multimedia video processor (MVP)
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
A single-chip multiprocessor device that accelerates applications such as video compression and decompression, image processing, and graphics. The multimedia video processor contains a master ...
constant
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
A fixed or invariable value or data item that can be used as an operand.
microcall stack (MCS)
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
A single-word stack that temporarily stores the contents of the prefetch counter (PFC) while the PFC addresses data memory with the block move (BLDD/BLPD), multiply-accumulate (MAC/ MACD), and table ...
message header
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
A fixed-size structure at the beginning of a message buffer that contains the information that describes the message, its destination port, and so on, to the kernel functions that handle the message.
exception register
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
A field in a task descriptor that contains the associated task’s 32 exception flags.
floating-point exception handler routine
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
A routine used to service master processor floating-point exception traps in an effort to provide information to the user or to attempt recovery.
byte ordering bit (BOB)
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
A field that affects host processor data and address transfers when using the host port interface. Only the host processor can toggle this bit. The BOB must be initialized before the first data or ...
