Announcing my new book (scheduled for publication on November 19): "Digital
Signal Processing with the C6713 and C6416 DSK," Wiley, 2005.  The C6713 DSK
has replaced the C6711 DSK.  Some new features of my new book compared with
my previous book based on the C6711 DSK:

* There are 105 programming examples (as opposed to 76)
* New Chapter on DSP/BIOS and Real-Time Data Exchange (RTDX)
* Very extensive Chapter on students projects (22 undergraduate and graduate
projects) and Applications such as: DTMF, BPSK, Spectrogram, Speech
Synthesis, etc.

The publisher John Wiley offers a 15% discount on my new book only if it is
purchased within 14 days after accessing Wiley's link FROM my web site at
http://ece.wpi.edu/~chassaing

An extensive Table of Contents and a list of the programming examples in the
book are posted on my web site. Please feel free to contact me.

Hi,

I am new to DSP and have been thinking about picking up Dr.
Chassing's last book, I think I will wait for this one as it sounds
more comprehensive encompassing two different processors. I haven't
yet bought hardware. I have noticed C6711 DSKs and EVMs for sale on
eBay in the past. Does anyone have an opinion what hardware to buy?
As well what does the group think of Dr. Chassing's book offerings?

Thank you. --- In , "Webmaster" <webmaster@d...> wrote:

Hello 'fourier2006',
 
A few random comments that reflect my own prejudiced opinion - since what is 'best' can vary from person to person -
1. Dr Chassaing's books are alway very good - you just need to match the book with your hardware.
2. The 6713 DSK replaced the 6711 DSK and has better analog I/O.
3. The 6416 has more raw horsepower, but is fixed point only.
4. Beware - some of the suff you see on eBay is very old which means that the version of CCS is very old.

If you need fixed point only, max speed go with 6416 DSK.

If you need floating point, go with 6713 DSK.

If you don't know, buy the book first then decide.

Fourier2006-(Thats an interesting name? You graduating in 2006 or
something???)

Dr. Chassaing's books are very useful for the to-be practioner's of DSP.

I used his previous book on c6x DSK(6711 and 6211) and i found it extremely
well structured and purposeful.Of the many things what i found very helpful
was an entire chapter devoted to the I/O techniques using AD535. In
hindsight This hepled me save a lot of sweat when i was working on few
projects. Normally i would have just jumped onto the process architecture
and take on the CODEC's issues as when required. I have always struggled
with this approach to be honest but if you follow his book you wouldnt fall
into that trap.

Anyways,

I understand that one of the concerns of folks buying target oriented books
is that they suspect that there is going to be lots of *manual reproduction*
(as opposed to throwing more light on to dark/hidden areas of the manual)
and padding up of the book with code listings. Fear not that with
Dr.Chassaing!

Bests.
