So I have been working as an engineering tech for the past 5 years and am working on finishing up my EE degree. I have to do a project this semester in one of my classes and figured I would give myself an intro to DSP. I have a decent amount of experience programming PIC microcontrollers in both assembly and C, but have never touched a DSP. What I would like to do is simply digitize a pulsed signal (using the DSP), send it over an ethernet cable, and reconstruct it using another DSP on the other end of the cable to be monitored with a scope. I realize it sounds like kind of a worthless task, but I do have an application in mind for it.
Anyways, I am hoping to put together a simple board (two of them actually, one for each end of the cable) that will configure itself as either an input module or an output module depending on a jumper setting on power up. I was hoping to get some input as to what would be a good DSP for a beginner to start with as well as any good tutorials on whatever IDE I would be using to program it? Any other advice would be appreciated as well.
Thanks in advance...
