Fixed Point Digital Signal Processor (DSP) 167MHz 256-BGA (27x27)
Active

Overview

The TMS320C6211BZFN167 is a high-performance fixed-point Digital Signal Processor (DSP) based on the VelociTI Advanced VLIW architecture. Operating at 167MHz, it utilizes a 1.8V core and 3.3V I/O to deliver efficient computational power for real-time processing tasks. The device features 72kB of on-chip RAM and robust interface options including a Host Port Interface (HPI) and Multichannel Buffered Serial Ports (McBSP).

Why Choose This Part

The VLIW architecture allows for multiple instructions to be executed per clock cycle, maximizing throughput for parallelizable DSP algorithms. Its low 1.8V core voltage reduces power consumption during high-speed operations, while the 256-pin BGA package provides high I/O density for complex system integration.

Applications

Digital Filter Implementation
Executing complex FIR and IIR filters in real-time for signal conditioning and noise reduction.
Industrial Control Systems
Managing high-speed control loops and motor feedback processing using the 16-channel DMA and 32-bit timers.
Telecommunications Equipment
Handling multichannel voice and data streams through the integrated McBSP and HPI interfaces.
Image Processing
Performing fixed-point arithmetic for basic computer vision tasks and pattern recognition.
