Description

The 6416 DSP Starter Kit (DSK) is an all-in-one evaluation
platform for the TMS320C6416T Digital Signal Processor
from Texas Instruments. It includes a target board that
can be used as a reference design for interfacing the DSP
to common devices such as SDRAM, Flash and a codec
as well as a special introductory version of TI's flagship
Code Composer Studio development tools. An on-board
JTAG emulator allows debug from Code Composer Studio
through your PC's USB port.

This kit contains everything you need to get started with TI
DSPs. It can also be used with the full version of Code
Composer Studio and an external JTAG emulator.

Install DSK Content from the CD-ROM

Before you install the DSK software, please make sure
you are using Administrator privileges and any virus

checking software is turned off. The DSK board should
not be plugged in at this point.

1. Insert the Code Composer Studio installation CD into
the CD-ROM Drive. An install menu (see below)
should appear. If it does not, manually run
Launch.exe from the CD-ROM. Select the Install
Products option from the menu.

2. Install any components you need. To debug with the
DSK you must have 1) a copy of Code Composer
Studio, 2) the target content package for your board
and 3) a copy of the FlashBurn plug-in.

Users of the full Code Composer Studio package can
skip the DSK Code Composer installation and simply
install the target content packages.

3. The installation procedure will create two icons on
your desktop:

6416 DSK CCStudio 3
6416 DSK Diagnostics

Connect the DSK to Your PC

1. Connect the supplied USB cable to your PC or laptop.
We recommend that anyone making hardware
modifications connect through a USB hub for safety.

2. If you plan to connect a microphone, speaker, or
expansion card these must be plugged in properly
before you connect power to the DSK board.

3. Connect the included 5V power adapter brick to your
AC power source using the AC power cord.

4. Apply power to the DSK by connecting the power
brick to the 5V input on the DSK.

5. When power is applied to the board the Power On
Self Test (POST) will run. LEDs 0-3 will flash. When
the POST is complete all LEDs blink on and off then
stay on. At this point your DSK is functional and you
can now finish the USB driver install.

6. Make sure your DSK CD-ROM is installed in your CD­ROM drive. Now connect the DSK to your PC using
the included USB. After few seconds Windows will
launch its "Add New Hardware Wizard" and prompt
for the location of the DSK drivers.

7. Follow the instructions on the screens and let
Windows find the USB driver files “sdusbemu.inf” and
“sdusbemu.sys” on the DSK CD-ROM. On XP
systems Windows will find the drivers automatically.
