Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
Noninterlaced mode
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
A mode for the video controller (VC) in which each frame consists of a single vertical field.
Initialization at load time
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
An autoinitialization method used by the linker when linking C code. The linker uses this method when you invoke the linker with the –cr option. This method initializes variables at load time instead ...
Pipeline stall
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
Temporary halt to the normal fetching of operations. Events which cause a pipeline stall include: a cache-miss, an illegal operation detection, diversion of local port access to global port, a direct ...
SRAM banks
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
Static random access memory banks. These include parameter and data RAM and instruction and data caches.
Extended-precision floating-point format
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
A 40-bit representation of a floating-point number with a 32-bit mantissa and an 8-bit exponent.
Scrolling
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
A method of moving the contents of a window up, down, left, or right to view contents that weren’t originally shown.
Mnemonic
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
An alphanumeric symbol designed to aid human memory; it commonly represents the operation code of an assembly language instruction name that the assembler translates into machine code.
