Introduction

B-2

B.1 Introduction

MSP50C604 is a spin off of the core processor MSP50C614. It is targeted as
a slave device. An external microprocessor is needed to interface with
MSP50C604 in slave mode. It can also be used a stand alone device if desired.

B.2 Features

-

30k word ROM customer program memory

-

8 MHz uDSP core

-

2 IO pins can be used as a comparator

-

4 pins for synthesizer syncronization

-

Host read or write interrupts core

-

PLL clock synthesizer

-

Resistor trimmed oscillator or 32 kHz crystal

-

640 word RAM

-

PDM DAC w/direct speaker drive (32 ohm)

-

1 bit comparator with edge-detection interrupt service
(IMPORTANT: Not currently supported)

-

Serial scan port for in-circuit emulation/monitor/test

-

Host Mode

J

14 general-purpose I/O pins

J

Can generate interrupts

-

Slave Mode

J

Works as microprocessor peripheral

J

STROBE, R/W lines for host read/write control

J

INPUTREADY, OUTPUTREADY for handshake

B.3 Architecture

The MSP50C604 will use the 6xx device family core, including breakpoint ca-
pability. It has identical instruction sets and uses the same development tool.
MSP50P614 (EPROM device) is used for code development and testing. The
architecture block diagram is shown in Figure B–1.
