Overview

The TI C6000 C/C++ compiler and assembly language tools are an essential component of the CCStudio™ development ecosystem, providing robust support for TI C6000™ digital signal processor (DSP) platforms. They are engineered to maximize the potential of C66x multi-core as well as C674x and C64x+ single-core DSPs.

The CCStudio™ IDE is the integrated development environment for TI embedded devices. When starting development, it is recommended to begin by downloading the IDE as it includes the necessary TI compilers.
