ARM vs DSP
Introduction ARM has rapidly built a global reputation in the embedded microprocessor industry by delivering high performance 32- bit RISC designs with the cost effectiveness, power efficiency, robust development environments and ease of use that has allowed them to replace 8- and 16-bit microprocessors in high volume embedded designs. ARM’s products are sourced through a unique partnership between ARM and the world’s most powerful semiconductor companies - this kind of backup offers OEMs the modem, flexible choice of custom ASIC and ASSP implementations their business environment demands. ARM operates at the convergence of the communication, computer and consumer markets. Signal processing is a key technology in such markets. This paper describes the effective way ARM’s RISC architecture has been used to implement signal processing systems in volume consumer products. It examines the technical details that make the ARM architecture a suitable target for DSP software, and uses real-world examples to illustrate the benefits of this approach.
