Hi RATHNA,

Digilent currently doesn't support Code Composer Studio for any of our products.

Thanks,

Arthur

can I program the arm cortex a9 processor alone without FPGA programming? If so what are the DSP functionalities Zybo board's ARM cortex A9 providing?

[RATHNA]

can you please help me with that?

Yes, you can program the PS alone without loading a bitstream, but you still need to export a hardware project from Vivado to get the correct set of PS initialization settings, even if the project only contains the Zynq PS in a block diagram.

There isn't much in the way of dedicated DSP features in the PS - this section of the Zynq TRM provides a feature overview: https://docs.amd.com/r/en-US/ug585-zynq-7000-SoC-TRM/Processing-System-PS-Features-and-Descriptions.
