3L-C6000-01

Overview

Diamond provides the best tools for fast development of multi-processor DSP projects on systems using one or many C6000s. Compilation, linking and debugging are done using Texas Instruments' Code Composer Studio, to which Diamond adds a comprehensive framework for multi-processor software development.

Key Features:

Diamond offers C6000 users:

Off-the-shelf solutions to communication, synchronization, and deadlock problems;
Built-in drivers for inter-processor communication hardware on supported boards;
Transparent, deadlock-free communication between DSPs, independent of network topology;
Access to host services, C standard I/O and Windows GUI, from all DSPs in the system.
Bulk data transfer between the host and any DSP in the system over high-speed inter-processor links, leaving the slow JTAG chain free for debugging;
A clean, simple, easy-to-understand framework for multi-processor software design, proven over more than 15 years of real-world use;
Unique flexibility to develop multiprocessor software on single-processor hardware and then later deploy on multiprocessor hardware without code changes, recompilation, or relinking;
A multi-processor, multi-threading microkernel with pre-emptive, priority-based real-time scheduling and a context switch time around 500ns (200MHz CPU);
Support for networks of mixed C6000 types.
