MSP50C6xx Development Tools Guidelines

5-6

The emulation personality card, for the speech-EVM, that supports code
development on the MSP50C614, MSP50C605, MSP50C601, and
MSP50C604 (being used in master mode). A MSP50P614 is used on this
board to emulate the MSP50C6xx core. An EPROM is used on the
SPEECH-EVM board to emulate the data ROM of the MSP50C601 and
the MSP50C605.

EPC50C604

The emulation personality card, for the SPEECH-EVM, that supports code
development on the MSP50C604 (being used in slave mode). A
MSP50P614 is used on this board to emulate the MSP50C6xx core and
the external logic devices that are built on the personality card emulate the
slave mode of MSP50C604. The board has a 25-pin connector that allows
a PC parallel port to emulate the host processor.

PC50C604

The personality card, for the SPEECH-EVM, that has a 64-pin QFP socket
for a catalog MSP50C604 and a 16-pin DIP socket for a catalog
MSP53C39x (see the following note). This board can be used to develop
host codes for use with either a MSP50C691 or MSP53C392 slave device.
It also can be used with the SDS3000 software, which is a MSP50C3x
speech editing system.

Note:

The MSP50C691 and the MSP53C392 are catalog slave speech
synthesizers in the MSP50C6xx and the MSP50C3x family of speech
devices.

SPEECH–EVM (see the following note)

This board, along with the appropriate personality card, provides a basic
target board that a customer can use to begin code development. The
SPEECH–EVM can be used with the following personality cards:

EPC50C605

EPC50C604

PC50C604

This board supports the following speaker drive options:

LM386 (with volume control)

H bridge

direct drive

There is a socket for an EPROM on the SPEECH–EVM to emulate the
DATA ROM in the MSP50C601 and the MSP50C605.
