Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
real mode
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
16-bit native MS-DOS mode. This mode limits the available memory to 640K bytes. Calls to DOS may involve switching from protected to real mode. DOS real-mode tools are no longer supported by the ...
program memory
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
A memory region used for storing and executing programs.
variable-patch guided transfer
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
A type of guided transfer in which all patch size information is specified within the guide table rather than in the packet transfer parameters, allowing each patch within the transfer to have ...
immediate addressing
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
One of the methods for obtaining data values used by an instruction. The data value is a constant embedded directly into the instruction word; data memory is not accessed.
quantum levels
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
When a signal can only take on certain discrete values, these values are referred to as quantum levels.
protected mode
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
32-bit extended DOS mode. These programs require an extended memory manager and run only on larger processors (’386 or better). They can use all the available RAM on the computer up to 64M bytes.
data memory
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
A memory region used for storing and manipulating data.
