Hi James,


Is your 32-bit fixed point requirement essential???
If 32bit float/16 bit fixed works for You, take a look at TI's TMS320VC33:

* 150 MHz internal clock / 150 MFLOPS / 75 MIPS
* 34K words(32 bit) on-chip SRAM
* 4Mx32bit  memory map
* Bootloader
* DMA
* very low power
* low cost (~US$20 small qtties.)
* package ideal for toasting in oven   8^)
* ...

The DSP Starter Kit ("DSK") I'm using costs around $100, comes with
assembler and debugger, and is based on the 'C31 (previous to the 'VC33).
Go to TI's page, section "Other DSP's".


Best Regards,

S.-

Subject: [PIC]Any good DSP with inexpensive developement tools around $200
or so?


| Hello,
|
| I have been looking at learning to use DSP, but it seems that most
companies
| want to charge an arm and leg just for an assembler or compiler and
| programmer.  Does anyone know of any companies that have DSP that also
have
| very inexpensive developement tools like Microchip does?  I looked at TI
but
| they want $600 for even their low end DSP.  I need to look into a DSP with
| 32bit fixed point unit.
|
| Any ideas is greately appreciated.
|
| Thanks,
|
| James
