Architecture and Instruction Set of a 60 ns DSP (NOT KNOWN IF PUBLISHED BECAUSE AUTHOR HAS LEFT AT&T)

This paper will discuss the architecture and instruction set of the WE DSP16 Digital Signal Processor, a 16-bit, high performance, low power, CMOS integrated circuit. Tools aiding in software and hardware development for the device will be described. Finally, an application example using the DSP16 instruction set will highlight the key features of the DSP16 architecture, illustrating speed, memory efficiency, and ease of application development.
