1.1 Introduction

The TMS320C5515 digital signal processor (DSP) contains a high-performance, low-power DSP to
efficiently handle tasks required by portable audio, wireless audio devices, industrial controls, software
defined radio, fingerprint biometrics, and medical applications. The C5515 DSP consists of the following
primary components:
A C55x CPU and associated memory
FFT hardware accelerator
Four DMA controllers and external memory interface
Power management module
A set of I/O peripherals that includes I2S, I2C, SPI, UART, Timers, EMIF, 10-bit SAR ADC, LCD
Controller, USB 2.0
For more information on these components see the following documents:
TMS320C55x 3.0 CPU Reference Guide (SWPU073).
TMS320C55x DSP Peripherals Overview Reference Guide (SPRU317).
