Digital Signal Processing Architecture and Programming

Programmable DSP devices are becoming gradually available and affordable. These devices have, therefore, become prevalent in the industry for the design of products. Subsequently, many undergraduate senior projects and graduate projects are planned and executed using these devices. Many students attempt these projects based on a first-level course on digital signal processing. The books that are used in these classes do not, yet, cover the topics from the implementation point of view. There is normally a wide gap in students' sympathetic of DSP algorithms and how to use programmable DSP devices to implement them.

This is a DSP implementation-oriented textbook that has been written based on the authors' experience in teaching graduate and undergraduate courses on the subject. The objective of the book is to aid the reader to know the architecture, programming, and interfacing of commercially existing programmable DSP devices in the question answer form. The book is intended for undergraduate and post graduate students in Electronics, Electrical Engineering and computer science programs. The book will also be useful to engineers in industry betrothed in the design of DSP systems.

This book comprises 5 chapters and covers the architectural topics of programmable DSP devices and their association to the algorithmic requirements, architectures of commercially popular programmable devices and the usage of such strategies for software development and system design. These questions are covered using a popular family of DSP devices-TMS320C54xx from Texas Instruments.
