Pipelining cannot decrease the processing time required for a single task. The advantage of pipelining is that it increases the throughput of the system when processing a stream of tasks. Applying too many pipelined functions can lead to increased latency - that is, the time required for a single task to propagate through the full pipe is ...
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.
Qualcomm announced Hexagon Vector Extensions (HVX). HVX is designed to allow significant compute workloads for advanced imaging and computer vision to be processed on the DSP instead of the CPU. [19] In March 2015 Qualcomm announced their Snapdragon Neural Processing Engine SDK which allow AI acceleration using the CPU, GPU and Hexagon DSP. [20]
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 Super Harvard Architecture Single-Chip Computer (SHARC) is a high performance floating-point and fixed-point DSP from Analog Devices. SHARC is used in a variety of signal processing applications ranging from audio processing, to single-CPU guided artillery shells to 1000-CPU over-the-horizon radar processing computers. The original design ...
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 ...
A digital signal processor (DSP) is a specialized microprocessor chip, with its architecture optimized for the operational needs of digital signal processing. [ 1 ] : 104–107 [ 2 ] DSPs are fabricated on metal–oxide–semiconductor (MOS) integrated circuit chips.
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 ...
