Technical discussions about the TI C54x DSPs (including the c5401, c5402, c5402a, c5404, c5407, c5409, c5409a, c5410, c5410a, c5416, c5420, c5421, c5441, c549, c5470 and c5471).
Hi; 0- What is the features of C54x over C55x DSPs. I saw even C55x DSPs have not the paging limitation C54x users are more. why? Is there any thing in programming or working with them? 1- my data memory is 76KW, Program mem = 180KW, low power consumption, low cost (DSP + memory <40$) So which DSP is more proper? 2- I know that regarding to performance it is better to use internal memory but regarding to price the on-chip memory (DSP with all the required memory on chip) or off chip memory, which is better? 3- After searching in TI.com I chose C6204 and C5507 and c5510a. Regarding to memory limitation and working with them which of them are proper for my project? 4- Why the C6204 is so little in price compared to other c62x for example C6201? 5- If I decide to work with each of the above DSPs (c6204 or C5507 or 5510a) what are the required board for begining? have they DSK or EVM or I must use another boards? 6- I know that the flash memory is necessary on board for booting but is it necessary to have on board RAM? Can on-chip flash or ROM or RAM be used for both program and data memory in above DSPs?
