Abstract

It is usually not convenient to use the functions supplied by Visual DSP++ to operate peripherals interactively during debug when an emulator is used. In this paper we develop a simple framework which offers a configurable graphic user interface (GUI), a component to manipulate digital signal processor (DSP) memory and a virtual register mechanism. This framework can help DSP developer with modifying peripherals´ registers using a user-friendly dialog. Though the framework is developed using Python, a DSP developer who may not be familiar with Python can manipulate it easily.
