2 Hardware
This section contains the hardware specifications for the BH560v2 pod, including external
attachments and indicators.
2.1 Important Environmental Considerations
This equipment is designed to be operated under the following environmental conditions:
Temperature between 0°C –55°C. Relative Humidity of 20% - 70% non-condensing.
Operation of the unit outside of the above range may affect structural and mechanical integrity
and cause permanent damage.
Caution is necessary to minimize ESD (Electro-static Discharge) which can damage electronic
components. Use in a controlled environment where ESD materials and practices are employed
is highly recommended
2.1.1 Other Hardware Requirments
Target Board System - a self- powered board with a TI DSP and compatible JTAG header
connection conforming to IEEE 1149.1 Standard.
Copy of Code Composer Studio Version 4.2 or later

2.2.1 LED Indicators
The BH560v2 has eight (8) status and activity LEDs that can provide information during power
up, operation, and configuration. These LEDs are described below in Table 2. You can see the
LEDs and their respective labels in Figure 3.

2.3 LED Modes of Operation
The BH560v2 is running an embedded version of the Linux operating system. Because the
BH560v2 is running an operating system, it maintains some of the OS characteristics, such as
boot modes. Similar to Microsoft Windows®, Linux has normal and safe boot modes. Safe
mode exists to prevent the device from being put into a state where it can’t boot or be restored to
a normal mode of operation.
Depending on certain events the BH560v2 may boot into safe mode. For example, if the device
does not complete a boot cycle into normal operating mode after ~5 tries, safe mode is activated.
This scenario is common if you power cycle the device too many times and don’t allow it to
complete the boot cycle. The following paragraphs describe how you can identify these
operating modes.
•Normal Operating Mode
Normal operating mode can be identified when the device completed its boot sequence,
which could take between 20 and 30 seconds, and both LEDs are on steady Green. See
Figure 4 for location and orientation of these LEDs on the BH560v2 end panel.
Figure 4 - Normal Operating Mode LED States3
•Safe Mode
Safe mode can be identified when the device is powered and the MODE LED is on blinking
Red. See Figure 5 for location and orientation of these LEDs on the BH560v2 end panel.
To clear safe mode, please refer to the section on the Bh560v2Config utility.
Figure 5 - BH560v2 End Panel LEDs (safe mode)3
3The USB cable must be connected to PC and BH560v2 for power, but has been omitted for better clarity.

2.3.1.1 USB Connector
The BH560v2 emulator has a USB mini-A/B connector (see Figure 2)
The connector serves two purposes.
Host interface used for communications
Power for the BH560v2 pod
The USB connector can be utilize for both purposes at the same time. In other words, you can
power the BH560v2 using the USB connector and also use it at the same time for debug. For
more information on powering the BH560v2 via the Universal Serial Bus, please refer to section
2.7, Power Options.
2.3.1.2 JTAG Cable Connector
The JTAG cable connector is show in Figure 2 and Figure 6. It comes pre-connected to the
emulator pod
WARNING:
The BH560v2 does not require an additional buffer board and cannot be used with a
buffer board; only use MIPI60 pin converters.
2.4 Target Interface Cable
In the BH560v2 System Trace Emulator kit, you will find that the Coax JTAG cable is pre-
connected to the emulator pod and uses a standard MIPI60 connector.

2.4.1.1 Target Signal Buffer Board
The BH560v2 kit does not contain an active buffer board. Do not use the BH560v2 with a buffer
board. Only use MIPI60 pin converters.

2.5 Pin Converters
The BH560v2 is kitted with three pin converters.
MIPI 60 to TI 14 Converter
MIPI 60 to TI 20 (cTI) Converter
MIPI 60 to 20-pin ARM Converter
NOTE:
If you have a TI 60-pin Trace header on your board, a MIPI60_TI60 Pin converter is
available separately.
2.5.1 MIPI 60 to TI 14 Pin Converter
This pin converter 60e_MIPI-14t_TI allows a BH560v2 emulator with standard MIPI 60-pin
JTAG connection to connect to the old 14-pin emulation header on a target board.

Figure 9 - MIPI 60 to TI 14 Pin Converter (bottom/target view)
2.5.2 MIPI 60 to compact TI 20 Pin Converter
This pin converter 60e_MIPI-20t_cTI allows a BH560v2 emulator with standard MIPI 60-pin
JTAG connection to connect to the new compact TI 20-pin emulation header. An example of this
new, 20-pin header can be found on the TI DM6446 EVM.

JTAG connection to connect to the ARM 20-pin emulation header. An example of this ARM 20-
pin header can be found on the TI OMAP-L138 Experimenter board.

2.6 USB Cable
The BH560v2 ships with a USB cable that has a USB-A male connection and a USB 5-pin mini-B
male connection (see Figure 14). The USB-A connector is used to supply power and data from
the computer’s USB port to the BH560v2.
In addition, the cable supports USB 1.0, USB 1.1, USB 2.0 specifications.
Figure 14 - USB Y Cable
2.7 Power Options
The BH560v2 has one power option - power supplied via USB port.
2.7.1.1 USB
The BH560v2 pod contains a USB mini-B connector. This connector can be used for both data
and power using the supplied USB cable (see Figure 16).

3 Installation
3.1 Requirements
The BH560v2 is only supported by Code Composer Studio v4.2 and later. You must have this
version (or later) of software installed in order to use the BH560v2. It is not compatible with
earlier versions, such as v3.3.
NOTE:
Drivers for the BH560v2 are bundled with the CCStudio software distribution
(download or DVD) from Texas Instruments. You don’t need to install a separate
installer. CCStudio should be installed first, and before attaching or using the
BH560v2.
Software updates are provided by Blackhawk and distributed via the Eclipse Update Manager.
The eclipse update manager is part of CCS v4.2 and later (CCS v4 is based on the eclipse IDE).
The update manager will automatically check for updates for Blackhawk emulation drivers as well
as all other features installed with CCStudio.
The following are general hardware guidelines for a computer that will support using the
BH560v2 emulator. It is recommended that you refer to the system requirements and
recommendations specified by Code Composer Studio for more details.
•1.2 GHz or faster Pentium or compatible
•10 GB of free hard disk space
•2 GB of RAM
•SVGA (1024x768) color display
•Local DVD-ROM drive
•Microsoft Windows XP/Vista/7 (32 or 64-bit editions)
•Available USB port
NOTE
Before attaching the BH560v2 hardware to your computer, install CCStudio v4.2 (or
later) FIRST!

USB560v2-IG-01
3.2 Software
The following section describes the Code Composer Studio software installation process. Please
refer to the Code Composer Studio documentation for more details. If Code Composer Studio is
already installed on your system, you can skip this section.

3.3 Hardware
The following section describes the BH560v2 hardware installation process.
CAUTION:
Be very careful with the target cable connectors. Connect them with care; don’t force
them into position or damage may result.
WARNING:
Do not connect or disconnect the emulator cable while the target system is powered.
Installing the BH560v2 hardware requires these two steps.
•Configuring the emulator cable assembly with pin converters (if necessary)
•Installing the host PC connection (USB)
3.3.1 Configuring the Emulator Cable Assembly
The BH560v2 cable assembly requires no changes for use with MIPI60 target connections. For
other target connections, such as TI 14-pin JTAG, use the supplied pin converters (see Figure 25
and refer to section 2.5).
After you determine the correct pin converter necessary for your target board, or not needed, the
cable assembly can be put together following these easy steps.
Attach the pin converter to the JTAG cable by pressing the connectors together with the correct
orientation making sure you don’t force them. The result is shown in Figure 25.
JTAG Cable
Pin Converter
Figure 25 - JTAG Cable + Pin Converter
3.3.2 USB Cable Assembly
Attach the USB cable “A” connector to an available USB port on the PC or USB hub. Then
attach the mini-B connector to the emulator’s mini-B port (see Figure 3).
Once both connections are made, the emulator will power-on.

4 JTAG Signal Definitions
The BH560v2 is compatible with all TI DSP devices with a JTAG interface and supported by
Code Composer Studio v4.2 and later. Pin converters are supplied with the unit so that you can
attach to target boards with various JTAG connections. These connections and their signal
definitions are described in Appendix A.
