4.5 Versatile Performance Boosting Compute Engine (CLA)

Many C2000 devices have a CLA (Control Law Accelerator) which runs at the same frequency as the C28x CPU and can be utilized in two different ways to achieve real-time application goals.

  • CLA executing full signal chain - CLA executing independent of C28x CPU, freeing up C28x CPU for other activities and effectively doubling the available MIPS.
  • C28x CPU offloading compute to CLA - parallelism resulting in better execution performance by reducing the sample to output response time.

* As indicated in the Note, F28004x execution from RAM is the reference.

CLA runs from RAM only and hence does not have a Flash execution data point.
