Abstract

This paper presents a versatile and portable digital signal processing (DSP) platform that is highly suitable for learning embedded signal processing anywhere and anytime. This DSP platform is based on the Texas Instruments VC5505 eZDSP USB Stick. We outline some of the important features in this development tool, such as the internal fast Fourier transform (FFT) hardware accelerator and the programmable high-speed codec that can be used in learning real-time embedded signal processing. This portable and easy-to-use platform extends the real-time DSP activities beyond the traditional laboratory environment. We highlight some project examples that used this platform.
