An integrated environment for rapid prototyping of DSP Algorithms using MATLAB and Texas instruments' TMS320C30

Abstract This paper presents the implementation of a rapid prototyping system, which involves the design of DSP algorithms using matlab Simulink blocksets, automated code generation, and downloading of executable code to the Texas Instruments’ Evaluation Module (TMS320C30-EVM). Various DSP algorithms were implemented and benchmarked in this system. It demonstrates that the matlab Simulink development system integrated with the TMS320C30-EVM provides a useful development tool for design verification of DSP algorithms. Performance results show that code developed using the rapid prototyping system is highly efficient and the development cycle time is greatly reduced, resulting in lower development cost.
