Overview: On-module memory consists of four separate banks of 32 bit wide SRAM, two on the TMS320C44's local bus and two on the global bus. Each bank can contain 128K x 32 or 512K x 32 zero wait state SRAM. Two variants of the MDC44S are therefore available, offering 512K x 32 zero wait state SRAM and 2048K x 32 zero wait state SRAM respectively. The module incorporates a 32-bit global memory expansion interface, through which it is possible to expand the memory and I/O capabilities off-module. A key feature of the module is its ability to run independently from a host by booting from the on-module ROM. The ROM also allows multi-processing operating systems to identify the module and its processing and/or memory capabilities. The module uses PEROM that provides facilities for programming from the TMS320C44 and which is ideal for storing system-configuration information. MDC44S can be used to form the heart of many systems built using LSI's carrier boards and I/O peripherals. Its memory capacity and speed make it suitable for most general-purpose and signal-processing tasks, while the diversity of TMS320C4x processing modules available from LSI makes it easy to plug together an optimised solution.
