Take Command of the TMS320C203 DSP!

The 'C203 DSP from TI offers a balance of price and performance up to 40 MIPS that challenges microcontrollers and other DSPs in the industry.

Multiple integrated peripheral functions, including a 16-bit timer, software wait-state generator, a synchronous serial port with a 4-word deep buffer, and an asynchronous serial port (UART), complement the inherent processing power of the 'C203.

Features of the TMS320C203 include:

  • 20 to 40 MIPS operation
  • Prices as low as US $4.70* (100K units) or US $0.12 per MIPS**
  • 25ns instruction cycle time in 5V mode
  • 50ns instruction cycle time in 3V mode
  • Typical active power: 1.9mA/MIPS at 5V and 1.1 mA/MIPS at 3V
  • 544 x 16 words of internal DARAM and 224K words of total address space
  • IEEE 1149.1-standard (JTAG) emulator control
  • Available Boot loader
  • Full-duplex synchronous serial port with 4-level-deep FIFO
  • Full-duplex asynchronous serial port (UART)
  • Source code compatible with the TMS320C1x/'C2x generations
  • 100-pin TQFP package

Please note that a pricing error was made in the 'C203 mailer you received. *Actual pricing for the 'C203 40 MIPS version is US $4.70 (100K units). **Actual cost per MIPS for the 'C203 40 MIPS version is US $0.12. We apologize for any confusion this may have caused.
