- I know nothing about DSP, but here is some information from the
- FAQ in comp.dsp:
-
-
-
-
- DSP56001: 20.5, 27, or 32 MHz fixed point DSP. 24 bit data bus, 16 bit
- address bus, 56 bit accumulators (2), host interface port, serial ports (2),
- general purpose I/O pins, timer. Harvard architecture. 512 words program
- RAM, 512 words data RAM on chip.
-
- DSP56000: Mask-programmed version of DSP56001.
-
-
-
- A free assembler for the Motorola DSP56000 exists, thanks to Quinn
- Jensen, jensenq@qcj.icon.com. The current version is 1.1, and
- it is posted to alt.sources, so look for it on mirrors of this
- newsgroup (like wuarchive.wustl.edu).
-
-
- There are two separate compiler sources for the Motorola DSP56000.
- One is the port of gcc 1.40 done by Andrew Sterian (ASTERIAN@BNR.CA)
- and the other is a port of gcc 1.37.1 done by Motorola and returned
- to the FSF. These may be portable to gcc2.x.x with some effort
- required. Neither of these comes with an assembler, but you can get
- a free DSP56k assembler elsewhere (see above). For more information
- on the Motorola compilers try contacting Jeff Enderwick (jeff@dsp.sps.mot.com).
-
- From Andrew Sterian, ASTERIAN@BNR.CA:
-
- The source code for the Moto compiler is available on nic.funet.fi.
- My own DSP56K port has bowed to Motorola's version. My DSP56156 port is
- still the only DSP56156 compiler around and I have just released an updated
- version of it. Both this compiler and the previous incarnation are archived
- on wuarchive.wustl.edu (in the usenet/alt.sources directory) amongst other
- places.
-
-
-
- Q3.2.3: Where can I get algorithms and libraries for Motorola DSPs?
- What is the number for the Motorola DSP BBS?
-
- Motorola runs "Dr. Bub", a bulletin board for DSPs containing source code
- for various libraries and algorithms. You can call it at (512) 891-3771
- (1200 bps 212A), (512) 891-3772 (V.22), and (512) 891-3773 (2400 bps V.22bis).
- Format is 7 data bits, even parity, 1 stop bit). Log in as "guest", terminal
- type of "dumb" if you have no screen emulation capabilities.
-
- Alternatively, Dr. BuB is mirrored on the following sites:
-
- calvin.stanford.edu (36.14.0.43) in /motorola
- bode.ee.ualberta.ca (129.128.16.96) in /pub/dos/motorola
- nic.funet.fi (128.214.6.100) in /pub/misc/motorola
- doc.ic.ac.uk (146.169.3.7) in
- /computing/systems/motorola/digital-signal-processing/dr.bub.sources
-
- Also try nic.funet.fi in /pub/ham/dsp for a lot of good stuff on
- communications uses, including some hardware.
