Overview:	The SPIRIT-32 AT/ISA is a high performance DSP board for a wide range of embedded applications in control, acoustics, telecommunication, and instrumentation. Off the main memory bus is a zero wait-state SRAM memory, Flash PROM, and an RS-232 interface. An MPSD emulator port and PEC (processor expansion connector) are also brought out from the main bus. The PEC features two timers, two interrupts, and two software controllable I/O flag lines. Unlike systems based on a dual-port host interface, the SPIRIT-32 allows full 16-bit access to SRAM memory via a set of registers in the I/O address space on the PC host. This allows the use of string I/O instructions which execute faster than DMA on most PC machines. RadiSys' run time library (RTL) provides a high level interface that eliminates the need for the user to directly deal with assembly programming for the hardware interface. The host has the capability to reset, interrupt, enable/disable, read status, and control SPIRIT-32 operations via a control register. Similarly, the SPIRIT-32 can interrupt the host via one of four interrupt levels. Various memory configurations are available. The SRAM is expandable to 2 MBytes of zero wait-state.
