Review

"...intended...for senior undergraduate and first-year graduate students in electrical and computer engineering and as a tutorial for the practicing engineer." (IEEE Signal Processing Magazine, Vol. 19, No. 4, July 2002)

From the Back Cover

The up-to-date, comprehensive volume on digital methods for waveform generation, digital filters, and digital signal processing tools and techniques

DSP Applications Using C and the TMS320C6x DSK provides a hands-on learning approach to digital signal processing (DSP) that uses real-time implementation of experiments and projects. Chapters begin with a theoretical discussion, followed by examples that present the necessary background to perform the concluding experiments. A total of seventy-six solved-programming examples are included, most of which are done in C/C++ (C) code with a few in assembly and linear assembly code.

The tools used in this book, the Code Composer Studio (CCS) and the TMS320C6711 DSP Starter Kit (DSK), are introduced in the first chapter. Examples are given here that illustrate the capabilities of the CCS for debugging as well as plotting in time and frequency domains. The CCS and DSK are used throughout the book while working with covered material such as:
* Input and output (I/O) with the codec on the DSK board and alternative I/O with a stereo audio codec that interfaces with the DSK
* The architecture and instructions available for the TMS320C6x processor
* The z-transform and finite impulse response (FIR) filters and the effect of window functions on these filters
* Infinite impulse response (IIR) filters
* The fast Fourier transform (FFT)
* The adaptive filter
* Techniques for code optimization

Complete with ample DSP applications and projects, a related Web site, and a CD-ROM that contains all the programs discussed in the book, DSP Applications Using C and the TMS320C6x DSK is invaluable to senior and graduate students in electrical and computer engineering, as well as professional engineers and anyone conducting in-house tutorials or seminars on DSP.

5.0 out of 5 stars Comments by author, July 14, 2003

This review is from: DSP Applications Using C and the TMS320C6x DSK (Hardcover)

I am the author of this book and wanted to respond to the comments by the reader from NH. This book is not about the C6x DSK. Rather, as the title implies, it is on "DSP Applications". The book is "using C and the TMS320C6x DSK" to discuss various applications of DSP, using dozens of illustrative examples with the C6x DSK. Furthermore, the book is not meant to be primarily on the theoretical aspects of DSP. There are many fine texts on theoretical DSP. Again, as stated in the title, the intent of the book is to emphasize the applications of DSP using the C6x DSK as a medium to illustrate. I hope this helps any future readers considering my book.

5.0 out of 5 stars A good applications book, May 1, 2004

By 

Shawn (lakeside, ca United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: DSP Applications Using C and the TMS320C6x DSK (Hardcover)

As an engineer with digital design experience but little DSP application experience, I found this book to be very helpful in understanding and applying everyday DSP algorithms. The book is basically a digest containing many C coded examples of realtime DSP designs including filters, tone generators, FFTs and other common DSP routines. They are easy to implement (all scipts are included on the accompanied CD) and are also fun to play with.
Assuming you have the TMS320C6711 DSK with code composer studio(I got mine on ebay for $100), you will be realizing the designs within minutes after first opening the text.
This book is not a first course in DSP. It helps to know a little about the theory (signals and systems and/or a dsp course) before diving into this text.
In conclusion, if you know a little about DSP but have no experience in applying it, I highly recommend this text.

5.0 out of 5 stars The point of view of a DSP Lab instructor, November 12, 2002

By 

Gustavo Acosta (Medellin Colombia) - See all my reviews

This review is from: DSP Applications Using C and the TMS320C6x DSK (Hardcover)

A very good book, easy to read and directed towards DSP Lab work
it allows you to advances quickly in know how relative to C6000 architecture and TI DSP applications . It is a DSP technology tour that together with well designed experiments give students a high level of understanding in potential applictions in related aeas( Bioengineering, Telecommunications etc.).
I strongly recommend this book for professionals and students that begin to study DSP technology.
