In-Depth Information
only provides an introduction to 'C6000 technology, but is also powerful
enough to use for fast development of networking, communications, imag-
ing, and other applications. Operating at 150 MHz, the 'C6711 delivers an
impressive 1200 MIPs and 600 MFLOPs for only $22. The 'C6711 DSK
replaces and is a superset of the 'C6211 DSK. The 'C6711 is binary code
compatible with the 'C6211. C, assembly, and executable code written for
the 'C6211 will run without modification on the 'C6711. The C6711 DSK
board and its components are shown in
Figure E.3

The 'C6711 DSK comes with an array of DSK-specific software function-
ality (256 KB software image memory limited), including the highly efficient
'C6000 C compiler and assembly optimizer, code composer debugger, and
DSK support software (flash utility, sample programs, and confidence tests).
The daughter card interface socket provides a method for accessing most of
the C6711 DSP for hardware extension.
