Hi

I'm new to all things DSP and I'm having problems understanding some
of the instructions for using some of the MCBSP signals as GPIO on a
c6711 DSK....

I'm confused about the use of of the CSL instruction "MCBSP_setPins"
that clams to set the status of MCBSP signals configured as GPIO.  It
accepts a handle and a signal name....

My question is how do I specify whether to set the signal high or low???

On a related note, I've noticed the instruction "SET_PIN" in some of
TI's examples...  WHere can I find the include file for this???

Thanks in advance

Steve Minshull

The signals you specify are set high, the rest are all set low.

Is there any way of toggling individual signals rather than having to
specify each signal every time you call the function??

You can go a little faster by using direct instructions instead of CSL function
calls.  For example this line writes to TIMER1 control register, makes TOUT1 a
GPIO,
sets TOUT1 pin to high:

   *(unsigned volatile int*)TIMER1_CTRL = ((*(unsigned volatile
int*)TIMER1_CTRL) &
0xFFFFFFFA) | 4;

You can do similar for McBSP and GPIO registers.  Also you might want to disable
and
re-enable interrupts around such access.

But this is only going to gain some speed.  If I recall, C671x limits successive
I/O
pin access to around 90 nsec, so that's the lower limit.  This has to do with
internal CPU bus stalls.

Various options:

- Use MCBSP_getPins to get the current pin settings, modify and write back
using MCBSP_setPins.
- Use the MCBSP_RGETH and MCBSP_RSETH macros to read, modify and write the
PCR register. 

Either of these could be encapsulated as your own macro to keep the main
code cleaner.
