Digital Signal Processors (DSP)

BOOT pin

Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)

The pin that enables the on-chip boot loader. When BOOT is held low, the processor executes the boot loader programme after a hardware reset. When BOOT is held high, the processor skips execution of ...

Logic phase

Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)

The phase of a CPU cycle during which internal values are changed. See also latch phase; CLKOUT1.

Raw data

Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)

Executable code or initialized data in an output section.

Latch phase

Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)

The phase of a CPU cycle during which internal values are held constant. See also logic phase; CLKOUT1.

Digitizer

Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)

The part of the video capture front end that converts the analogue video signal into a digital signal to be decoded.

Heap

Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)

A large pool of memory that can be allocated at runtime by application programmes and by the executive.

Operand

Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)

The part of an instruction that designates where the central processing unit (CPU) will fetch or store data. The operand consists of the arguments, or parameters, of an assembly language instruction, ...
