Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
reduced instruction set computer (RISC)
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
A computer whose instruction set and related decode mechanism are much simpler than those of microprogrammed complex instruction set computers. The result is a higher instruction throughput and a ...
client
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
A program or task that requests services from a server program or task.
interrupt acknowledge signal (IACK)
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
An output signal that indicates an interrupt has been received and that the program counter is fetching the interrupt vector that forces the processor into the appropriate interrupt service routine.
local node
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
The local processor node. This term is relative. A task that executes on a particular node n considers node n its local node, but tasks that execute on other nodes consider node n to be a foreign ...
word
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
A character or bit string considered as an entity.
node-global port ID
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
A port ID that contains an explicit node number in the range 0 to 127. A node-global destination port ID is required to route a message across processor node boundaries in a multiprocessor system.
buffered serial port (BSP)
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
An on-chip module that consists of a full-duplex, double-buffered serial port interface and an autobuffering unit (ABU). The double-buffered serial port of the BSP is an enhanced version of the ...
