If you ever developed a motor control system or appli-
cation, you probably dealt with isolation protection.
Hopefully isolation was included as part of the design
requirements and not a result of equipment damage, which
typically occurs when you introduce test devices (i.e. PC,
JTAG emulator) into the high voltage environment. If you
are new to motor control, you should know that regardless
of the motor type (AC induction, brushed DC, brushless
DC, stepper, etc.), these systems can use upwards of 350v
and quickly damage your test equipment if not isolated
properly. WiFi can provide isolation, both electrically and
physically.
What is Isolation?
Isolation is a technique of separating two components of a
device electrically and physically. Physical isolation is typ-
ically implemented for safety reasons. Electrical Isolation,
and the primary focus of this article, refers to the elimi-
nation of ground paths between two electrical devices.
In motor control applications, providing electrical isola-
tion can prevent ground loops between the motor control
system power rail(s) and the debug equipment. Ground
loops are the focus of the next section (see figure 1).
Ground Loops
Ground loops are the most common source of noise in a
digital system as well as the most common cause of dam-
aged test equipment. Ground loops occur when two devices
are connected at different ground potentials.
When this happens, the ground potential will cause cur-
rent to flow between the two devices. In audio devices,
such as a sound system for example, you may have heard a
hum coming out of the speakers. In video, this can present

itself as bars, bands visible at different brightness. In an
electrical environment this can occur by simply by having
two devices plugged into a different wall outlet and
attached via cable.
In a typical motor control application, motors will be
powered by 220 VAC and operate between 350 and 400
VDC. This [high] voltage bus can also reside on the nega-
tive power rail, so preventing ground loops and a path to
earth ground is extremely important. A ground loop in
this environment will trigger unwanted voltage to flow
to and through connected test equipment (computer,
emulator, scope, meter, etc.). The act of attaching this test
equipment is usually the culprit in providing the path to
earth ground and the reason why damage occurs to your
emulator and computer.
Isolation Solution Comparisons
There are various isolation options, including galvanic
implementations (optical, magnetic, capacitive, etc.).
For optical, it is well established and cost effective but
lacks high-speed performance, is power hungry and will
degrade over time.
There is wide acceptance in the industry for magnetic
(inductive) solutions and they use lower power compared
to optical, however they have low tolerance for electro-
magnetic noise and offer no electro-static discharge (ESD)
protection.
Capacitive solutions have low voltage requirements and
are not susceptible to noise but they do not offer protec-
tion in high power applications.
No single approach suits all applications as each solution
offers pros and cons. One way or another, you need to
make a trade off in performance, power, or cost.
Wireless Debug Solution
A wireless Ethernet implementation (IEEE 802.11) can
reduce or eliminate isolation trade-offs. By separating
the physical connection of the debug station (i.e. PC) from
the emulator, you can maintain performance and remove
ground loops in harsh environments (see figure 2). This
is based on the fact that the emulator resides in the same
power domain as the motor control application hardware
and motors.
Wireless Ethernet, with the various interface speeds, is
a proven transport under noisy conditions. It does not
sacrifice performance and it will allow the developer to
be positioned at a safe distance. Please see the Blackhawk
USB510W data sheet in this guide for more information.

SPECIAL FEATURE
While the role of general-purpose DSPs may be declining,
DSP cores are showing up in more applications than ever in
systems-on-chips (SoCs) and multicore devices. In a report
published last year, researchers at Electronics. CA Publications
expected DSP revenue to grow by 12 to 13 percent annually
through 2011, with most revenue from the communications
market but with the fastest growth coming in the consumer
electronics market. Todays high-performance devices present
new opportunities for applications from smartphones to med-
ical and beyond as well as new design challenges. Richard
White, managing director of Kane Computing Ltd (KCL) and
Tom Hill, senior marketing manager for DSP at Xilinx, discuss
some of these trends in our virtual roundtable.
EE Catalog: As applications
become more specialized, what
roles do general-purpose DSPs
play?
Richard
White, Kane
Computing:
General-
purpose DSPs
continue to play
a role in signal applications
where cost and volume are not
the prime requirements. Over
a number of years, developers
have become familiar with the
development tools and envi-
ronments and can thus modify
or create new products easily
and quickly using general-purpose DSPs.
Tom Hill, Xilinx: Te overall industry trend
has been to oer fewer standalone DSPs but
rather to oer devices that combine DSP cores
with CPUs and dedicated hardware accelerators
in the form of an ASSP. General-purpose DSPs
are more ecient than CPUs while using a soft-
ware design methodology. Tey are well-suited for a variety
of complex signal or video-processing applications that do
not require the additional performance that can be achieved
through custom hardware. FPGAs are often used as co-pro-
cessors to DSPs to provide custom interfaces or to accelerate
processing for a certain class of applications.
EE Catalog: How is the advent of sensor technology aecting
the role of DSPs?
White, Kane Computing: Sensor technology is developing
fast to make interfaces and transfer of data to related proces-
sors easier and in some cases are becoming small enough to be
integrated into the processing chip to help create the newer
SoC products.
Hill, Xilinx: Analog interfaces continue to advance in terms
of system performance and bandwidth. Wireless and defense
applications often use very high sampling rates to improve
the signal-to-noise ratios and improve the performance of
their systems, while applications such as medical use large
arrays of sensors to construct
accurate medical images. Both
these trends drive the use
of FPGAs to implement the
high performance and high
bandwidth analog interfaces
combined with digital ltering
to perform up/down conver-
sion, anti-aliasing and pulse
shaping.
EE Catalog: What major
challenges are developers con-
fronting with todays DSP and
ARM core systems-on-chips?
White, Kane Computing: Te
major challenge today using mul-
ticore DSP/ARM processor-based
systems is to nd engineers/programmers who are familiar with
and understand both ARM and DSP technology and programming
to enable them to make the best use of both types of processor.
Hill, Xilinx: Tere are two main challenges aecting these
developers performance and ease of use. ARM and DSP
processors are highly constrained in cost, size and power. You
cannot scale the performance of the processor to match your
application requirements, but must instead scale your applica-
tion to match your processor performance. ASSPs address this
issue by including highly specialized accelerator blocks that can
be called from the host processors, but this specialization may
not be right for your application. FPGAs can be used as a copro-
cessor to scale the performance and extend the use of the ARM
processor or DSP for high-performance applications not served
by these specialized ASSPs.

EE Catalog: What are some of the most exciting new trends in
tools for DSP-based designs?
White, Kane Computing: Eclipse-based integrated development
environments with optimising C/C++ compilers, source and
assembly-level debuggers are helping developers to develop with
the more complicated processing chips. Also, the ability of emu-
lators and development software tools to support, for example,
MIPI System Trace and Linux host systems, is helping developers
to work more easily with the latest high-performance processors.
Hill, Xilinx: Te most exciting trend is the emergence of viable
high-level design ows capable of targeting both hardware and
software from a common modeling language such as C/C++/
SystemC or MATLAB and Simulink. BDTI in 2009 published
an analysis of the viability of several high-level design tools for
targeting Xilinx FPGAs with promising results. As DSP and video
applications continue to migrate towards hardware platforms
that combine processors with FPGAs, these high-level design
ows will enable the same developer to partition an algorithm
between software running on the processor and accelerator
blocks running on programmable logic such as a Xilinx FPGA.
EE Catalog: What new DSP market opportunities are you
most excited about?
White, Kane Computing: Te most exciting technology
innovations that will help create low-cost, high-performance
computation platforms for medical and nancial needs is the
development of multicore processors.
Hill, Xilinx: While Xilinx FPGAs continue to be used extensively
in performance-hungry DSP and video applications including
wireless, A&D and medical, embedded vision is an area Xilinx
sees as a great opportunity for growth. Applications that extract
meaning from a real-time video source require high levels of
performance and vary signicantly algorithmically from one
application to the next, making them well-suited for custom video
accelerators implemented on a programmable device such as a
Xilinx FGPA and the new Zynq Extensible Processing Platform.
With the move to 28nm, Xilinx devices improve in cost, power
and performance and design methodologies expand to address
the needs of software developers, Xilinx expect to address a host
of new applications in consumer, industrial and medical markets.

SPECIAL FEATURE
Moving to Multicore
Multi-chip, multi-processing, multi-execution path tech-
nologies have been available for decades and have been used
to solve complex problems and improve performance. Since
single-core technology could address the vast majority of
compute needs with constantly increasing performance,
the tools and buzz was centered on single-core processors.
The computer world is changing as should be the case. Three
factors continue to be the key drivers:
1. Power: Increasing the MHz for a single core is approaching
the physical limits. Whether the product is battery-operated
or tethered by a power cord, developers are seeking to
improve the performance/watt ratio.
2. Performance: Application features and functionality will
continue to expand, which fuels increasing compute perfor-
mance.
3. Consolidation: Te progression of more capabilities on a
single chip. Applications currently running on multiple pro-
cessors will move to multicore, and applications currently
running on multicore will move to denser multicore chips.
The programming model chosen for multicore applications
must have the flexibility to address all three factors. While
addressing power has been the focus of many single-core
applications moving to multicore, the discussion presented
addresses the latter two factors consolidation and perfor-
mance.
The broad range of platform technologies offers the system
designer choices for the platform that would best fit the
applications requirements. A sample of the hardware
options include homogeneous and heterogeneous multi-
core processors, processors with accelerator integration as
well as processors with optimized mechanisms for inter-
processor (IPC)/core communications (transports). The
software paradigms executing on multicore processors
also have variants like symmetric multiprocessing(SMP),
asymmetric multiprocessing(AMP), CPU affinity and virtu-
alization, plus the combinations and permutations of the
models indicated.
Programming Model
The programming model used in any multicore software
paradigm needs to be consistent, have the flexibility to
scale and enable optimizations across various hardware
and software multicore and multi-processor platforms
which are available today and are being planned.
The Multicore Association (MCA) (see http://www.multi-
core-association.org) communications API (MCAPI) (see
http://www.multicore-association.org/workgroup/mcapi.
php) and TI DSPs are used to demonstrate a programming
model for applications consolidating to denser processors
and then looking for better ways to execute the applica-
tion in a multicore environment.
MCAPI has a concept called node which is defined as a
logical abstraction that can be mapped to many entities
such as process, thread, hardware accelerator or a pro-
cessor core. For this example, a node will be the entire
application that executes on a single DSP.
The application is encapsulated with MCAPI calls and we
assume that the IPC transports are available.
Now that our application is set up for MCAPI as encapsu-
lated modules, the first pass on testing could be performed
using any of the following environments:
1. Windows provided that non-Windows calls are handled
such as an OS simulator on Windows
2. Hardware simulator where communications links are simu-
lated
3. Existing single-core hardware
4. Multicore hardware
Initial testing on target hardware could be challenging
because of the number of variables introduced and this
subject better handled by the debug experts. A simulated

Simplifying Multicore Migration

SPECIAL FEATURE
environment provides more control. However, eventually,
the application will be moved to the target platform.
Applying the Programming Model
Lets look at moving a single multi-processor application to a
multicore processor using Texas Instruments (TI) DSPs such
as the TMS320C6474 and then the TMS320C6678 DSP.
The existing application runs on six single DSP proces-
sors. The source code for each DSP is encapsulated using
MCAPI calls, resulting in the code for each DSP becoming
a MCAPI node. By using Poly-Platforms graphical menus
and wizards, the encapsulation is performed quickly and
completely through code insertion and code generation.
The MCAPI enabled application communicates with other
DSPs in the architecture which may be a single core DSP
and/or a multicore C6474. That is, the same application
source code as node(s) may be run as:
1. A single-core DSP communicating to other single-core DSPs
2. A multicore DSP communicating to cores on the same chip
3. A single-core DSP communicating to cores on a multicore
DSP processor
4. A multicore DSP communicating to local cores or DSPs on a
dierent multicore processor
EECatalog
SPECIAL FEATURE
By extension, moving to denser processors, that is, more
cores on a chip, the MCAPI-enabled application source
code can move without source code change.
In the previous example, note that the application had six
nodes that map one-to-one in a dual C6474 configuration.
When moving to the C6678, which has eight cores, the
designer/architect has two extra cores. The additional two
cores could be used as backup or to expand functionality
or to improve the overall system performance. For this
system, the two cores will be used to improve performance.
Optimizing the Application for Multicore
The MCAPI-enabled application nodes provide flexibility in
deploying the nodes throughout the system. Nodes can be
grouped onto cores for systems with a memory-protected
operating environment and/or replicated to improve
systems performance. By grouping the nodes, the system
architect may be able to balance the operational load by
having nodes with lesser resource needs share a resource.
Should a node need substantially more resources, the node
could be assigned to a resource and replicated, which would
allow more data sets to be processed in parallel.
To quickly try alternate node mappings to cores, the
designer could use Poly-Platforms graphical user interface
to reconfigure the topology, build and run the new topology
using the same application source code. The communica-
tions infrastructure is quickly re-modeled and code is
generated for the new topology.
The following diagram shows an application with four
nodes that are mapped to three configurations. In the top
configuration, all nodes operate on a single core. In the dual-
core architecture, the nodes have different allocations. The
middle mapping shows an optimized configuration where
the resource load for the first two nodes is approximately
the same as the latter two nodes. Should the architect find
that the nodes have very different resource loads, the lower
configuration may be the best fit for the application. It is
important to note that the nodes are redeployed using the
same application source code.
Returning to the application running on TI DSPs, the
additional two cores could be used by node(s) that are more
resource intensive. Suppose that N2 is substantially more
resource intensive. Then, the architect may replicate N2
and deploy N2 on the seventh and eighth DSP, which should
yield an improved system performance. The new configura-
tion is seen in the following diagram.
EECatalog
SPECIAL FEATURE
Alternatively, the additional core could be used to improve
a single nodes performance. As the developer learns more
about the applications behavior, a resource-intensive seg-
ment of a node may be identified. The resource-intensive
segment may be separated from the original node, encap-
sulate as described earlier and made into a new node. This
new node could be move to the additional core(s) where an
improvement in performance could be realized.
Te approach of moving the application to a multicore platform
and then identifying areas for performance improvements
could be called divide and conquer a common approach to
engineering problems. With the divide-and-conquer approach,
moving to multicore becomes manageable because the devel-
opers understand the application partitioning. Debugging and
further optimizations are more readily managed too.
Programming Model for Today and for
the Next Generation
Multicore platforms are being used and we know more
applications will be moving to multicore platforms. Most
applications have been written as serial tasks or processes
which should be well-defined execution blocks. Architects
can employ the programming model with MCAPI described
in this paper to move their application to multicore plat-
forms with minimal effort.
Also, the MCAPI-enabled application has the benefit to
quickly move to the next-generation multicore platform.
For this discussion, the nodes were deployed to homoge-
neous cores. The programming model readily extends to
heterogeneous cores, processor platforms and operating
system. Thus, a node could be allocated to a core that would
better fit the nodes workload. As an example, an application
could have nodes running on a server platform communi-
cating with nodes running on embedded processors.
Economic benets for the manufacturer are that the same
application source code could be used across a product line
where the underlying platform diers by compute power. An
entry level product could have a single or fewer cores plat-
form. A mid-range product could have more compute power.
Te high-end product could have a heterogeneous platform.
Regardless of the products underlying platform, the same
application source would be used.
By adopting the programming model based on the MCA stan-
dards, the developer is able to start using multicore platforms
today. As more is learned about the applications operation, the
application can be modied to operate as multiple nodes with
a result of improved performance and improved scalability
for more core platforms and next-generation platforms. Te
programming model works for todays platform and prepares
the application for tomorrows platforms.

SPECIAL FEATURE
Both the sensor and wireless market continue to be strong
growth areas in the electronics industry, especially the mobile
segment. Tis growth is attributed in large measure to the
cost-eective availability of sensors based on microelectrome-
chanical systems (MEMS) and RF components.
Sensors and wireless technology always have been important
subsystems in the design of most mobile electronics. Today,
however, these technologies have become so pervasive as to
dene what is meant by a system.
Mobile electronicsfrom smartphones and tablets to smart
robotsare no longer distinguished by their processors or
RTOSes, but by the type of sensors and wireless features that
they support.
To get a sense of the changes taking way, consider the Segway.
When rst introduced, the Segway was a marvel of balance
and control. Digital signal processors, microcontrollers, sen-
sors and motors keep the personal transport upright during
motion. Gyroscopes and level-detecting sensorsmainly
accelerometersdetect shifts in passenger weight to both
control the speed and direction of the Segway.
Tanks to the area, power and
performance scaling achieved
by the semiconductor industry,
todays Segway has found many
new applications. Te smaller size
of high-performance and ultra-
low-power electronics and motors
has made Segway technology
ideal for the robotics industry.
So aordable have these con-
stituent subsystems become that
Segway-like robots are being
used in engineering course at
institutions like the University of
Illinois. Te Segbot is part of several inverted pendulum proj-
ects in the U of I Control Systems Labs. Like their big brothers,
these miniature robots use MEMS-based accelerometers and
rate gyroscopes to determine and maintain balance of the
device. Te sensors give the robot its amazing stability. As
with it big brethren, the Segbot relies on TI DSPs embedded
in a microcontroller to perform the necessary the necessary
positioning and balancing algorithms.
Te basic design of these
robotic systems is not new;
nor is the use of sensors to
control the motion or posi-
tion of the robots. What
are new are the tiny sizes,
ultra-low power and fast per-
formance of todays sensors
and associated signal condi-
tioning components.
Aside from new technology
in the control system, there
other new features that have
become synonymous with
mobile systems is the wireless connection. For example, the
Segbot is remotely controlled by a wireless watch namely,
the Texas Instruments eZ430-Chronos Watch Development
Tool. Te watch is basically a motion-sensitive microcontroller
development platform that uses a USB interface for coding and
debugging of the embedded target system. Once programmed,
a user moves his/her watch arm in various positions to con-
trol the Segbot. (Youtube video: Segbot controlled with TIs
Chronos watch at ESC2011)
Gesturing is a growing type of user interface, especially in
the consumer market. Many applications are being developed
for gesture-based interfaces that rely on camera and video
systems (See Qualcomm Recognizes Importance of Gesture
IP ). Tese applications, like the U of I Segbot, require high-
performance DSPs to process sensor and video stream data.
Unlike camera-based system, the Segbot requires only arm
motions to wirelessly control motions on the target platform.
Te user can literally control the direction of the robot with a
wave of their arm.
Yesterdays vernacular of hardware and software has given way
to a more functionally-based discussion. Systems designers
should take note that it will be dicult to develop future
electronics devices that dont contain an array of sensors and
wireless interfaces.

The MSP430 CPU core with sixteen 16-bit
registers, 27 core instructions and seven
addressing modes results in higher processing
efficiency and code density.
The MSP430 microcontroller is designed
to provide industry-leading ultra-low
power performance. A flexible clocking
system, multiple operating modes and
zero-power always-on brown-out reset
(BOR) are implemented to reduce power
consumption and dramatically extend
battery life. The MSP430 BOR function
is always active, even in all low-power
modes, to ensure the most reliable perfor-
mance possible. The MSP430 CPU archi-
tecture with 16 registers, 16-bit data and
16-/20-bit address buses minimizes
power consuming fetches to memory,
while a fast vectored-interrupt structure
reduces the need for wasteful CPU soft-
ware flag polling. Intelligent hardware
peripheral features were also designed to
allow tasks to be completed more effi-
ciently and independent of the CPU. Many
MSP430 customers have developed
battery-based products that will last for
over 10 years from the original battery.
Ultra-Low Power Checklist:
Multiple operating modes
0.1-A RAM retention
<1-A real-time clock mode
Down to 165 A/MIPS
Instant-on stable high-speed clock
1.8-V to 3.6-V operation
Zero-power BOR
<50-nA pin leakage
CPU that minimizes CPU cycles per task
Low-power peripheral options
Ultra-Low Power Performance
Low-frequency auxiliary clock for ultra-
low power standby mode
High-speed master clock for high-
performance processing
Stability over time and temperature
The MSP430 MCU clock system is
designed specifically for battery-powered
applications. Multiple oscillators are uti-
lized to support event-driven burst activity.
A low-frequency auxiliary clock (ACLK) is
driven directly from a common 32-kHz
watch crystal or the internal very-low-
power oscillator (VLO) with no additional
external components.The ACLK can be
used for a background real-time clock self
wake-up function. An integrated high-
speed digitally controlled oscillator (DCO)
can source the master clock (MCLK) used
by the CPU and sub-main clock (SMCLK)
used by the high-speed peripherals. By
design, the DCO is active and stable in
1 s (F2xx) or < 6 s (x1xx, x4xx, F5xx).
MSP430 device-based solutions efficiently
use 16-bit RISC CPU high performance
in very short burst intervals. This results
in very high performance and ultra-low
power consumption.

Supported TI Processors: C67x DSPs
The micro-line series of embedded DSP/FPGA boards
provides embedded systems developers with a tightly
integrated suite of programmable DSP, FPGA and I/O
resources in small, stand-alone capable board formats.
micro-line C6713Compact and C6713CPU DSP/FPGA
boards target high-performance oating-point DSP
applications using the powerful Texas Instruments
TMS320C6713 DSP.
The C6713Compact incorporates up to 128-MB SDRAM,
8-MB boot program ROM and an on-board, high-density
Xilinx Spartan-6 LX or Virtex-II FPGA (optionally pro-
grammable). The FPGA greatly expands processing and
hardware interfacing options. An on-board 400-Mbps
IEEE 1394a FireWire interface allows for communica-
tions with other embedded DSP resources, cameras,
sensors and PCs. Software APIs are available to utilize
the FireWire interface for general purposes, video frame
capture from cameras, and data storage to hard drives
and CompactFlash memory.

USB100v2 Model D Controller
The Blackhawk USB100v2 Model D is a very low-cost
controller for basic debugging of Texas Instruments
DSPs. Requiring no external power source, the USB100v2
Model D can support most of the basic features of higher
priced controllers and requires no additional drivers
when installed using CCS v4 or later.
Its also a TI XDS100v2-compatible controller fully sup-
ported under CCS v4 and future Texas Instruments
roadmap software development environments. The
USB100v2 Model D provides for faster code downloads
and assembly code stepping in that the USB100v2 Model
D uses a high-speed USB2.0 (480 Mb/s) port instead of
slower USB1.x (12 Mb/s) implementations.
Measuring just 2.75L x 0.80W x 0.65H (7.0cm x 2.0cm x
1.5cm) the Blackhawk USB100v2 Model D is the smallest
and most compact emulation product from a US manu-
facturer and is fully assembled and tested in the USA.
It will support 1.8-3.3v targets with native cTI compact
20-pin connections and also includes standard 14-pin
emulation adapter.
On selected models, the USB100v2 includes an adapter
for 14-pin targets and the USB100v2 Model D uses a
native 20-pin compact TI (cTI) JTAG header. This option
alone would cost over $100, but, is included at no addi-
tional charge.
Additionally, with an optional 20cTI to 20ARM connector
(available from Blackhawk), the USB100v2 Model D can
connect to 20-pin ARM Multi-Ice platforms.

Wireless XDS510 JTAG Emulator
The Blackhawk USB510W is the rst of its kind wireless JTAG
emulator for Texas Instruments DSPs. The USB510W has an
embedded 802.11 wireless transceiver and requires no hard
connection to a PC in order to debug using Code Composer
Studio. The major benet of this capability is to completely
isolate the PC from the target therefore eliminating the
chance for high-voltage damage of test components. This
protects the target board, PC and emulator from voltage
spikes and the absence of a common ground plane.
Conguration of the USB510W is accomplished via the
USB port in the same fashion as setting up a wireless
router. Or, the USB510W can be used wirelessly right out
of the box using the default settings suitable for most
wi networks. And of course, the USB510W can also be
used for debugging via the high-speed USB port.
The integrated wireless transceiver chip of the USB510W
is capable of supporting the following wireless protocols
and speeds:
802.11n: 6.5, 13, 19.5, 26, 39, 52, 58.5, & 65 Mbps
802.11ag: 6, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, 48, & 54 Mbps
802.11b: 1, 2, 5.5, & 11 Mbps
Blackhawk is a recognized leader in providing advanced

XDS560v2 System Trace
The Blackhawk XDS560v2 System Trace Emulator
(BH560v2) is based on the new Texas Instruments
XDS560v2 JTAG emulator reference design (XDS560v2).
The XDS560v2 design is the next-generation of the
high-performance XDS560-class technology rst made
available by Blackhawk with the USB560/LAN560 and
XDS560 Trace. The XDS560v2 design includes both
high-speed USB 2.0 and 10/100Mbit Ethernet host inter-
faces, multi-color state and activity LEDs and a exible
ribbon-ized coax JTAG cable. The XDS560v2 adds sup-
port for IEEE1149.7 and the system trace module (STM),
an inter-face on the TI heterogeneous multi-core (ARM
+ DSP) devices. If you are familiar with the Blackhawk
LAN560 product, you will already be familiar with this
new design.
The BH560v2 meets all of the TI XDS560v2 reference
design features and requirements and extends (improves)
capabilities by offering the following enhanced features:
POWER: This is the first and most important feature
enhancement. The BH560v2 has the option to be
powered from either the USB or POE (power over
Ethernet) connectors. Yes, the unit can be powered
solely from the USB; a great feature for you road
warriors. And for LAN operation, the BH560v2
offers an 802.11af POE connector that can be pow-
ered from a POE enabled switch or available POE
injector supply.
INDICATORS: We also added dedicated power and
USB activity LEDs, which are found on the current
Blackhawk USB560m and LAN560 models.
CONFIGURATION & TEST: The BH560v2 includes
a graphical user interface application that allows
users to find, update, configure and test Bh560v2
devices on the local area network (LAN). You can
even name the units, configure DHCP or fixed IP
and more.

Network Packet-based Intercom
/ IP Phone Software Subsystem
(ISS) for OMAP35x, and
DaVinci DM814x Devices
Supported TI Processors: OMAP35x, DM814x
Adaptive Digitals ISS software subsystem simplies
software design of an IP intercom or IP phone that runs
on both TIs ARM-based OMAP3530 processor, and
DaVinci DM814x devices. ISS implements complete
VoIP capability all the way from PCM to Packet and back.
This includes a process running on the ARM under Linux
as well as the necessary voice-processing running on the
DSP core.
A users application, co-resident on the ARM, can set up
and tear down VoIP channels via the ISS API. The ISS soft-
ware takes care of everything else.
The intercom system utilizes a TCP/IP client-server model
for status and control
The API functions running on the client-side of the inter-
face format messages that are sent over a connected
socket to the server. The server side of the interface
responds to these messages by calling the appropriate
G.PAK API functions, which in turn, control the DSP. Sub-
sequent status messages are returned to the client.
The server software runs as a Linux process on the SOCs
ARM processor core. In addition to supporting client mes-
sages, the server process is responsible for booting and
downloading the DSP portion of the SOC device, control-
ling the DSPs operation, and the timely transfer of RTP
packets between the network stack and the DSP software.
About G.PAK:
G.PAK is a voice-over-packet DSP software solution that
turns a DSP into an easily controlled voice-over-packet
engine. G.PAK integrates the building blocks required in
voice-over-packet systems into a turnkey solution.

VoIP Engine for Android/
ARM Driving Next Gen Mobile
IP Voice Applications
Supported TI Processors: OMAP35x, DM814x
Adaptive Digitals VoIP Engine for the Android/ARM is a
software package that handles the processing needed to
transform PCM samples to VoIP packets and VoIP packets
to PCM samples. In other words, it provides all the voice
processing necessary to VoIP-enable an Android/ARM
application.
The core of VoIP Engine is an Android native-layer library
that includes a complete suite of Adaptive Digitals eld-
proven telephony, VoIP, and voice quality enhancement
algorithms that enable developers to create toll-quality
next generation mobile applications for Android/ARM
users.
Todays mobile phone applications include an extraor-
dinary amount of functionality. In the Android space in
particular, writing software at the native layer is difcult
not only due to the complexity of Android but also due
to the anarchistic nature of open-source software in gen-
eral. The best-case scenario for a developer is therefore
to work at the Java layer. But for performance reasons,
much functionality needs to run at the native layer.
To make mobile phone application development manage-
able, developers have many development kits at their
ngertips to handle the native layer complexity. Adaptive
Digitals VoIP Engine brings the necessary VoIP function-
ality to the native layer. All the developer needs to do is
access the VoIP engine using a simple API, and package
the supplied VoIP Engine with the end user Android appli-
cation.
FEATURES & BENEFITS
VoIP Engine is supplied with a sample Java applica-
tion and a sample native application that in turn
interfaces with the VoIP Engine software.
The sample Java application interfaces with the sample
native application via Java Native Interface (JNI) to
setup an RTP/IP to RTP/IP VoIP connection.
Android developers can incorporate the Java sample
code into more complete VoIP-enabled Android
applications.
Included Software Voice Quality: AEC, AGC; Network
Optimization: Adaptive Jitter Buffer, PLC (G.711
Appendix 1); Compression: G.711 Appendix 2, G.722
(wideband), G.729 AB; Protocol: RTP, SRTP; Telephony:
Tone Generation.

FEATURES & BENEFITS
Bare die made available to customer specications,
and custom packages smaller than those offered by
the manufacturer.
Extensive array of post wafer fabrication processing
options insures that whether die is used in a wire bond
or ip chip application, product is inspected, tested
and packaged to customer requirements.
Chip Scale Packaging (CSP) is slightly larger than bare
die but offers a reduced size and weight alternative to
the standard packaged part, while maintaining the ease
of handling associated with the standard package part.
Wide range of alternate interconnect possibilities
utilizing smallest form factors available for next
generation builds or new product designs.
AVAILABILITY
Die and packaging solutions from Micross Components
are available now. For more information please refer to
our website at www.micross.com.
APPLICATION AREAS
Communications & Telecom, Industrial, Medical, Military,
Security, Video and Imaging, Wireless
DSP & Microcontroller Die
and Alternative Packaging
Supported TI Processors: DM644x, DM355, F283x, F281x,
C55x, C54x, 674x Low Power DSP, MSP430x1xx, MSP430x2xx,
MSP430x3xx, MSP430x4xx
Micross Components enables designers of military, med-
ical, communication, and industrial products to meet their
design goals by offering TIs DSP and MCu products in a
wide range of alternative interconnect solutions.
Die Availability
Micross Components provides the performance of TI prod-
ucts in the smallest form factors available. With our expertise
in handling bare die, and our extensive array of processing
options, we bridge the gap between TIs standard offerings
and the customers design goals. As the smallest form factor
available, die gives engineers the freedom to shrink existing
designs where package parts may currently be used, or
create new products with the smallest footprint possible.
Packaging Solutions
Micross Components packaging solutions are ideal when
OTS products cannot be used or when handling bare die
is not an option. When requirements call for a reduction
in size or weight, additional functionality, or custom fea-
tures, Micross can provide a solution.
Chip Scale Packaging (CSP) is a best t for those seeking
the smallest form factor with ease of handling. Because
our CSPs are designed in-house, features such as package
thickness, leaded or lead-free balls, and signal routing can
be customized. Micross Components currently offers the
following TI microcontrollers as standard products in CSP
(lead free is also available):
MSP430F149
MSP430F169
MSP430FG4618
MSP430FG4619
Multi-Chip Modules provide the advantage of increased
functionality and performance with overall space savings.
By integrating multiple die into a single package, Micross
Components can broaden design options and improve
management of product life-cycles. Micross has con-
tinued success in building two die stack modules using
the same footprint as the OTS monolithic package.
