Product Description

• Introduction and Key Features
• Working with Target Support Package™ TC6
• Using the Core Support and Board Support Libraries
• Profiling and Optimizing Generated Code
• Using the Asynchronous Scheduler
• Using the Host Communication and DSP/BIOS Libraries with External Mode

Introduction

Target Support Package™ TC6 integrates MATLAB® and Simulink® with TI's eXpressDSP™ tools and C6000™ processors. Together, these products let you develop and validate signal processing algorithms from concept through code by performing automatic code generation, prototyping, and embedded system deployment on C6000 processors.

Using the Target Support Package TC6 product and your TI development tools with Embedded IDE Link CC™, Real-Time Workshop®, and Real-Time Workshop® Embedded Coder™ (all available separately), you can generate a C-language real-time implementation of your Simulink model. Target Support Package TC6 supports TI's C67x™ floating-point DSPs and C62x™ and C64x™ fixed-point DSPs, including onboard and on-chip DSP peripherals. It supports several evaluation boards, including the DM642EVM, DM6437EVM, C6416DSK, and C6713DSK.

Key Features

• Automates the execution, testing, verification, and validation of generated code on TI's C6000™ processors
• Enables real-time evaluation of system designs on DM642EVM, C6713DSK, C6416DSK, C6455DSK, PADK6727, and DM6437EVM boards
• Supports custom boards based on all DSP devices in the C6xxx families and supports RTOS (DSP/BIOS) integration
• Supports external-mode feature for real-time tuning and monitoring of embedded applications
• Supports code profiling to identify regions of generated code suitable for manual optimization
• Provides block-level access to on-chip peripherals, such as ADC, DAC, and target memory
• Provides specialized block libraries for Ethernet host and target communication
• Provides optimized assembler-coded C62x and C64x signal processing block libraries for simulation and code generation
• Provides blocks for implementing real-time execution scheduling schemes for synchronous and asynchronous tasks
