The processors have built-in, fixed-point digital signal processor (DSP) functionality performed by 16-bit multiply–accumulates (MACs), accompanied on-chip by a microcontroller. [1] It was designed for a unified low-power processor architecture that can run operating systems while simultaneously handling complex numeric tasks such as real ...
The MSC81xx is based on StarCore Architecture processors and the latest MSC8144 DSP combines four programmable SC3400 StarCore DSP cores. Each SC3400 StarCore DSP core has a clock speed of 1 GHz. XMOS produces a multi-core multi-threaded line of processor well suited to DSP operations, They come in various speeds ranging from 400 to 1600 MIPS ...
Hexagon is also known as QDSP6, standing for “sixth generation digital signal processor.” According to Qualcomm, the Hexagon architecture is designed to deliver performance with low power over a variety of applications. [3] [4] Each version of Hexagon has an instruction set and a micro-architecture. These two features are intimately related.
Motherboard of the NeXTcube from 1990 having a Motorola 68040 (25 MHz) and a digital signal processor Motorola 56001 with 25 MHz which was directly accessible via an interface. In most designs the 56000 is dedicated to one single task, because digital signal processing using special hardware is mostly real-time and does not allow any interruption.
Detailed descriptions of the μPD7720 architecture are found in Chance (1990), [8] Sweitzer (1984) [9] and Simpson (1984). [10] Briefly, the NEC μPD7720 runs at 4 MHz frequency with 128-word 16-bit data RAM, 512-word 13-bit data ROM, and 512-word 23-bit program memory, which has VLIW-like instruction format, enabling all of ALU operation, address register increment/decrement operation, and ...
Digital signal processing (DSP) is the use of digital processing, such as by computers or more specialized digital signal processors, to perform a wide variety of signal processing operations. The digital signals processed in this manner are a sequence of numbers that represent samples of a continuous variable in a domain such as time, space ...
TriMedia is a Harvard architecture [citation needed] CPU that features many DSP and SIMD operations to efficiently process audio and video data streams. For TriMedia processor optimal performance can be achieved by only programming in C / C++ as opposed to most other VLIW/DSP processors which require assembly language programming to achieve ...
[1] [2] Many processors in the family combine a DSP core based on the TMS320 C6000 VLIW DSP family and an ARM CPU core into a single system on chip. By using both a general-purpose processor and a DSP, the control and media portions can both be executed by separate processors. Later chips in the family included DSP-only and ARM-only processors.
