The Tms320C6X Family of Dsps

This document discusses the features and architecture of the TMS320C6x family of digital signal processors (DSPs) from Texas Instruments. It describes the high performance of the TMS320C6413 and C6410 models, which can process up to 4000 and 3200 million instructions per second respectively. It outlines the DSPs' instruction set, register set, memory architecture including caches, timers, interrupts, and DMA controller. Block diagrams and explanations of the cache, timers, interrupt handling logic and service table are provided.

Timers
Two 32-bit timers used as timers/event/counters/interrupt
sources
Configuring a timer requires four basic steps:
If the timer is not currently in the hold state, place the timer in
hold (HLD = 0). Note that after device reset, the timer is already
in the hold state
Write the desired value to the timer period register (PRD).
Write the desired value to the timer control register (CTL). Do not
change the GO and HLD bits in CTL.
Start the timer by setting the GO and HLD bits in CTL to 1.
