Overview: The HEPC4 is a full-length PCI board for PC-hosted TMS320C4x DSP systems. It contains four TIM-40 slots, supporting a variety of plug-in TIM-40 modules from Traquair. It also has an onboard JTAG controller. The TIM-40 slots are connected in a double Comport pipeline, with the 12 additional Comports available for external connection to other motherboards. A pair of Comports can be connected to the PCI interface for host communication. Optional TIM-40 processing modules are available from Traquair, with up to two TMS320C40 or four TMS320C44 processors on each module (up to 16 C4x DSPs per HEPC4). These modules can include onboard zero-wait-state SRAM, EDRAM, or DRAM. Traquair also has many application-specific TIM-40 modules for image processing, data acquisition, remote communications, data storage, custom hardware and third-party IndustryPacks. Software support is handled transparently through an API, providing a consistent PC programming environment. Many software tools are available for developing and running user applications, including the TI Compiler/Assembler/Linker, Hunt Engineering Server/Loader, 3L Parallel C, Sinectonalysis hand-optimized function libraries, and GO DSP Code Composer. Traquair also offers the HEPC3, which is a half-length PCI board with one TIM-40 slot. See our website for more details: http://www.traquair.com
