Overview: The MDC44T provides two TMS320C44 DSPs that deliver unprecedented performance from a single-width TIM-40 module. It is ideally suited for use in applications requiring maximum processor density with fast local memory stores. One of the four 20M bytes/sec communication ports on each of the TMS320C44s are interconnected. This allows high-bandwidth communication between the two processors. The remaining three ports from each processor are routed off-module via the top and bottom connectors. Each of the processors has access to the local and global banks of memory which are either 128K x 32 words or 512K x 32 words depending on requirements. Optimum performance can therefore be achieved while access is provided to significant amounts of fast local memory for data and programs. As with other TMS320C4x modules from LSI, the MDC44T is able to run independently from the host by booting from on its on-module PEROM. The ROM also allows multiple-processing operating systems to identify the module and its functionality for dynamic-load sharing.
