TMS320C6472 – EVM Custom Software Product Development

TMS320C64x+ DSPs are the highest-performance multicore DSP generation in the TMS320C6000™ DSP platform. TMS320C6472 device is based on the third-generation high-performance, advanced VelociTI™ VLIW architecture developed by Texas Instruments (TI). C64x+™ devices are upward code-compatible with previous devices that are part of the C6000™ DSP platform. Developed by eInfochips, the C6472 Evaluation Module (with AMC like form factor) enables developers to immediately start evaluating TMS320C6472 processor and begin building application products around it especially those demanding high-performance computation like video & telecom infrastructures, medical and imaging.

TMDSEVM6472

The TMDSEVM6472 comes with on board XDS100 emulation capability. An external emulator via TI-60 pin JTAG emulation header can also be used.

TMDSEVM6472LE

The TMDSEVM6472LE comes with integrated XDS560v2 emulation capability. This emulator is mounted on the TI 60-pin JTAG header in the form of a Mezzanine card.
