Overview
The Texas Instruments PCI2040PGE is a PCI-DSP bridge controller designed to provide a seamless connection between the PCI bus and the Host Port Interface (HPI) of Texas Instruments' digital signal processors (DSPs), such as the TMS320C54X and C6X series. This component enables a glueless interface, simplifying the integration of DSPs into PCI-based systems. It supports compact PCI and offers various external interfaces, including a serial ROM interface, general-purpose input/output (GPIO) interface, and a 16-bit general-purpose bus.
