Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
blanking pulse
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
A positive or negative pulse developed during retrace, appearing at the end of each field; used to blank out scanning lines during the vertical or horizontal retrace interval. See also blanking.
sign extension
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
An operation that fills the high order bits of a number with the sign bit.
instruction-execute phase
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
The fourth phase of the pipeline; the phase in which the instruction is executed. See also pipeline.
command descriptor block (CDB)
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
A command block that is used to pass requests from an initiator to a target.
pragma
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
A preprocessor directive that provides directions to the compiler about how to treat a particular statement.
loop unrolling
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
An optimization that expands small loops so that each iteration of the loop appears in your code. Although loop unrolling increases code size, it can improve the efficiency of your code.
base set arithmetics
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
The fundamental set of parallel processor instructions that specify an arithmetic logic unit (ALU) arithmetic operation in the opcode. This set of instructions includes eleven class-independent ...
