    TMS320 DSP DESIGNER’S NOTEBOOK Accessing TMS320C54x Memory-Mapped Registers in C– C54XREGS.H APPLICATION BRIEF: SPRA260 Leor Brenman Digital Signal Processing Products Semiconductor Group Texas Instruments May 1994 IMPORTANT NOTICE Texas Instruments (TI) reserves the right to make changes to its products or to discontinue any semiconductor product or service without notice, and advises its customers to obtain the latest version of relevant information to verify, before placing orders, that the information being relied on is current. TI warrants performance of its semiconductor products and related software to the specifications applicable at the time of sale in accordance with TI’s standard warranty. Testing and other quality control techniques are utilized to the extent TI deems necessary to support this warranty. Specific testing of all parameters of each device is not necessarily performed, except those mandated by government requirements. Certain application using semiconductor products may involve potential risks of death, personal injury, or severe property or environmental damage (“Critical Applications”). TI SEMICONDUCTOR PRODUCTS ARE NOT DESIGNED, INTENDED, AUTHORIZED, OR WARRANTED TO BE SUITABLE FOR USE IN LIFE-SUPPORT APPLICATIONS, DEVICES OR SYSTEMS OR OTHER CRITICAL APPLICATIONS. Inclusion of TI products in such applications is understood to be fully at the risk of the customer. Use of TI products in such applications requires the written approval of an appropriate TI officer. Questions concerning potential risk applications should be directed to TI through a local SC sales office. In order to minimize risks associated with the customer’s applications, adequate design and operating safeguards should be provided by the customer to minimize inherent or procedural hazards.

  • II Representation of Characters, Integers and Fractions-Octal And
    UNIT – II Representation of Characters, Integers and Fractions-Octal and Hexadecimal number systems-Signed-Fixed and floating point number representations-BCD Code-Gray Code- ASCII Code. Representation of Characters, Integers and Fractions: Representation of Characters: Everything represented by a computer is represented by binary sequences. A common non-integer needed to be represented is characters. We use standard encodings (binary sequences) to represent characters. A standard code ASCII (American Standard for Computer Information Interchange) defines what character is represented by each sequence. Characters must somehow be represented in the computer using the 1's and 0's that the hardware works with. How they are represented is arbitrary, but to make sure that characters used on one computer are understood correctly by another, there are standards defined. The most common standard is called ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange). In ASCII, there are 128 characters to be represented, so each character is stored in one byte. Here is one representation of the ASCII character set We can divide the character set into different classes: Alphabetic characters including: o lower case letters - 'a'..'z' o upper case letters - 'A'..'Z' Digit characters - '0'..'9' Punctuation characters - '.',';',',', etc. White space characters - ' ','\n','\t', etc. 1 | II Unit – NME 1- Information Technology Special characters - '@',' < ', ' >', etc. Control characters - '^A','^B', etc. Each character has a numeric representation. How can we find that out? printf("The numeric representation of %c is %d\n",'a','a'); The characters whose ASCII values are between 32 and 126 are said to be printable characters. The others have special meanings, for example, '^J' is the newline ('\n') character in Unix, '^I' is the tab ('\t') character.
