating-point).

This IDE was named Code Composer Essentials (CCE) and was designed for the MSP430 line of microcontrollers. After the acquisition, Code Composer was bundled with a real-time kernel named DSP/BIOS and its name was appended with the word Studio.ĬCS releases up until 3.3 were based on a proprietary interface, but TI was already working in parallel on the development of an IDE based on the open-source Eclipse. Originally Code Composer was a product from a company called GO DSP located in Toronto, Canada, and it was acquired by TI in 1997. Currently, the successor to these tools, the TI-RTOS embedded tools ecosystem, is available for downloading as a free plugin to Code Composer Studio. However, the latest releases are based on unmodified versions of the Eclipse open source IDE, which can be easily extended to include support for OS level application debug ( Linux, Android, Windows Embedded) and open source compiler suites such as GCC.Įarly versions included a real time kernel called DSP/BIOS and its later inception SYS/BIOS.
Ĭode Composer Studio is primarily designed as for embedded project design and low-level (baremetal) JTAG based debugging.
It also enables debugging on several subsystems such as Ducati, IVA Accelerator and PRU-ICSS. Texas Instruments embedded processors include TMS320 DSPs, OMAP system-on-a-chip, DaVinci system-on-a-chip, Sitara applications processors, Hercules microcontrollers, Simplelink MCUs ( MSP432 and Wireless connectivity microcontrollers), MSP430 and Tiva/Stellaris microcontrollers. Code Composer Studio (CCStudio or CCS) is an integrated development environment (IDE) to develop applications for Texas Instruments (TI) embedded processors.
