Software development for the TSC2117 is supported through TI's comprehensive PurePath Studio
software development environment, a powerful, easy-to-use tool designed specifically to simplify software
development on Texas Instruments miniDSP audio platforms. The graphical development environment
consists of a library of common audio functions that can be dragged and dropped into an audio signal flow
and graphically connected together. The DSP code can then be assembled from the graphical signal flow
with the click of a mouse.
See the TSC2117 product folder on www.ti.com to learn more about PurePath Studio and the latest status
on available, ready-to-use DSP algorithms.
The TSC2117 device can be tuned to minimize power dissipation, to maximize performance, or to an
operating point between the two extremes to best fit the application. The choice of processing blocks,
PRB_P1 to PRB_P25 for stereo playback and PRB_R4 to PRB_R18 for mono recording, also influences
the power consumption. In fact, the numerous processing blocks have been implemented to offer a choice
among configurations having a different balance of power-optimization and signal-processing capabilities.
