Abstract

Despite the numerous advantages of digital signal processing (DSP), and the existence of a wealth of sophisticated algorithms, the widespread application of DSP has been hindered by a shortage of cost-effective digital hardware for volume use. Now, with the availability of low-cost high-speed VLSI circuits, such as the Texas Instruments TMS320, the virtues and power of DSP are ready for realtime signal processing applications. Development of the single-chip TMS320 DSP computer began in the late 1970s. The architecture, key novel features, instruction set and capabilities of this device are examined. Support software and hardware development tools for the TMS320 are also included with some of its applications. Typical areas of application of the TMS320 include speech signal processing, telecommunications, robotics, radar signal and sonar signal processing, seismology, image processing, audio recording and reproduction, biomedical instrumentation, acoustic noise measurements and automatic test equipment.
