TMS320DM6467TCUTL1 Datasheet PDF - TI

The TMS320DM6467T (also referenced as DM6467T) leverages TI"s DaVinci™ technology to meet the networked media encode and decode application processing needs of next-generation embedded devices.

●The DM6467T enables OEMs and ODMs to quickly bring to market devices featuring robust operating systems support, rich user interfaces, high processing performance, and long battery life through the maximum flexibility of a fully integrated mixed processor solution.

●The dual-core architecture of the DM6467T provides benefits of both DSP and Reduced Instruction Set Computer (RISC) technologies, incorporating a high-performance TMS320C64x+ DSP core and an ARM926EJ-S core.

●The ARM926EJ-S is a 32-bit RISC processor core that performs 32-bit or 16-bit instructions and processes 32-bit, 16-bit, or 8-bit data. The core uses pipelining so that all parts of the processor and memory system can operate continuously.

●The ARM core incorporates:

●The TMS320C64x+™ DSPs are the highest-performance fixed-point DSP generation in the TMS320C6000™ DSP platform. It is based on an enhanced version of the second-generation high-performance, advanced very-long-instruction-word (VLIW) architecture developed by Texas Instruments (TI), making these DSP cores an excellent choice for digital media applications. The C64x is a code-compatible member of the C6000™ DSP platform. The TMS320C64x+ DSP is an enhancement of the C64x+ DSP with added functionality and an expanded instruction set.

●Any reference to the C64x DSP or C64x CPU also applies, unless otherwise noted, to the C64x+ DSP and C64x+ CPU, respectively.

●With performance of up to 8000 million instructions per second (MIPS) at a clock rate of 1 GHz, the C64x+ core offers solutions to high-performance DSP programming challenges. The DSP core possesses the operational flexibility of high-speed controllers and the numerical capability of array processors. The C64x+ DSP core processor has 64 general-purpose registers of 32-bit word length and eight highly independent functional units— two multipliers for a 32-bit result and six arithmetic logic units (ALUs). The eight functional units include instructions to accelerate the performance in video and imaging applications. The DSP core can produce four 16-bit multiply-accumulates (MACs) per cycle for a total of 4000 million MACs per second (MMACS), or eight 8-bit MACs per cycle for a total of 8000 MMACS. For more details on the C64x+ DSP, see the _TMS320C64x/C64x+ DSP CPU and Instruction Set Reference Guide_ (literature number SPRU732).

●The DM6467T also has application-specific hardware logic, on-chip memory, and additional on-chip peripherals similar to the other C6000 DSP platform devices. The DM6467T core uses a two-level cache-based architecture. The Level 1 program cache (L1P) is a 256K-bit direct mapped cache and the Level 1 data cache (L1D) is a 640K-bit 2-way set-associative cache. The Level 2 memory/cache (L2) consists of an 512K-bit memory space that is shared between program and data space. L2 memory can be configured as mapped memory, cache, or combinations of the two.

●The peripheral set includes: a configurable video port; a 10/100/1000 Mb/s Ethernet MAC (EMAC) with a Management Data Input/Output (MDIO) module; a 4-bit transfer/4-bit receive VLYNQ interface; an inter-integrated circuit (I2C) Bus interface; a multichannel audio serial port (McASP0) with 4 serializers; a secondary multichannel audio serial port (McASP1) with a single transmit serializer; 2 64-bit general-purpose timers each configurable as 2 independent 32-bit timers; 1 64-bit watchdog timer; a configurable 32-bit host port interface (HPI); up to 33-pins of general-purpose input/output (GPIO) with programmable interrupt/event generation modes, multiplexed with other peripherals; 3 UART/IrDA/CIR interfaces with modem interface signals on UART0; 2 pulse width modulator (PWM) peripherals; an ATA/ATAPI-6 interface; a 66-MHz peripheral component interface (PCI); and 2 external memory interfaces: an asynchronous external memory interface (EMIFA) for slower memories/peripherals, and a higher speed synchronous memory interface for DDR2.

●The Ethernet Media Access Controller (EMAC) provides an efficient interface between the DM6467T and the network. The DM6467T EMAC support both 10Base-T and 100Base-TX, or 10 Mbits/second (Mbps) and 100 Mbps in either half- or full-duplex mode; and 1000Base-TX (1 Gbps) in full-duplex mode with hardware flow control and quality of service (QOS) support.

●The Management Data Input/Output (MDIO) module continuously polls all 32 MDIO addresses in order to enumerate all PHY devices in the system. Once a PHY candidate has been selected by the ARM, the MDIO module transparently monitors its link state by reading the PHY status register. Link change events are stored in the MDIO module and can optionally interrupt the ARM, allowing the ARM to poll the link status of the device without continuously performing costly MDIO accesses.

●The PCI, HPI, I2C, SPI, USB2.0, and VLYNQ ports allow the DM6467T to easily control peripheral devices and/or communicate with host processors.

●The DM6467T also includes a High-Definition Video/Imaging Co-processor (HDVICP) and Video Data Conversion Engine (VDCE) to offload many video and imaging processing tasks from the DSP core, making more DSP MIPS available for common video and imaging algorithms. For more information on the HDVICP enhanced codecs, such as H.264 and MPEG4, please contact your nearest TI sales representative.

●The rich peripheral set provides the ability to control external peripheral devices and communicate with external processors. For details on each of the peripherals, see the related sections later in this document and the associated peripheral reference guides.

●The DM6467T has a complete set of development tools for both the ARM and DSP. These include C compilers, a DSP assembly optimizer to simplify programming and scheduling, and a Windows™ debugger interface for visibility into source code execution.
