Engineering Brief

Graphical Development Design for a Heterogeneous DSP Core Architecture

Authors: Chavez, Miguel

AES Convention 144 · Paper 423 · May 2018

Abstract

For over 15 years, Analog Devices has continued improving its graphical programming environment to support several, audio specific and general purpose digital signal processors (DSPs). As of 2016, all supported processors have either contained single or dual DSP cores whereas both of them have had the same architecture. With the need to have a heterogeneous DSP architecture the team had the challenge to program both cores within the same environment. This paper describes challenges, trade-offs and design decisions made when programming a new heterogeneous DSP core architecture.
