Designing an Efficient DSP Solution: Choosing the Right Processor and Software Development Toolchain

By Abhishek Bit, CAE, Synopsys; Jamie Campbell, CAE, Synopsys; Sergey Yakushkin, R&D Engineer, Synopsys

Read about key challenges in DSP implementation from both hardware and software application perspectives, and learn how a properly selected and configured DSP processor coupled with an advanced software development toolchain can overcome these challenges. This white paper describes how to generate tight, efficient, and maintainable DSP code for a platform consisting of an IP core based on a specialized instruction-set architecture (ISA) coupled with a DSP-aware toolchain.
