Hello
I need to bring up a board (currently it is TOWER board, but next it will be our propitery board) in a very short time
(10-14 days)
Is it a good idea to "define" everything in the PE and generate code (one time for the TOWER and in the second time for the final board) and use it as my BSP ?
(The BSP should include processor init, PLL, timers, UART, Ethernet, I2C, SPI, GPIO, interrupts, ...)
BTW: the compiler and IDE is IAR.
Thanks a lot

Hello,
the compiler/IDE should not matter (an article how to use IAR with Processor Expert is here Tutorial: IAR + FreeRTOS + Freedom Board | MCU on Eclipse).
To answer your question: I'm pretty much doing it the way you describe all the time: I create my BSP/project with Processor Expert using an eval board (FRDM or Tower board for example), and then use it on my final hardware. In case there are differences, I manage this with Processor Expert configurations: see Configurations with Processor Expert | MCU on Eclipse
I hope this helps.

OOPS.
I have a question regarding configurations:
One board I work on is TOWER
Second board called Evb
In both, I want to have option to compile/link to flash or to RAM.
I need 4 configurations like this:
TOWER
| - flash
+- RAM
Evb
| - flash
+- RAM
But what I have is only
Flash
RAM
TOWER (I added it)
Evb (I added it)
What can be done ?
How do I "duplicate" TOWER flash and TOWER RAM (which is the same components but different address) instead of edit PE 4 times ?
Thanks a lot
