Where can I get a free simulator for the TI TMS320C3x/4x?
A freely distributable instruction set architecture simulator is available for the TMS320C30 DSP as part of the Web-Enabled Simulation framework from UT Austin at http://signal.ece.utexas.edu/~arifler/wetics/. We have released all of the source code, as well as prebuilt C30 simulators for Windows ’95/NT and Solaris 2.5 architectures. The C30 simulator is bit-, cycle-, and instruction-accurate. The behavior of the C30 simulator has been validated against a C30 DSK board. The C30 simulator correctly reports interlocking and pipeline flushes, so it provides a convenient way to check C30 programs for these hidden delays. The C30 simulator is based on the C30 DSK tools by Keith Larson at Texas Instruments. [Brian Evans, bevans@ece.utexas.edu] Herman Ten Brugge (haj.ten.brugge@net.hcc.nl) has also written a GNU debugger (GDB) based simulator for the TMS320C30 and TMS320C40, available via anonymous FTP at http://www.elec.canterbury.ac.nz/c4x. This is freely redistributable under the terms of
