Texas Instruments TMS320C67X/C67X+ DSP manual Introduction

Chapter 1

Introduction

The TMS320C6000™ digital signal processor (DSP) platform is part of the TMS320™ DSP family. The TMS320C62x™ DSP generation and the TMS320C64x™ DSP generation comprise fixed-point devices in the C6000™ DSP platform, and the TMS320C67x™ DSP generation comprises floating- point devices in the C6000 DSP platform. All three DSP generations use the VelociTI™ architecture, a high-performance, advanced very long instruction word (VLIW) architecture, making these DSPs excellent choices for multi- channel and multifunction applications.

The TMS320C67x+ DSP is an enhancement of the C67x DSP with added functionality and an expanded instruction set.

Any reference to the C67x DSP or C67x CPU also applies, unless otherwise noted, to the C67x+ DSP and C67x+ CPU, respectively.
