Turbo Coding

[sayzer]

...
Turbo Coding is very computing intensive algorithm so if I can not accomplish to implement it with PIC microcontroller, which chip should I use?...

Hi obaskirt,


If you can divide this "intensive algorithm" into small pieces or sub-segments of math operations, then you can have many small PIC modules doing small math jobs and give you individual results.

You can then have a master PIC collecting these individual results and have a final calculation. The whole operation will be relatively faster.

But remember, the fastest PIC is 40Mhz I guess.
So you need to calculate precisely what speed & instruction execution time your "intensive algorithm" requires ; if you end up with a speed requirement say 4Ghz, forget PICs and use a PC instead.

Hi,

Here they use a TI MSP430 ultra-low-power 16-bit RISC mixed-signal processors.
(The MSP430 is used for the flight module).

Ask if you can use TI MSP430 for Turbo Coding.
The answer will be not possible, but maybe they will put you on the right tracks.
Remember that all this stuff must be low-power.

Maybe some PIC24 or DsPIC would do... but certainely not in Basic ... for now.

Microchip C30, Hi-Tech C support them
