What will you learn?

1. Welcome
   • Introduction to TI DSP
   • C6000 Roadmap
   • Where to get more information
     
     
2. Introduction to C6000 and CCS
   • C6000 CPU architechture
   • Overview of Code Composer Studio™
   • Creating and Building CCS projects
   • C6416 DSK Hardware and Software
   • Lab 1:
     • Installing the DSK Hardware
     • Create and Build a CCS project (graph sine wave)
     • Debug the program
       
       
3. C6000 Peripherals
   • Overview of C6000 Peripherals
   • Programming peripherals with the Chip Support Library (CSL)
   • DSK programming examples and Board Support Library (BSL)
   • Lab 2:
     • Output sine wave via McBSP and Codec
     • Use BSL functions provided with DSK
     • Examine CSL functions used in BSL code
       
       
4. Using the C6000 System tools and Software
   • Overview of C6000 System Tools and Software:
     • DSP/BIOS Scheduler (HWI, SWI, TSK, IDL)
     • Real-time Analysis (RTA)
     • Real-Time Data Transfer (RTDX)
     • I/O miniDriver model (IOM)
     • DSP Algorithm Interface Standard (xDAIS)
     • Reference Frameworks (RF)
   • Lab 3:
     • Use “Audio pass-through” application based on Reference Framework, to explore:
       1. Using the EDMA to move data from/to McBSP
       2. IOM drivers
       3. Adapting a Reference Framework
     • Optional Lab:
       • Use RTDX to control an algorith
         
         
5. Optimizing C6000 Code

• Optimizing Code using C Compiler
• Enabling Cache Memory for better performance
• Using TI’s DSP Image Library (IMGLib)
• Lab 4:
  • Use image correlation algorithm as basis for unoptimized code
  • Compare effect of all three code optimizations discussed in chapter against unoptimized code
• Optional Lab:
  • Adapt Reference Framework from Lab 3 by adding a new thread to perform the image correlation
  • Use two different methods to correct real-time problems created by integrating the new algorithm
