TI will be publishing a C40 application book in 1Q93 that has design examples,
code, etc., but it is not ready yet at this time.

In the meantime, here are some places to find some info that may be helpful:
  o Design examples - TI publishes the schematics of its C40 "PPDS" development
    system and even puts the Orcad model for it on the TI BBS.  While this is
    not a minimalist system (it has four processors), it may help some.
  o Software/parallel use - TI has published two ap notes for the C40 (which
    will be "rolled" into the ap book).  The first is a parallel matrix
    multiplication ap note and the second is a parallel 2-D FFT ap note.  The
    literature numbers for these are SPRA026 and SPRA027, respectively.  Also,
    non-parallel code (FFTs, filters, etc.) can be found in the C40 user's
    guide (lit number SPRU063).  Note that all code can also be found on the
    BBS.  This literature is available through TI distributors, TI sales
    offices, and our Customer Response Center (800)-336-5236, and the TM320
    Hotline.
