Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
gain stage
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
That portion of a circuit that increases a signal; also that portion of an algorithm that imposes a gain onto a digital signal.
event flag
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
A bit in memory that is bound to either a port or a semaphore and that indicates whether a specific event has taken place.
microcomputer mode
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
A mode in which the on-chip ROM or flash memory is enabled. This mode is selected with the MP/MC pin. See also MP/MC pin; microprocessor mode.
on-chip
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
An element or module internal to the device.
fetch
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
That portion of a computer cycle during which the next instruction is retrieved from memory.
present flag
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
A bit in the cache tag register associated with a cache subblock that indicates whether the information in the subblock is present in the cache.
unified mode
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
A mode of operation for the direct memory access (DMA) coprocessor. The mode is used mainly for memory-to-memory transfers. This is the default mode of operation for a DMA channel. See also split ...
