TMS320C6657-EVM Custom Hardware and
Board Design Services

The TMS320C66x+™ DSPs are the highest-performance fixed-point DSP generation in the TMS320C6000™ DSP platform. The C6657 device is based on the KeyStone architecture developed by Texas Instruments (TI). The C66x+ devices are code-compatible to previous devices that are part of the C6000™ DSP platform.

Developed by eInfochips, the C6657 Lite EVM with AMC Form-Factor enables developers to immediately start evaluating TMS320C6657 processor and begin building application around it especially those demanding high-performance computation like video & telecom infrastructures, medical and imaging.
