Hi,
I'm entering the brave new world of TI DSPs from a world of (far simpler) PICs, and I'm having some difficulty building my first test circuit... I'm trying to hook up a C5501 or C6204 (haven't decided yet) with: - Micron SDRAM - Intel Flash RAM - Xilinx CPLD - Audio A/D & D/A (TLV320AIC23) - RS232 (Max232) - (Future revisions will hook up to a CMOS imager, a Compact Flash card adaptor, The Spectrum Digital reference designs, while useful, are also very complex and feature many parts. Just for power regulation, the C5502 EVM reference design involves two IC (TPS76733QD and TPS62000) and about two dozens passives. Is all that required just to power the chip?? I'm looking for the simplest possible circuit that properly powers the chip, correctly sets up the crystal, has JTAG support and talks to SDRAM... Have you seen in your travels some reference designs that are simpler and feature less parts? (In other words, what is a `basic design' that most beginners can effectively learn from?) Many thanks for any hints you can offer!! Jean-Pierre |
Any simple reference designs available to get started with TI DSPs?
