Overview of DSP Processor Current Status of NTU DSP Laboratory (E1-304) Course outline of Programmable DSP Lab Lab handout and final project
DSP processor is a specially designed microprocessor for multimedia/communication applications Data path is configured for DSP algorithms (Inner product & convolutions) Specialized (DSP-oriented) instruction sets (Single-cycle MAC, Hamming distance operations, Saturation operations, etc.) Multiple memory banks and buses (Harvard architecture) Specialized addressing modes (FFT bit reversal) Specialized execution control (Loop control) Specialized peripherals for DSP (ADC, DAC, A/V Codec)
Implementation Choices of DSP Systems DSP system can be implement through many approaches Programmable DSP not only makes prototyping fast but also achieve great performance and power efficiency. DSP processor costs less than ASIC/FPGA if it is selected carefully with application-specific analysis.
Two 16-bit MACs (Multiply-and Accumulator), two 40-bit ALUs, four 8-bit Video ALUs Support for 8/16/32-bit integer and 16/32-bit fractional data types Concurrent Fetch of One instruction and Two unique data elements Two loop counters that allow for Nested Zero-overhead Looping A Modified Harvard architecture
Compute Unit Architecture
A single, unified 4G byte address space using 32-bit addresses The L1 memory system is the primary highest performance memory available to the core and is faster than L2 memory system The L2 memory system is off-chip and have longer access latencies
Parallel Peripheral Interface (PPI) Serial Ports (SPORTs) Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) General-purpose timers Universal Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter (UART) Real-Time Clock (RTC) Watchdog timer General-purpose I/O (programmable flags)
