Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
auxiliary register
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
A register that is used as a pointer to an address within the data-space address range. The register is operated on by the auxiliary register arithmetic unit (ARAU) and is selected by the auxiliary ...
accumulator buffer (ACCB)
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
A register that temporarily stores the contents of the accumulator (ACC). The ACCB has a direct path back to the arithmetic logic unit (ALU) and can be arithmetically or logically acted upon with the ...
accumulator (ACC)
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
A register that temporarily stores the results of an arithmetic logic unit (ALU) operation and provides an input for subsequent ALU operations. The ACC is accessible in two halves: accumulator high ...
asynchronous data transmit and receive register (ADTR)
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
A register used by the on-chip asynchronous serial port. Data to transmit is written to the 8 least significant bits (LSBs) of the ADTR, and received data is read from the 8 LSBs of the ADTR. See ...
archiver
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
A software program that collects several individual files into a single file called an archive library. With the archiver, you can add, delete, extract, or replace members of the archive library.
assembler
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
A software program that creates a machine-language program from a source file that contains assembly language instructions and directives. The assembler substitutes absolute operation codes for ...
assembly optimizer
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
A software program that optimizes linear assembly code, which is assembly code that has not been register-allocated or scheduled. The assembly optimizer is automatically invoked with the shell ...
