This is simulator program for Texas Dsps which can be used on Windows95/NT ( probably also 98 ). With its familiar MS-Visual C++ like environment , Code Composer lets you edit, build, debug, profile and manage projects from a single unified environment. Other unique features include graphical signal analysis, injection/extraction of data signals via file I/O, multi-processor debugging, automated testing and customization via a C-interpretive scripting language and much more. The program does not include a C-compiler,assembler and linker. I bought the TMS320C54X Code Generation Tools from Texas. Thus, the Composer uses the Texas Comiler,assembler and linker. An emulator program is also available from go-dsp,called Code Composer Emulator. On their hompage I think they call this package "Code Composer" and the simulator is named "Code Composer Simulator". You need the emulator program if you want to run the code against your hardware from the computer,but you also need an interface to connect to your hardware. Best regards Torgeir Jakobsen e-mail:
