description

The TMS320F241, TMS320C241, and TMS320C242 devices are members of the '24x family of DSP controllers based on the TMS320C2xx generation of 16-bit fixed-point digital signal processors (DSPs). Table 1 provides a comparison of the features of each device. The difference between 'F241 and 'C241 is the type of program memory: the 'C241 contains 8K words of ROM and the 'F241 contains 8K words of flash. The difference between 'C241 and 'C242 is the size of the program memory. 'C242 has 4K words of ROM. Moreover, 'C242 does not contain the controller area network (CAN) module, which is available in 'F241 and 'C241. This new family is optimized for digital motor/motion control applications. The DSP controllers combine the enhanced TMS320 architectural design of the 'C2xx core CPU for low-cost, high-performance processing capabilities and several advanced peripherals optimized for motor/motion control applications. These peripherals include the event manager module, which provides general-purpose timers and PWM registers to generate PWM outputs, and a single,10-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC), which can perform conversion within 1 us. See the functional block diagram.
