FYI - the c6711 has 2 McBSP ports.

Hi,

Some months ago, I finished a project whose goal was to establish communication between two 6713 DSK. I did it using McBSP and connecting some pins from the External Peripheral Port of both boards. I think that McBSP is not supported by 6711, but this might give you some idea.

Good luck,

Pablo L.

You should clarify the definition of "working together in a parallel program".
Will one always be the master and the other the slave?? Or can
mastership be exchanged between the 2??

Some clarification of exactly what you are trying to do would help.
I am not sure of the purpose of the 14 pin JTAG cable.

idea #1 - Simplest hardware, low performance depending on data
transfer size, ok for proof of concept.
If I remember correctly, there was some traffic on this group quite a
while ago on using McBSP-to-McBSP communication.
This would require only a cable [assuming a short distance] with TxFS,
RxFS, clock, TxData, RxData, and ground for data communications.
Ideally you would use a second McBSP channel [with another 5 wires]
for messaging, but this would eliminate codec access.
Is codec access required for your project??

idea #2 - A professional grade solution, expensive, requires FPGA
programming, can give maximum performance
Obtain 2 FPGA daughtercards. These are sold as coprocessors or
customizable parallel I/O cards. They can be programmed to include
FIFOs, hardware semaphores, multiple channels, and several others
helpful functions.
You can then connect the I/O pins with a cable and configure the FPGA
to meet your requirements.

There are dozens of possibilities in between.

Another possibility -- one that I've seen some DSP labs / Professors assign before -- is to use EMIF on DSK board A to
control HPI on DSK board B. The student typically runs a very short cable between the daughterboard connectors.

I seem to remember this method can be implemented without additional circuitry: the /CEn line on the DSK A
daughterboard is tied to /HCS, ARDY is tied to HRDY, ARW is tied to HR/W, and addr lines 2:3 are used for HCNTL0 and
HCNTL1. Plus 16-bit data bus. One complication would be the HWIL bit (half-word signal), it would need to connect to
an EMIF address line also.

Note to OP -- this is just a general description, so don't try it without first studing the EMIF and HPI interfaces
very carefully.

Joan,

methods of communication of data between DSPs includes:
wire RS232 or ARINC buses between the DSPs and communicate the data over the buses.
