The MathWorks Improves System-Level Design With Enhancements to Developers Kit for Texas Instruments DSP.Business/Technology Editors NATICK, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 19, 2002 --Latest Product Extends Support for Key TI Technologies Through Compatibility with Code Composer Studio 2.1-- The MathWorks, Inc., the leading developer and supplier of technical computing software for engineers and scientists, today announced the availability of the Developer's Kit for Texas Instruments See TI. (company) Texas Instruments - (TI) A US electronics company. A TI engineer, Jack Kilby invented the integrated circuit in 1958. Three TI employees left the company in 1982 to start Compaq. DSP (1) (Digital Signal Processor) A special-purpose CPU used for digital signal processing applications (see definition #2 below). It provides ultra-fast instruction sequences, such as shift and add, and multiply and add, which are commonly used in math-intensive 1.2, which allows systems and software engineers to develop and verify DSP algorithms in one integrated environment, thereby efficiently producing designs. The new version provides improved integration with eXpressDSP(TM) software and development tools through its compatibility with Code Composer Studio(TM) 2.0 and 2.1 and expanded code generation support for popular TI DSP devices. With the new release, the Developer's Kit for TI DSP 1.2 provides faster, bi-directional data transfer between MATLAB (MATrix LABoratory) A programming language for technical computing from The MathWorks, Natick, MA (www.mathworks.com). Used for a wide variety of scientific and engineering calculations, especially for automatic control and signal processing, MATLAB runs on Windows, Mac and and TI DSPs, enabling analysis and visualization of DSP applications. The new version of the Developer's Kit extends support for TI's RTDX RTDX Real-Time Data Exchange (TM) (Real-Time Data Real-time data denotes information that is delivered immediately after collection. There is no delay in the timeliness of the information provided. Some uses of this term confuse it with the term dynamic data. Exchange) technology to Simulink for bi-directional, real-time host/target data exchange without halting the target. The new RTDX blocks provide a real-time "window" into a running DSP application. The Developer's Kit now also provides a TMS TMS Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (alternative medicine for depression) TMS Test Match Special (sports - cricket) TMS Texas Motor Speedway TMS Transportation Management System TMS Toyota Motor Sales 320C6711 DSK DSK Disk DSK Dominique Strauss-Kahn (French Finance Minister 1997-99) DSK Deutsche Steinkohle AG DSK DSP Starter Kit (Texas Instruments) DSK Downstream Keyer DSK Dvorak Standard Keyboard (DSP Starter Kit) code generation target from Simulink and Real-Time Workshop. Useful for rapid prototyping Building a part one layer at a time using a method of additive fabrication such as 3D printing. Such parts are used for concept modeling to determine if the product design meets the customer's expectations. , this code generation target lets DSP developers validate and verify DSP applications from the Simulink environment and automatically build, execute and download the program to the C6711DSK board for real-time evaluation. Finally, the Developer's Kit supports TI's Code Composer Studio XDS XDS Cross-enterprise Document Sharing XDS Extended Data Service (television data transmission service) XDS X/Open Directory Services XDS Xerox Data Systems XDS X-Ray Spectrometer Detector System XDS Existing Data Study XDS Xml Data Synthesis 510(TM) emulator as a hardware target for intensive software debugging. "We are committed to providing our customers with enhancements to a reliable product that will speed TI DSP-based applications to market," said Ken Karnofsky, Director of Marketing, DSP and Communications at The MathWorks. "With the new features, engineers can validate their DSP designs earlier and focus on code optimization and design innovation." "The unique integration of MATLAB with Code Composer Studio and the product enhancements to the Developer's Kit for Texas Instruments DSP allows software engineers working on TMS320 DSPs to be exceptionally confident in the code they deliver," said Omar Fattah, eXpressDSP Plug-in Manager at Texas Instruments. "Since the inception of our collaboration with The MathWorks in 2000, our strategy to provide tools that empower our customers to quickly design, simulate and validate the performance of DSP algorithms in real-time has proven extremely successful." Platform, Pricing and Availability The Developer's Kit for Texas Instruments DSP 1.2 from The MathWorks is currently shipping for Microsoft(R) Windows(R) 2000, NT, 98 and operating systems Operating systems can be categorized by technology, ownership, licensing, working state, usage, and by many other characteristics. In practice, many of these groupings may overlap. , and works with Code Composer Studio 2.0 and Code Composer Studio 2.1 from TI. Pricing starts at $1,000 for an individual PC license.
