But the description did say full use of CCS, testing GCC is not the same as testing TI's compilers... Oh well...

Christian DeFeo,
I Guess I Got a Wrong Launchpad ?? The RoadTEST Page mentions TMS320F28027F i.e. The InstaSPIN-FOC enabled C2000 Piccolo LaunchPad ,
but I have received the C2000 without the InstaSPIN-FOC. To be more particular, The LP has TMS320F28027PTT instead of TMS320F28027FPTT ??

I am not sure about the Booster pack as I haven't looked into that yet Hopefully that's correct !

Regards,
GurI

Finally I got the Kit. @ Kas I guess we don't as With Ti's CCS 6 , Ti has added support for GNU ARM Toolchain and MSP GCC Toolchain, not for C2000 !!

Christian DeFeo ,

I'm sure I am missing something, but how do we get an unrestricted version of CCS? There does not appear to be any information in the package.

Thanks
Kas

I got my Road Test yesterday and I must say I was underwhelmed by the packaging. I do not like when the packaging is oversized as it gets tough having to store a box that it 10 times the size of whats inside. As for the boards themselves I have not had a chance to get to them yet but it looks impressive and cleanly done in usual AWESOME TI style, definitely looking forward to digging into this one.

Thanks again to E14 for this opportunity

Just to inform all RoadTesters: due to heavy shipping volumes, we are continuing to experience delays in RoadTest shipments. Thank you for your patience.
