Licence cuts the cost of TCP/IP stack
A new licensing model for the bf3Net TCP/IP protocol stack for the TMS320 DSP family significantly reduces the initial licence cost for developers and low-volume users.
A new licensing model for the bf3Net TCP/IP protocol stack for the Texas Instruments TMS320 DSP family significantly reduces the initial licence cost for developers and for users who only require a small number of distribution licences The bf3Net TCP/IP protocol stack was designed to make development of Internet-enabled DSP applications as fast as possible

PCMCIA JTAG emulator endorsed by TI DSP
Kane Computing claims that its Predator PCMCIA JTAG emulator was used by Texas Instruments to communicate with the first TMS320C6416 DSPs to come out of its fab, and it all worked first time.
Making extensive use of Texas Instruments eXpressDSP real-time software technology, the bf3Net TCP/IP protocol stack provides unmatched ease of integration.
The bf3Net integration tool automates the entire integration process through a graphical user interface.
The bf3Net run-time monitor provides visual feedback on the configuration and operation of the bf3Net TCP/IP protocol stack.
The fast integration and run-time monitoring with these state of the art tools can save weeks of development time, and get products to market faster whilst improving their robustness.
The basic developers' licence, which still includes 250 distribution or run-time licences, now costs around GBP 2600.
Kane Computing is also looking for a limited number of reference sites, who if selected would be supplied with bf3Net free of charge for an agreed period in return for feedback on the product.
A bf3Net starter kit is also available as a low-priced, entry-level evaluation and prototyping platform for Internet-enabled DSP applications.
They contain everything required to quickly start a bf3Net based project, including a limited version of the bf3Net TCP/IP protocol stack, the fully functional bf3Net development tools, a DSP starter kit for the selected target platform, and a communications interface.
An upgrade path to the full version of the bf3Net TCP/IP protocol stack is provided.
Prices of starter kits begin at around GBP 1200. Request a free brochure from Kane Computing ...
