Where can I get a free assembler for the TI TMS320C3x/4x?
Ted Rossin has written an assembler and linker for the TMS320C30. In his words, “It is somewhat limited by the fact that it can’t handle expressions but it has worked fine for me over the past few years. There is no manual because it is a clone of the TI assembler and linker. However the linker command files use a different (easier to use) syntax. It runs on HP-UX workstations, Macs, IBM clones and believe it or not the Atari-ST (because I developed the code on it).” [Ted Rossin, rossin@fc.hp.com] Dr. Michael P. Hayes has written a GNU-based assembler for the TMS320C30 and TMS320C40 families, available at http://www.elec.canterbury.ac.nz/c4x. The current version patches against binutils-2.7. According to Michael Hayes, the assembler syntax is compatible with the Texas Instruments TMS320C30 assembler, although not all the Texas Instruments directives are supported. The binutils include a linker (ld), archiver (ar), disassembler (objdump), and other miscellaneous utilities. The object fo
