Introduction to the Motorola DSP Developer's Kit
Note The Motorola DSP Developer's Kit 1.0 was introduced as a Web-downloadable product after the release of Release 11.1. The Motorola DSP Developer's Kit 1.1 adds matrix and frame support (see New Features). |
You can use the Motorola DSP Developer's Kit 1.0 to develop application software for Motorola DSPs in the MathWorks MATLAB and Simulink environments. The Motorola DSP Developer's Kit provides an object-oriented interface to program MEX-files or S-functions that call the appropriate Motorola Suite56 DSP Simulator.
With the Motorola DSP Developer's Kit, you can develop implementation solutions based on the Motorola Suite56 DSP families. You achieve this by implementing algorithms in Motorola DSP assembly language and running the generated object code directly from within MATLAB or Simulink, on the chosen Motorola Suite56 DSP simulator.
The Motorola DSP Developer's Kit also provides a toolbox (MATLAB MEX-files) and a blockset (Simulink blocks based on S-functions) of commonly used DSP functions. Substituting existing MATLAB functions with the equivalent (at a behavioral level) Motorola DSP functions, you can evaluate the Motorola Suite56 family of DSPs.
In some situations, you can use the toolbox and blockset functions of the Motorola DSP Developer's Kit unmodified as supplied. However, in the majority of cases, you will want to create your own functions either by modifying the supplied functions or by adding your own functions, basing your new functions on the supplied function templates.
For More Information
For a complete guide to this product, refer to the online "Motorola DSP Developer's Kit User's Guide," in particular, the Getting Started section.
Also, refer to the templates files as a guide to creating DSP MEX/SMEX functions for the Motorola DSP Developer's Kit. These files are located in the $MATLAB/toolbox/motdsp/motdspmex/templates
directory.
Type demos
to run some simple demonstrations of statistical and signal processing functions calculated by the Motorola Suite56 instruction set simulator.
