Through our partnership with Blackhawk, Direct Insight offers a range of products which, in conjunction with TI Code Composer Studio development tools allow DSP developers to get the most from their TMS320 family devices.

XDS510 and XDS560 JTAG USB and PCI emulators: Blackhawk

Blackhawk is a leading provider of DSP hardware and software Development tools. The first to develop a USB to JTAG emulator for Texas Instruments XDS510 class devices - now the first to offer USB support for the new XDS560 debug standard which permits very high speed interfacing between debugger and target.

There are three JTAG emulators in the Blackhawk range. A low cost USB emulator, a PCI interface capable of supporting both XDS510 and XDS560 debug, and a high performance XDS560 unit featuring both USB and Ethernet connectivity.

POSIX compliant RTOS: Blackhawk

TALON is a suite of POSIX Compliant Real Time Operating Systems that are individually optimized for each TI DSP family. This eliminates the need for understanding the underlying DSP specifics and allows the developer to concentrate on application development, reducing risk, development cycle and time to market. TALON meets the demands of sophisticated embedded DSP applications providing predictable, deterministic and hard real time behaviour.
