Shared memory interface with the TMS320C54x DSP: This application note describes how to share memory (SRAM, FIFO, Dual-Port RAM) between a TMS320C54x DSP and host or other DSP. There are several ways to implement this task. The simplest way is to use a TMS320C54x with a Host Port Interface, if it is suitable for the design and the 2K-by-16 block of memory is large enough. This internal memory area is then available with no glue logic required.
