2.3.3 HWBIST Memory Requirements

Three ranges of memory are reserved for HWBIST operation, as follows:

  • 32 words starting at CPU address 0x0000. This is the entry point that the boot ROM jumps to after a HWBIST reset and is used by the hwbist memory section. It cannot be moved to another address.
  • hwbiststack section used for a full context save and restore. It must reside within a SP addressable region. The size of the save/restore is different across device families. At most, like on F2838x, which needs to accommodate the FPU64 registers, 82 words are required.
  • Many of the HWBIST functions are placed in .TI.ramfunc for best performance. Size may vary slightly depending on device family and compiler version and options. You can remove the CODE_SECTION #pragmas from the HWBIST library files and rebuild the library if you prefer to have them execute from Flash.
