TMS320C30 Evaluation Module (EVM)The C3x Evaluation Module (EVM) provides a low-cost development board for device evaluation, benchmarking, and limited system debug. The EVM is a half-size AT board with a 33MHz C30 DSP, 16K words of SRAM, a TLC32044 analog interface chip (AIC) with two RCA jacks for line-level analog input and output, and a host port interface for communication with the PC. C3x EVM application software is available on the TI BBS.
The EVM uses embedded scan-based emulation via the on-board Test Bus Controller (TBC) IC. Using the scan path, the Debugger Software can run and halt the C3x and scan in and out all of the bits of each register. This basically gives XDS510 capability for a fixed target system enabling you to evaluate the C3x DSP and tools or begin development of software before your hardware is complete. EVM features include:
The C3x EVM package includes the PC Assembly Language Tools which consist of the assembler, archiver, linker and hex conversion utility. The C compiler is sold separately. The C3x EVM package also includes the same TMS320 Debugger Interface that is used with all TMS320 Simulator, Emulator and EVM products. |
