A technique for digitising speech by sampling the sound waves and converting each sample into a binary number.
Industry:Semiconductors
Multiple arithmetic with Asize set to halfword.
The arithmetic logic unit (ALU) acts like two parallel ALUs because the carry-path is broken between bits 16 and 15.
Industry:Semiconductors
Top level of the 8-level last-in, first-out hardware stack.

1) A 1-bit field that specifies the source of the frame synchronisation transmit (FSX) pulse. At reset, TXM = 0. This bit is stored in the serial port control register (SPC) and TDM serial port control register (TSPC). 2) Bit 3 of the synchronous serial port control register (SSPCR); determines whether the source signal for frame synchronisation is external or internal.
Industry:Semiconductors
A master processor (MP) floating-point unit mode in which MP floating-point instructions are executed with denormals handled as defined in the IEEE-754 standard.
Industry:Semiconductors
A technique used by several functions (such as malloc, calloc, and realloc) to dynamically allocate memory for variables at runtime. This is accomplished by defining a large memory pool (heap) and using the functions to allocate memory from the heap.
Industry:Semiconductors
Multiple instruction stream, multiple data stream. A parallel processing structure composed of multiple independent processors.

Traditionally, a byte is a sequence of 8 adjacent bits operated upon as a unit. However, the TMS320C2x/C2xx/C5x byte is 16 bits.
By ANSI C definition, the sizeof operator yields the number of bytes required to store an object. ANSI further stipulates that when sizeof is applied to char, the result is 1. Since the TMS320C2x/C2xx/C5x char is 16 bits (to make it separately addressable), a byte is also 16 bits. This can yield unexpected results; for example, sizeof (int) = = 1 (not 2).
TMS320C2x/C2xx/C5x bytes and words are equivalent (16 bits).
A byte is 32 bits for the TMS320C3x/C4x. On a parallel processor and the ’C6x, where the smallest addressable unit is 8 bits in length, the C definition corresponds to the traditional notion of an 8-bit byte.

1) A defined action; namely, the act of obtaining a result from one or more operands in accordance with a rule that completely specifies the result of any permitted combination of operands. 2) The set of such acts specified by a rule, or the rule itself. 3) The act specified by a single computer instruction. 4) A programme step undertaken or executed by a computer, e.g., addition, multiplication, extraction, comparison, shift, transfer, etc. 5) The specific action performed by a logic element.
Industry:Semiconductors
A master processor (MP) floating-point unit mode in which multiple MP floating-point instructions are in various stages of completion in the floating-point multiply and/or add unit simultaneously.
