Lets discuss multiprocessor structure based on c6711

Started by baelroga October 29, 2002
Hello, c6x!

i have got a problem,
How can i organize a multiprocessor structure (f.e. 8 processors
c6711) with maximum efficient of connect speed.
What can be useful:
Use global SRAM and make it accessible to all processors and/or use
connections between processors by serial ports (i am not sure but i
have not seen before exept fot c4x (it has 4 links as i know)the way
how i could connect two proceccors).

So the question is how to organize a multiprocessor structure on
c6711 more efficiently (may be there were ready made projects to
see), and how i can organize exchange of data between processors (not
using global SRAM).

Great thanks
Evgeny P.



Hi,friend,I think there are two way to do it.
(1)using Bi-FIFO to connect each DSP,if have 4 DSP, need 6 Bi-FIFO
(2) using Bi-FIFO to connect each DSP with a crossbar,crossbar can done by
a FPGA. so any DSP can communicate with any other DSP by crossbar

Use a SHARC instead ? :-)

Not very heplful, but they are better designed for multi-processor apps!

Cheers,
Martin

Gasp! And all this time I thought you were a true believer :-)
