Embedded Target for Texas Instruments C6000 DSPs

Using This Guide

Expected Background

This document introduces you to using Embedded Target for C6000 DSPs with Real-Time Workshop to develop digital signal processing applications for the Texas Instruments CC6000 family of DSP development hardware, such as the TI TMS320C6701 Evaluation Module (C6701 EVM). To get the most out of this manual, readers should be familiar with MATLAB and its associated programs, such as DSP Blockset and Simulink. We do not discuss details of digital signal processor operations and applications, except to introduce concepts related to using the C6701 EVM or C6711 DSK. For more information about digital signal processing, you may find one or more of the following books helpful:

• McClellan, J. H., R. W. Schafer, and M. A. Yoder, "DSP First: A Multimedia Approach," Prentice Hall, 1998.
• Lapsley, P., J. Bier, A. Sholam, and E. A. Lee, "DSP Processor Fundamentals Architectures and Features," IEEE Press, 1997.
• Steiglitz, K, "A Digital Signal Processing Primer," Addison-Wesley Publishing Company, 1996.

For information about Code Composer Studio and Real-Time Data Exchange^TM (RTDX^TM), refer to your Texas Instruments documentation for each product. Refer to the documentation for your TI boards for information about setting them up and using them.

If You Are a New User

New users should read About the Embedded Target for TI C6000 DSP. This introduces the Embedded Target for TI C6000 DSP environment -- the required software and hardware, installation requirements, and the board configuration settings that you need. You will find descriptions of the blocks associated with the targeting software, and an introduction to the range of digital signal processing applications that Embedded Target for C6000 DSPs supports.

If You Are an Experienced User

All users should read Targeting C6000^TM DSP Hardware for information and examples about using the new blocks and build software to target both your C6701 EVM or your C6711 DSK. Two example models introduce the targeting software and build files, and give you an idea of the range of applications supported by Embedded Target for C6000 DSPs. Visit Confirming Your C6701 EVM Installation, to confirm that you installed and configured your C6701 EVM board to meet the needs of Embedded Target for C6000 DSPs. For C6711 DSK users, refer to Configuring Your C6711 DSK for more information about installing and using your C6711 DSK.
