Emulators for C5000

The C5000 family of low-power DSPs is targeted at portable and battery powered applications. In order to keep driving down power consumption TI keeps driving down the internal and I/O voltages with each successive generation of silicon. With this in mind we would recommend purchasing a future proof emulator with low voltage support, e.g. the SPI525.

For users who need an external emulator, or need to connect to a notebook PC then low voltage portable solutions are also available in the shape of the SPI515 parallel port emulator.

Newer revisions of the VC55xx range of devices will also support high-speed RTDX, offering data exchange rates of 2Mbits/sec. If you are using one of these devices and high-speed data exchange is important to you then you should also consider one of the new XDS560 emulators.
