Basic Operation Using DSP Processor

The theoretical aspects of DSP technology are not too difficult. We just have different algorithms for different operations. But, the real world doesn't work on just mathematics and algorithms. We need to have some physical hardware that will implement these operations. This is where the DSP processor comes in.
We used a custom board of the popular C2000 processor. The coding platform used was Code Composer Studio. Using the implementations of DSP algorithms in C language developed previously, the code was tweaked to work on-chip in embedded C. Basic operations were performed on the board such as addition and subtraction among others. We also implemented FFT algorithms. The difference in implementing on hardware is that we have to reference the registers too while writing the code while a simple C language implementation does not require this.
