10.3. Performance and Data Throughput

The following table gives the data transfer rates between different memory, processor and interface resources on the Monaco board. Monaco boards using the TMS320C6201 processor have a clock speed of 200 MHz; Monaco67 boards using the TMS230C6701 processor have a clock speed of 167 MHz.
