Re: DSP
In computer architecture, all processor inlucde DSP use interrput and control register to control it's IO.
DSP and MP are the same.
Maybe you will say, DSP should only do calculating.
But, what I mean is DSP also can do IO well.
And the MP is not stronger in IO than DSP, it's not the point.
Right?
And, one thing need to tell.
Some DSP company start to develop their DSP also include MP's capabilities.
They can run OS very well. Handle all peripherals and do MMU.
However, MP's company develop their MP to include DSP capabilities.
Like intel processor include more and more instruction sets for media processing now.
Maybe that's why many people still confuse about the different between DSP and MP.
