A scalable SIMD digital signal processor for high-quality multifunctional printer systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes a high-performance scalable SIMD digital signal processor (DSP) developed for multifunctional printer systems. The DSP supports a variable number of datapaths to cover a wide range of performance and maintain a RISC-like pipeline structure. Many special instructions suitable for image processing algorithms are included in the DSP. Quad/dual instructions are introduced for 8-bit or 16-bit data, and bit-field extraction/insertion instructions are supported to process various data types. Conditional instructions are supported to deal with complex relative conditions efficiently. In addition, an intelligent DMA block is integrated to align data in the course of data reading. Experimental results show that the proposed DSP outperforms a high-end printer-system DSP by at least two times.
