Systems using TI Embedded Processors

January 5, 2013 | 2:00 pm – 3:30 pm

Venue – NIELIT Chennai

Speaker: Dr. C.P. Ravikumar, Texas Instruments, India

Abstract
Power, performance, and price are the three most important considerations in the embedded systems market. Efficient hardware and software design principles can help in building such systems. In this talk, we will explore the space of embedded processors and analog integrated circuits which play a crucial role in the construction of efficient embedded systems. Embedded processors can be of three types – digital signal processors, microcontrollers, and microprocessors. More recently, multicore platforms which combine more than one type of these processors are also being introduced for certain markets. Texas Instruments provides a wide spectrum of embedded processors to cater to the diverse needs of customers. We will explore the main categories of embedded processors from TI and look at their typical end applications. We will also look at the topic of “system design” and identify the salient skills that a student must acquire to be competitive in the domain of embedded systems.

Vaibhav Ostwal — Mon, 24 Jun 2013 14:30:00 GMT

Abstract

The two-day workshop will use OMAP- L138 LCDK to reinforce the teaching of DSP theory by means of hands-on laboratory experiments. Participants will be guided through a number of example exercises taken from the book “Digital Signal Processing and Applications using the OMAP-L138 eXperimenter”. Some background knowledge of linear systems theory, microprocessor programming (in C), DSP theory, and Fourier transforms would be useful but not absolutely essential. The workshop will aim to cater to participants with a range of backgrounds. The workshop will be split into the following lab sessions:

1) Introduction to the OMAP-L138 eXperimenter/LCDK and Code Composer Studio

2) Analogue input and output using the OMAP-L138

3) Introduction to FIR filtering

4) Introduction to IIR filtering

5) The fast Fourier transform

6) Adaptive filtering

7) Introduction to SYS/BIOS

Each lab session will comprise a short introductory presentation and demonstration and then participants will follow instructions from a lab sheet under guidance from the instructor.

Free Workshop
Real-Time DSP: A Hands-On Tutorial Using the OMAP-L138/C6748 LCDK

Monday, May 27, 2013 9am - 4:00pm (lunch included)
Vancouver Convention Centre
Room 114/115

Presented by: Thad B. Welch (Boise State University) and Michael G. Morrow (University of Wisconsin - Madison)

Description

This full day interactive workshop will introduce the use of the OMAP-L138/C6748 LCDK hardware and software kit providing a comprehensive introduction to real-time DSP with an emphasis on how to incorporate these topics into an academic course.

The OMAP-L138/C6748 LCDK is a low-cost development system utilizing TI's dual-core, ARM + DSP OMAP-L138 processor. The TI University Program recommends this as one of the DSP development systems that will be a successor to the C6713 Floating Point DSP Starter Kit with increased performance and additional teaching options. Participants of the workshop will perform hands-on lab exercises concentrating on programming the C6748 DSP core, WinDSK and Code Composer Studio.

Participants must bring a computer capable of running Code Composer Studio (shared workstations will also available) and will leave the workshop with a fully functional real-time DSP development system.

During the workshop, the opportunity to discuss the implementation of hands-on DSP teaching will be led by the two experienced and dynamic academic authors/ instructors who have taught many educator to educator based IEEE and ASEE workshops on this topic.

Topics will include:

Code Composer Studio (CCS) installation verification
RT-DSP introduction and reference text discussion
OMAP-L138/LCDK out of box experienced
winDSK8 installation and verification and examples
Creating a project … talk through
FIR filter and Signal Generation projects
Creating a project … sinusoidal signal generation
Advanced topics discussion

Hands-on DSP teaching using the OMAP-L138 LCDK may be used to introduce students to important DSP concepts, real-time programming issues/techniques, use of Code Composer Studio, embedded system concepts, and to the architecture and capabilities of TI's OMAP-L138/C6748 DSP processor. The support, training, teaching materials and textbooks available for the platform make it ideal to update or add new courses in your curriculum

Eligibility and Registration

Space is limited so please register early. TI will work to accommodate registrants and preference is given to academic instructors. You will receive a return email of your registration status from TI.

Attendees for the full workshop will receive the LCDK board, full version of Code Composer Studio Software, as well as copies of the teaching materials.
