Digital Signal Processors (DSP)

Device driver

Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)

Software that enables computer hardware to communicate with a device. A device driver may also translate data and call other drivers to actually send data to a device. The software development board ...

System shell

Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)

A method implemented with the SYSTEM command, by which the debugger can blank the debugger display and temporarily exit to the DOS prompt. This allows you to enter DOS commands or allows the debugger ...

Circular addressing

Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)

An addressing mode in which an auxiliary register is used to cycle through a range of addresses to create a circular buffer in memory. Also called modulo addressing.

Port ID

Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)

A 32-bit value the kernel uses to identify a port it has opened. See also ID.

Direct external access (DEA)

Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)

A method of accessing off-chip (external) memory without having to issue a packet transfer request to the tranfer controller (TC).

Big-endian

Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)

An addressing protocol in which bytes are numbered from left to right within a word. More significant bytes in a word have lower numbered addresses. Endian ordering is specific to hardware and is ...
