Low-cost DSP development tool

11 November 2009 DSP, Micros & Memory

For many designers, the cost and time to set up development tools is a major barrier when evaluating a new digital signal processor (DSP) platform. To lower this barrier, Texas Instruments has developed the TMS320VC5505 eZdsp USB stick development tool, enabling rapid creation of DSP applications including portable audio players, voice recorders, IP phones, portable medical devices, biometric USB keys, sofware defined radios (SDRs), hands-free headsets and metering applications. At its low price point, it makes development accessible to existing and potential customers, hobbyists, researchers and students.

Comparable to the size of a stick of gum, the C5505 eZdsp stick simplifies development by providing integrated features such as an onboard XDS100 emulator and onboard audio codec and connectors. Taking advantage of the energy efficient C5505 DSP, the eZdsp requires no other components or cables, allowing the entire development tool to be powered by the USB port.

An extension connector allows developers to design and directly connect to daughter cards suitable for their application. The solution includes the complete Code Composer Studio version 4 integrated development environment (IDE) free of charge. Stereo line in and headphone out connectors make it possible to evaluate many DSP algorithms and listen to them.
