I am looking for a good DSP course this Summer or Fall in North America. I will work on AD Blackfin soon so the course better includes Blackfin. I have limited experience on TI DSPs before. Could you please recommend me one? Thanks in in advance! Johnson

I have limited experience on TI DSPs before. Could you > please recommend me one?I recommend you the BlackFin Hardware Reference Manual. It has all the information that you may ever need. Especially as the class can't liberate you from reading the manual. The only purpose of the training classes like that is having the vacation paid by the company; so the main question is if the class is located at the proper place: Las Vegas, Cancun, SanFran, whatever you like.

I hope the course focuses on the Blackfin, programming and applications, while also mention the state art of concurrent DSP as well. Johnson

Most people, including me, wants to learn at the proper place. However, if I have to choose, the knowledge is more important. I can attend a class in the basement. :-)

To be any good requires a significant investment in time. However you can certainly find courses that will claim to teach you in a week, but when you try to actually do the work, you will find out how much time and money you wasted. Used to be a course called "DSP Without Tears". 5 days I think. I saw the results of that at one company I worked at. Not productive. Dirk
