TMS320C6678: architecture

Xiaowen Chen

Part Number: TMS320C6678
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: 66AK2H14

TMS320C6678 is the highest performance floating point DSP that delivers 160 GFLOPS and 320 GMACs at 1.25 GHz. It ARM version (66AK2) is 66AK2H14.
These products have been on the market for several years, and their ISA, c66x DSP core, and KeyStone architecture have come out for about ten years.
I want to ask:
what's the next of C6000 DSP family?
Does TI plan or is TI developing new DSPs?

I've been using C6678, 66AK DSP products. In my systems, 4-8 DSPs are integrated into a PCB board.
More powerful single-chip DSP are warm welcome.
Does TI have some plans to develop more powerful DSPs?

Hi,

what's the next of C6000 DSP family?

This is something that cannot be discussed in public forums.

For your other questions, YES, TI is developing new and more powerful DSPs. I cannot give information when they will be available, as I don't have the roadmap of the design team.

Best Regards,
Yordan

Since TI is developing new DSPs,

How does it look like?

I do not ask the technical details of the new DSPs.

I only want to know some general answers such as :

Does it contain more DSP cores?

What is the peak performance?

We are always using TI DSP products. It is better for us to consider our future products if we can know how TI’s future DSPs looks like.

This is not something that will be shared in public forum. Also as I said I don't have the roadmap of the design team and have no information about this.

Hello Xiaowen,

Thank you very much for your interest on TI DSP. As Yordan indicated, we typically don't discuss roadmap info on the forum.

However, I will send you a direct email to continue the discussion. I will close this E2E thread here.

best regards,

David Zhou
