Ethernet Communications

For embedded DSP applications requiring a 10/100Base-T Ethernet communications capability, the micro-line C6412Compact is recommended.

The micro-line C6412Compact offers a highly flexible DSP/FPGA single board solution for developers requiring and integrated DSP and FPGA, together with on-board 10/100Base-T Ethernet, USB 2.0, and IEEE 1394a FireWire connectivity. It can be used as a stand-alone system, or as a mezzanine daughtercard embedded within a larger system or board design.

The design incorporates a high performance (600Mhz or 720MHz) TMS320C6412 Integer DSP Processor, a high density 1MGate or 4MGate Spartan-3 FPGA, 10/100Base-T Ethernet interface, USB 2.0 slave interface, and two IEEE 1394a FireWire controllers with independent interfaces. Up to 128MBytes of SDRAM and and up to 32MBytes of Boot Program FLASH are also included.

Texas Instruments Network Development Kit TCP/IP software can be used with the C6412Compact, in conjunction with the corresponding C6412Compact NDK Support Package (NSP). Texas Instruments' NDK software is now available as a free product download from the TI website; it is free for development and production. However, the optionally available C6412Compact NSP must be purchased.

TI's NDK software includes binaries for the TCP/IP stack, together with source and binary libraries for network applications, jumbo packet buffer manager, and device drivers:

  • Core TCP/IP protocol stack: Dual-mode IPv6/IPv4 stack in binary only including VLAN packet priority marking, TCP, UDP, ICMP, IGMP, IP, and ARP
  • Network applications: HTTP, TELNET, TFTP, DNS, DHCP (IPv4 only) in both source and binary form
  • Application Programming interfaces: BSD Sockets, including support for raw Ethernet
  • Device drivers: Pre-tested device drivers in source and binary form for the on-chip EMACs of supported DSPs.

Required to use NDK:

  • DSP/BIOS and Code Composer Studio IDE (CCStudio) v3.3 or above

SC100BaseTx

The SC100BaseTx Ethernet interface module was developed for use with Windmill Innovations' bf3Net TCP/IP protocol stack for micro-line embedded DSP systems, optional bf3Web embedded webserver, and additional application protocols. Availability is currently restricted to existing bf3Net customers only:
