Question about DSPLIB (FFT)

Hi,

I am currently developing a program over a 6670 in which I need to calculate some FFTs. Does the DSPLIB use the FFTC co-processor when dealing with FFTs? What is faster/shows better performance, using the DSPLIB or the FFTC drivers?

Thank you.

  • Hi,

    DSPLIB kernels use CPU. FFTC is faster. It is designed for various OFDM based wireless standards such as WiMax, LTE. There are some limitations to FFT sizes. The input/output format is 16-bit I/Q. If your algorithm can use FFTC, you will get better performance. The details of FFTC is described in TI document SPRUGS2C. DSPLIB FFT kernels provide other input/output formats and/or sizes.

    regards,
