TMS320C6203BZNZ173

Digital Signal Processor Dsp Overview

The TMS320C6203BZNZ173 is a fixed-point digital signal processor from the Texas Instruments TMS320C62x DSP generation. It features the VelociTI VLIW architecture with eight independent functional units, including load-store capabilities and 32 32-bit general-purpose registers. The device integrates 3 Mbit of internal program/cache memory and 4 Mbit of dual-access internal data memory organized into two 256 Kbyte blocks. It supports a 52 Mbyte addressable external memory space and includes four-channel DMA, three McBSPs, and SPI interfaces. The ZNZ suffix indicates a 173 MHz operating speed in a BGA package.

Digital Signal Processor Dsp Feature Summary

• VelociTI VLIW architecture with eight highly independent functional units
• 3 Mbit internal program/cache and 4 Mbit dual-access internal data memory
• Glueless interface to synchronous (SDRAM/SBSRAM) and asynchronous memories
• Four-channel DMA controller with auxiliary channel and flexible PLL clock generator

Digital Signal Processor Dsp Applications

• T1/E1 framing applications via direct McBSP interface
• MVIP and SCSA framer integration
• PCI bridge chip interfacing
• Synchronous FIFO and asynchronous peripheral connections

Digital Signal Processor Dsp Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'ZNZ' against official Texas Instruments documentation to confirm the 173 MHz speed grade and package type. Ensure compatibility with existing board layouts as this component is pin-compatible with the C6204 GLW BGA package. Cross-reference ordering information directly with TI or authorized distributors to avoid counterfeit components.

Digital Signal Processor Dsp Selection Notes

Select this model when an 8-unit VLIW DSP core is required with 173 MHz performance. It is suitable for designs needing glueless memory interfaces and multiple serial communication ports. Consider the C6204 if higher internal memory capacity is needed, as it shares pin compatibility but offers different memory configurations.

Digital Signal Processor Dsp Part Context

This device belongs to the TMS320C6000 DSP platform, specifically the C62x fixed-point generation. It utilizes the high-performance VelociTI very-long-instruction-word architecture. The C6203B variant is part of a family that includes pin-compatible parts like the C6202 and C6204, allowing for design flexibility within the same hardware footprint.

Digital Signal Processor Dsp Replacement Considerations

The C6204GLW BGA package is pin-compatible with the C6203B. Verify if the C6202 series variants meet the specific memory and speed requirements before substitution.
