Embedded Vision Alliance Platinum member Texas Instruments recently unveiled two new EVMs (evaluation modules) for the company's KeyStone-based TMS320C665x multicore digital signal processors (DSPs), the TMS320C6654, TMS320C6655 and TMS320C6657. Quoting from the press release (bolded emphasis is mine):
Combining fixed- and floating-point capabilities, TI's C665x multicore processors deliver real-time high performance at low power coupled with smaller form factors so that developers can more effectively meet the requirements of markets such as mission critical, industrial automation, testers, embedded vision, imaging, video surveillance, medical, and audio and video infrastructure.
Here's more, on the evaluation modules themselves:
TI's TMDSEVM6657L sells for $349, and the TMDSEVM6657LE sells for $549. Both EVMs include a free Multicore Software Development Kit (MCSDK), TI's Code Composer Studio(TM) integrated development environment and suite of application/demo codes to allow programmers to quickly come up to speed on the new platform. In addition, TI's TMDSEVM6657L includes an embedded XDS100 emulator, while the TMDSEVM6657LE includes a faster emulator, the XDS560V2, for quicker program load and ease of use.
