FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Westford, Massachusetts, Feb 11, 2001—Visual
Solutions Incorporated announces the release of version 2.0 of VisSim/TI
C2000 Rapid Prototyper. This new version includes blocks
for supporting the Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) bus, full compare
PWM output, I/O port read/write, and updated CAN support to
allow customization of TSEG1 and TSEG2, baud rate adjustment, transmit
control pins, and receive announce pins. CAN addresses can now be
changed on the fly. The download and flash burn utilities now support
both 30 MHz and 40 MHz parts at both 2x and 4x crystal rates. VisSim/TI C2000 Rapid Prototyper
lets you quickly design and test embedded
controllers and filters targeted for implementation on the Texas Instruments
C2000 family of Digital Signal Processors (DSPs) including the TI F243EVM, LF2407
EVM and the LF2407 eZdsp DSK.
The VisSim/TI C2000 Rapid Prototyper
includes:
- VisSim PE: a block
diagram based modeling, simulation and code generation environment.
- VisSim/Fixed Point™: fixed-point blocks and design tools
for simulation and code generation of scaled integer operations.
- Peripheral Blocks that automatically generate code for:
- 16 analog inputs,
- 16 PWM outputs,
- 41 digital I/O,
- 2 quadrature encoder inputs,
- 6 event capture (up to 1 MHZ resolution),
- 10 MHz SPI channel support,,
- CAN 2.0 bus, with six mailboxes,
- two 6-channel space vector PWM outputs
with deadband,
- serial port based LCD display.
TI C2000 Digital Motor Control (DMC) Block Set supporting
simulation and code generation of efficient, hand-coded assembler
versions for PI, PID, Park and Clarke transforms, Inverse Park
and Clarke, space vector wave form generators, event interval
to speed conversion.
VisSim-Code Composer Studio (CCS) plug-in for automatic CCS
project creation.
Automatic C code generation of production quality fixed-point
code, compile, link, and JTAG download to the TI F243/ LF 2407/
LF 2407 eZdsp.
TI C2000 CAN Bus Support
From 1x16 to 4x40 Serial LCD Support
Todd Solak, Worldwide Marketing Manager
Digital Controls System Group - Texas Instruments, says this about
the VisSim/TI C2000 Rapid Prototyper:
"The VisSim/TI C2000 Rapid Prototyper
is well integrated with our C2000 DSP EVMs . The combination of the VisSim/TI
C2000 Rapid Prototyper software and TI's C2000 DSPs provides designers
with an excellent embedded DSP control platform."
The TI LF2407 eZdsp DSK evaluation board
is the perfect complement to the VisSim/TI C2000 Rapid Prototyper
- 16 analog inputs, 16 PWM outputs (two complete 6 channel Space
Vector drivers), 2 quadrature encoder inputs, 64K of Flash RAM,
2MHZ CAN bus, 4 16-bit timers, 41 digital I/O's, 6 event capture
inputs (up to 8 MHZ) all on a single chip!
A VisSim/TI C2000 RP + eZdsp DSK bundle
which includes the VisSim/TI C2000 RP software, TI Code Composer
Studio™, plus the TI LF2407 eZdsp evaluation board (with JTAG
interface, power supply and parallel port cable) is available directly
from Visual Solutions for $3,795. An academic version is available,
including the LF2407 eZdsp, for $795.
The VisSim/TI-C2000 Rapid
Prototyper is the smarter, faster way for embedded control design.
