Introduction
The Motorola DSP Developer's Kit enables you to develop application software for Motorola DSPs in the MathWorks MATLAB and Simulink environments. It 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. To achieve this, the tool allows you to implement algorithms in Motorola DSP assembly language or C code and run the generated object code directly within MATLAB or Simulink on the chosen Motorola Suite56 DSP simulator.
The Motorola DSP Developer's Kit also provides toolboxes (MATLAB MEX -files) and blocksets (Simulink blocks based on S-functions) of commonly used DSP functions. Substituting existing MATLAB functions with the equivalent Motorola DSP functions at a behavioral level, you can evaluate the Motorola Suite56 family of DSPs.
In some situations, you use the toolbox and blockset functions of the Motorola DSP Developer's Kit unmodified as supplied. These provide you with a set of basic functions for performing standard DSP operations. You can verify your system design by substituting specific Motorola DSP blocks or functions in place of the current MATLAB versions.
However, in the majority of cases, you design your own functions by modifying those supplied, or simply creating your own, based on the templates provided. This tailors your functions to the specific requirements of your application and allows efficient development of DSP algorithms running seamlessly on Motorola DSP simulators.
