C2000 Microcontroller Workshop - Architecture Overview 1 - 1
Architecture Overview
Introduction
This architectural overview introduces the basic architecture of the C2000™ Piccolo™ series of
microcontrollers from Texas Instruments. The Piccolo™ series adds a new level of general
purpose processing ability unseen in any previous DSP/MCU chips. The C2000™ is ideal for
applications combining digital signal processing, microcontroller processing, efficient C code
execution, and operating system tasks.
Unless otherwise noted, the terms C28x, F28x and F2806x refer to TMS320F2806x devices
throughout the remainder of these notes. For specific details and differences please refer to the
device data sheet and user’s guide.
Module Objectives
When this module is complete, you should have a basic understanding of the F28x architecture
and how all of its components work together to create a high-end, uniprocessor control system.
Module Objectives
Review the F28x block diagram and
device features
Describe the F28x bus structure and
memory map
Identify the various memory blocks on
the F28x
Identify the peripherals available on
the F28x
