(Helps to Practically Learn & Understand DSP Processing in Real time)

DSP Development Tools contains wide verities of Fixed & Floating Point DSPs that follows C5000, C6000 & Keystone with single core to multi core architecture, making it ideal for low power to high end application as well as a standalone board.

Application from biomedical signal processing to Avionics can be implemented in following kits with robust on-board connectivity options.

DSP Starter Kits

The TMS320C6748 DSP Evaluation kit (EVM) is a scalable platform that breaks down development barriers for applications that require embedded analytics and real-time signal processing, including biometric analytics, communications and audio. The low-cost EVM will also speed and ease your hardware development of real-time DSP applications. This new board reduces design work with freely downloadable and duplicable board schematics and design files. A wide variety of standard interfaces for connectivity and storage enable you to easily bring audio, Image and other signals onto the board.

The EVM does not have an onboard emulator. An external emulator from TI (such as the XDS100, XDS200, XDS510, XDS560) or a third-party will be required to start development.
