There will be similarities due to TI's tool chain, but TMS340XXX and
TMS320XXX are not really similar. (Like difference between i80386 and i960 ...)
TMS340 are bit-addressable graphics
processors with BitBLT and line draw accelaration,
TMS320 are DSPs which do multiply-accumulate etc. In particular TMS340C3X
and TMS320C4X are floating-point DSPs.
