DSK C6711 / C6211 Real-Time High-Speed Data Transfer

• Suitable for real-time communication between C/C++ and MATLAB programs and Texas Instruments DSK 6711 and 6211 boards

• Replaces CCS (Code Composer Studio) file I/O functions for data transfer.  CCS file I/O functions depend on data transfer over a JTAG debug emulator link and are very slow and not suitable for real-time communication

• Software includes a DLL that uses the PC parallel port to communicate directly with the HPI interface on the C6711 or C6211 DSP chip

  • This DLL is independent of the TI DLL that comes with the DSK, and provides improved performance and reliability.

  • One reason Signalogic created its own DLL was to correctly deal with errata in the C6711 HPI port, which the TI DLL doesn't do

• Part of the popular DirectDSP software, uses standard DirectDSP APIs

• Runs under WinXP. No separate driver or other software install required. Can be used independently of CCS (doesn't matter whether CCS is installed)
