Texas Instruments (TI) designs and manufactures analog and digital semiconductor IC products for the world market. In addition to analog technologies, digital signal processing (DSP) and microcontroller (MCU) semiconductors, TI designs and manufactures semiconductor solutions for analog and digital ...
The main circuit board that contains the processor, main memory, circuitry, bus controller, connectors, and primary components of the computer. The TMS320C8x software development board (SDB) is connected to the motherboard through the peripheral component interconnect (PCI) local bus. Depending upon the computer system design, daughter boards, expansion boards, input/output boards, other boards, or additional memory may also be connected to the motherboard using the bus controller.
Industry:Semiconductors
Any entity capable of sending and receiving messages, such as a processor port.
Industry:Semiconductors
A condition that is handled outside the normal program flow of a task. An exception in a task is the software equivalent of a hardware interrupt in a processor.
Industry:Semiconductors
The message port to which a message is sent. See also port ID.
Industry:Semiconductors
The multimedia video processor’s (MVP’s) on-chip direct memory access (DMA) controller for servicing the cache and for transferring one-, two-, and three-dimensional data blocks between each processor on the MVP and its external memory.
Industry:Semiconductors
Coder-decoder, or compression/decompression. A device that codes in one direction of transmission and decodes in another direction of transmission.
Industry:Semiconductors
Command parameters that allow you to request additional or specific functions when you invoke a software tool.
Industry:Semiconductors
The parallel printer port interface is primarily used for connecting printers to the computer system, although the parallel port can also be used for other peripherals. In this case, the ’C3x digital signal processor starter kit (DSK) is connected to the parallel printer port.
Industry:Semiconductors
A device that converts a signal represented by a series of numbers (digital) to a continuously varying signal (analog). See also digital-to-analog.
Industry:Semiconductors
The parallel processor data port with access restricted to a parallel processor’s local RAMs.
