DSP-Board D.Module2.C6657

The D.Module2.C6657 is based on the Texas Instruments Keystone dual-core processor TMS320C6657. The Keystone multicore DSPs are characterized by huge computational power and fast serial interfaces.

Key Features

  • TMS320C6657 dual-core DSP
  • Gbit Ethernet, PCIe
  • 512 Mbytes RAM
  • high throughput parallel and serial peripheral interfaces
  • I2C, SPI, UART, USB, and GPIO
  • stand-alone operation

Applications

The D.Module2.C6657 is perfectly suitable for radar applications, nondestructive material inspection, machine vision and software defined radio (SDR). An optional FPGA for data preprocessing is easily interfaced through Serial Rapid IO (SRIO), PCI express (PCIe) or via the fast Universal Parallel Port (uPP). Gigabit Ethernet enables network integration for control, remote maintenance and data streaming.
