TMS320C62x
Evaluation Module (EVM)
EVM Software
Complementing the 'C62x platform's hardware is equally groundbreaking software. The environment is founded on the generation's highly advanced C compiler and TI's revolutionary Assembly Optimizer that give hardware designers a highly efficient, user-centered way to extract the VelociTI architecture's code parallelisms, which makes the platform so powerful. The combination of the highly advanced C compiler optimization and the industry's first DSP Assembly Optimizer allows designers to quickly tune code, yielding fast time-to-market with powerful and differentiated products.
In addition to code generation tools, the 'C62x EVM includes other system host and DSP support software.
- Board configuration utility - This software is used to reset and configure the board.
- EVM confidence test utility - Used to test the basic operation of the board, this utility verifies the correct hardware and software installation.
- 'C62x COFF loader utility - This utility is used to lad and execute 'C62x software on the board.
- EVM Win32 DLL - The Win32 host libraries include both Windows 95 and Windows NT versions that provide software access for control and communication with the EVM board.
- Example source code - The EVM includes example code that illustrates how to use the host Win32 dynamic link library (DLL) functions.
The 'C62x EVM takes the high performance of 'C62x hardware and software and wraps it into an easy-to-use kit, allowing designers to experience the simplicity and power of the industry's most advanced DSPs and DSP development environment. At the same time, it enables them to begin creating designs to revolutionize their own industries.
