SPRUG28 —TMS320DM357 DMSoC 64-Bit Timer User's Guide. Describes the operation of thesoftware-programmable 64-bit timer in the TMS320DM357 Digital Media System-on-Chip (DMSoC).Timer 0 and Timer 1 are used as general-purpose (GP) timers and can be programmed in 64-bitmode, dual 32-bit unchained mode, or dual 32-bit chained mode; Timer 2 is used only as awatchdog timer. The GP timer modes can be used to generate periodic interrupts or enhanceddirect memory access (EDMA) synchronization events. The watchdog timer mode is used toprovide a recovery mechanism for the device in the event of a fault condition, such as a non-exitingcode loop.
SPRUG29 —TMS320DM357 DMSoC Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) User's Guide. Describes theserial peripheral interface (SPI) in the TMS320DM357 Digital Media System-on-Chip (DMSoC). TheSPI is a high-speed synchronous serial input/output port that allows a serial bit stream ofprogrammed length (1 to 16 bits) to be shifted into and out of the device at a programmedbit-transfer rate. The SPI is normally used for communication between the DMSoC and externalperipherals. Typical applications include an interface to external I/O or peripheral expansion viadevices such as shift registers, display drivers, SPI EPROMs and analog-to-digital converters.
SPRUG30 —TMS320DM357 DMSoC Host Port Interface (HPI) Reference Guide. This documentdescribes the host port interface in the TMS320DM357 Digital Media System-on-Chip (DMSoC).The HPI provides a parallel port interface through which an external host processor can directlyaccess the TMS320DM357 DMSoC processor's resources (configuration and program/datamemories).
SPRUG31 —TMS320DM357 DMSoC General-Purpose Input/Output (GPIO) User's Guide. Describesthe general-purpose input/output (GPIO) peripheral in the TMS320DM357 Digital MediaSystem-on-Chip (DMSoC). The GPIO peripheral provides dedicated general-purpose pins that canbe configured as either inputs or outputs. When configured as an input, you can detect the state ofthe input by reading the state of an internal register. When configured as an output, you can writeto an internal register to control the state driven on the output pin.
SPRUG32 —TMS320DM357 DMSoC Multimedia Card (MMC)/Secure Digital (SD) Card ControllerUser's Guide. Describes the multimedia card (MMC)/secure digital (SD) card controller in theTMS320DM357 Digital Media System-on-Chip (DMSoC). The MMC/SD card is used in a number ofapplications to provide removable data storage. The MMC/SD controller provides an interface toexternal MMC and SD cards. The communication between the MMC/SD controller and MMC/SDcard(s) is performed by the MMC/SD protocol.
SPRUG33 —TMS320DM357 DMSoC Asynchronous External Memory Interface (EMIF) User'sGuide. Describes the asynchronous external memory interface (EMIF) in the TMS320DM357Digital Media System-on-Chip (DMSoC). The EMIF supports a glueless interface to a variety ofexternal devices.
SPRUG34 —TMS320DM357 DMSoC Enhanced Direct Memory Access (EDMA) Controller User'sGuide. Describes the operation of the enhanced direct memory access (EDMA3) controller in theTMS320DM357 Digital Media System-on-Chip (DMSoC). The EDMA3 controller’s primary purposeis to service user-programmed data transfers between two memory-mapped slave endpoints on theDMSoC.
SPRUG35 —TMS320DM357 DMSoC Audio Serial Port (ASP) User's Guide. Describes the operationof the audio serial port (ASP) audio interface in the TMS320DM357 Digital Media System-on-Chip(DMSoC). The primary audio modes that are supported by the ASP are the AC97 and IIS modes. Inaddition to the primary audio modes, the ASP supports general serial port receive and transmitoperation, but is not intended to be used as a high-speed interface.
SPRUG36 —TMS320DM357 DMSoC Ethernet Media Access Controller (EMAC)/Management DataInput/Output (MDIO) Module User's Guide. Discusses the ethernet media access controller(EMAC) and physical layer (PHY) device management data input/output (MDIO) module in theTMS320DM357 Digital Media System-on-Chip (DMSoC). The EMAC controls the flow of packetdata from the DMSoC to the PHY. The MDIO module controls PHY configuration and statusmonitoring.
