Each TMS320 DSP commercial family member has one of three prefixes: TMX,
TMP, or TMS. Texas Instruments recommends two of three possible prefix designators for its support tools: TMDX
and TMDS. These prefixes represent evolutionary stages of product development from engineering prototypes
(TMX/TMDX) through fully qualified production devices/tools (TMS/TMDS).
Device development evolutionary flow:
TMX Experimental device that is not necessarily representative of the final device’s electrical specifications
TMP Final silicon die that conforms to the device’s electrical specifications but has not completed quality
and reliability verification
TMS Fully qualified production device
Support tool development evolutionary flow:
TMDX Development-support product that has not yet completed Texas Instruments internal qualification
testing.
TMDS Fully qualified development-support product
TMX and TMP devices and TMDX development-support tools are shipped against the following disclaimer:
“Developmental product is intended for internal evaluation purposes.”
TMS devices and TMDS development-support tools have been characterized fully, and the quality and reliability of
the device have been demonstrated fully. TI’s standard warranty applies.
Predictions show that prototype devices (TMX or TMP) have a greater failure rate than the standard production
devices. Texas Instruments recommends that these devices not be used in any production system because their
expected end-use failure rate still is undefined. Only qualified production devices are to be used.
