The F28379D (and F2838x) series offer a dual CPU system that is not quite a dual-core system.
More a dual-MCU system.

Limitations are the following:

  • Each CPU/MCU has its own non-shared flash & internal memories (Mx Dx & LSx RAMs)
  • The shared memory (GSx RAM) has no arbitration, each cpu needs to take ownership of a section to be able to write or fetch
  • And God knows what else

With these limitations in mind, is it possible to run a software on both MCUs at the same time and make it act like it's a dual-core system ? At what cost ?
