Documentation
A full set of schematics is included with the AMBE-3000™ HDK.
The AMBE-3000™ Vocoder Chip User’s Manual and a HDK Software Manual is included.
The User’s manual describes the hardware and software features of the AMBE-3000™ HDK. The
Software Manual provides a code description for the included HDK board source code.
Software
Software development for the MSP430F1471 can be done using the freely* available Code Composer
Essentials from Texas Instruments. Code Composer Essentials was chosen for this design because it
is an integrated development environment for the MSP430. Debug operations are more fluid than other
solutions not supported by TI. The software is supported by TI which is an advantage because they
manufacture the CPU.
*Code Composer Essentials Version 3 is free for images up to 16Kb. Larger images require a license.
The code for the AMBE-3000™ HDK is under 8Kb.
In addition to Code Composer Essentials, we will be using the MSP-FET430UIF emulator tool for
programming and debug operations. http://focus.ti.com/docs/toolsw/folders/print/msp-fet430uif.html
The AMBE-3000™ HDK is shipped with source code for the MSP430F1471 (also a compiled image),
source code for the PC executable (and the executable itself). The source code will allow the designers
to rapidly prototype their own AMBE-3000™ designs.
The TUSB3410 USB drivers are required and may be downloaded at ti.com.
