A DSP course for real-time systems design and implementation based on the TMS320C6211 DSK

In this paper a course on real-time DSP systems design and implementation is presented which makes use of the MATLAB and the Texas Instruments TMS320C621 I DSP Starter Kit (DSK). The students attending this course get familiarized with the operation of DSP algorithms on an embedded digital signal processor. This course emphasizes the issue of the transition from an advanced design and simulation environment, like MATLAB, to a DSP software environment, like Code Composer Studio IDE.
