Abstract

A fully integrated speech recognition LSI has been developed. The speech recognition LSI can recognize a speaker-dependent vocabulary of about 200 isolated words with high accuracy in real time, using several memories, which are a phoneme template memory, word dictionary memory, and work memory. This LSI is designed to perform the total speech recognition processing, including the endpoint detection of the input utterance in a self-contained manner. With the pipelined structure of the function blocks, highly efficient parallel operations are achieved. Furthermore, satisfactory testability is assured with a scan path technique. The speech recognition LSI is fabricated with 2 /spl mu/m E/D NMOS process technology, employing two aluminium interconnection layers and a high resistivity poly-Si layer.
