Introduction
This chapter provides an overview of the TMS320C3x DSP Starter Kit (DSK).
The ’C3x DSK is a low-cost, simple, high-performance stand-alone application
development board that lets you experiment with and use TMS320C3x DSPs
for real-time signal processing. The DSK has a TMS320C31 on board to allow
full-speed verification of the TMS320C3x code. The DSK also gives you the
freedom to build new boards, create your own software on a host PC, down-
load the software to the DSK, and run the software on the DSK board. The sup-
plied debugger is windows-oriented, simplifying code development and de-
bugging capabilities.
