This design is a universal register which can be used as a straightforward storage register, a bi-directional shift register, an up counter and a down counter.
This application note describes a method for developing block-oriented I/O device drivers
for applications that use the DSP/BIOS real-time kernel and includes examples that run
with Code Composer Studio v2.1 on the Texas Instruments TMS320C5402 and
TMS320C6711 DSP Starter Kits (DSKs). The device driver model presented here has
now been superceded with an updated version that supports not only block oriented
devices, but also devices such as UARTs, PCI and USB buses and Multimedia cards.
Documentation on the updated driver model as well as example drivers and source code
can be found in the Device Driver Developer s Kit product now available for download
from the TI Developer s Village.
