A SYSTEM FOR CONVERTING HIGH-LEVEL COMPUTER LANGUAGES INTO SPECIFIC LOW-LEVEL LANGUAGES OF DIGITAL SIGNAL PROCESSORS

摘要

A computer-application multi converter system for converting computer applications high-level languages into DSP low-level commands is disclosed. The system includes a PC host and a compiler, loader, and pre-programmed command tables resident on the PC host. A DSP test-board is connected to the PC host bus. A debugger tool resides partly on PCT host memory and partly on DSP test board memory. The compiler reads high-level commands from a computer-application developer-file and locates them in the pre-programmed command tables within the PC memory to respectively select from the tables low-level commands analogue to the read high-level commands and relate to a specific type of target DSP. The analog low-level commands are transferred to DSP memory with the loader and with the PC host bus. The DSP test-board has a circuit board with contacts adapted for placing, energizing and communicating with at least one target DSP. There is also a memory for storing low-level commands received from the compiler through the loader and PC host bus. Memories provided for storing pre-programmed DSP functional-libraries and execution-control-program runs and debugs machine-applications based on the low-level commands on the target DSP while using the debugger tool and pre-preprogrammed routines from the DSP functional-libraries.
