PORTLAND, Ore. — Freescale Semiconductor's embedded DSP targets scalable video coding (SVC) using a customizable H.264/SVC algorithm for its StarCore DSP. The chip maker said its design enables ...

Compiling digital signal processing application code is not a push-button process—at least, not unless you're willing to settle for inefficient code. Signal processing algorithms (and the processors ...

Developing software for digital signal processors (DSPs) traditionally involves a multi-step process: crafting the algorithm code in a specialised tool, adapting it for a specific domain, and ...

As DSP processors become more powerful and compiler optimization techniques improve, the once common trend of writing DSP applications solely in assembly has withered away. Today, almost every DSP ...

Digital signal processors (DSPs) have found widespread use for many computationally intensive signal processing applications in fields such as communications. As the communication applications become ...

Programming processors is becoming more complicated as more and different types of processing elements are included in the same architecture. While systems architects may revel in the number of ...

From pocket MP3 players to DVD players that sit on your knees, there are a host of digital personal entertainment devices offering almost any combination of audio and visual capability imaginable.

Eight years ago, a New Electronics article about digital signal processors started: ‘Jump back a decade or more and there was little difficulty identifying just what digital signal processing was.
