About This Manual
The TMS320C6000t DSK Board Support Library (BSL) is a set of application
programming interfaces (APIs) used to configure and control all on-board de-
vices. It is intended to make it easier for developers by eliminating much of the
tedious grunt-work usually needed to get algorithms up and running in a real
system.
Some of the advantages offered by the BSL include: device ease of use, a level
of compatibility between devices, shortened development time, portability,
some standardization, and hardware abstraction. A version of the BSL is avail-
able for the TMS320C6711t Developers Starter Kit (DSK).
This document is organized as follows:
- Introduction – a high level overview of the BSL
- Six BSL API module chapters
- Glossary
How to Use This Manual
The information in this document describes the contents of the
TMS320C6000t board support library (BSL) as follows:
- Chapter 1 provides an overview of the BSL, includes a table showing BSL
API module support for various C6000 devices, and lists the API modules.
- Each additional chapter discusses an individual BSL API module and pro-
vides:
J A description of the API module
J A table showing the APIs within the module and a page reference for
more specific information
J A module API Reference section in alphabetical order listing the BSL
API functions, enumerations, type definitions, structures, constants,
and global variables. Examples are given to show how these elements
are used.
