A Low-Cost, High-Performance Digital Signal Processor (DSP) for Audio Applications

Digital audio signal processing has become increasingly common in multimedia systems as a result of the development of general-purpose digital signal processors (DSP processors) and high-precision oversampling analog-to-digital (A/D) converters. Nevertheless, the solution based on standard DSP chips could be too expensive and power-hungry for portable and home entertainment audio systems. As a result, it is necessary to locate an alternative solution that is both low-cost and low-power. In the context of digital audio applications, this paper will describe how a DSP (Digital Signal Processor) is created, as well as how its architecture functions. The proposed digital signal processor (DSP) has six stages of pipeline with a fixed 24-bit data format, and each stage has 125 instructions. The instructions for the audio signal processing are provided in a very specific manner. Each and every command is handled within the confines of a single cycle.
