The TMS320C67x™ DSPs (including the SM320C6713 and SM320C6713B devices) compose the floating-point DSP generation in the TMS320C6000™ DSP platform. The C6713 and C6713B devices are based on the high-performance, advanced very-long-instruction-word (VLIW) architecture developed by Texas Instruments (TI), making this DSP an excellent choice for multichannel and multifunction applications. Throughout the remainder of this document, the SM320C6713 and SM320C6713B are referred to as 320C67x or C67x or 13/13B where generic, and where specific, their individual full device part numbers are used or abbreviated as C6713, C6713B, 13, or 13B, and so forth.

Operating at 225 MHz, the C6713/13B delivers up to 1350 million floating-point operations per second (MFLOPS), 1800 million instructions per second (MIPS), and with dual fixed-/floating-point multipliers up to 450 million multiply-accumulate operations per second (MMACS).

Operating at 300 MHz, the C6713B delivers up to 1800 million floating-point operations per second (MFLOPS), 2400 million instructions per second (MIPS), and with dual fixed-/floating-point multipliers up to 600 million multiply-accumulate operations per second (MMACS).

The C6713/13B has a rich peripheral set that includes two multichannel audio serial ports (McASPs), two multichannel buffered serial ports (McBSPs), two inter-integrated circuit (I²C) buses, one dedicated general-purpose input/output (GPIO) module, two general-purpose timers, a host-port interface (HPI), and a glueless external memory interface (EMIF) capable of interfacing to SDRAM, SBSRAM, and asynchronous peripherals.
