Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
access stage
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
The optional third stage of the master processor’s fetch, execute, access (FEA) pipeline, during which memory accesses (load or store operations) occur.
address unit arithmetic
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
The parallel processor’s use of the local and global address units to perform general-purpose arithmetics in parallel with the data unit. The computed address is not used for memory access, but is ...
asynchronous transmit (TX) pin
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
The pin on which data is transmitted serially from the asynchronous serial port; accepts a character one bit at a time from the asynchronous serial port transmit shift register (AXSR).
autoinitialization
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
The process of initializing global C variables (contained in the .cinit section) before program execution begins.
allocation node
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
The processor node into which an inter node message is allocated.
address stage
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
The second stage of the parallel processor’s fetch, address, execute (FAE) pipeline during which addresses are calculated and supplied to the crossbar.
arithmetic logic unit (ALU)
Semiconductors; Digital Signal Processors (DSP)
The section of the computer that carries out all arithmetic operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, or comparison) and logic functions.
