S/W(including driver) designer's resource

Here is DVEVM and DVSDK overview.
Register your DM6437 EVM here by the S/N of your EVM. Then you will be authorized to download the latest DVSDK, PSP driver, DM643x Flash utilities and so on via same website.

For DM643x, TI has no CSL. You can use DM643x PSP driver. Download the latest PSP driver by your my.ti.com account.
Using a PSP driver in DSP/BIOS.
Network Developers Kit FAQ.
Request Evaluation Codec From TI.
Quickly Getting Started on TI Codec Engine.
C6000 cgtools and Optimization Techniques for the TI C6000 Compiler.
Request TI Video Vision Library.
C64x+ Image/Video Library.
C64x+ IQMath Library - A Virtual Floating Point Engine.
C64x+ Math Library.
How to operate EDMA3 of DM643x?
- Use TI EDMA3 LLD （low level driver）based on DSP/BIOS. Here is an example How to use the EDMA3 Driver on a TMS320DM643x Device.
- Programming EDMA without EDMA3LLD package.
- Use TI Framework Component（based on DSP/BIOS).
- Write own CSL by referring to EDMA3 CSL of C6455.

Remark

You can download TI S/W components DSP/BIOS, NDK, xDAIS and so on.
You can download DM643x DVSDK via your my.ti.com account.
