Multimedia and Parrallel Signal Processors
Michel Harrand, Liang‐Gee Chen · 2007
Consumer electronics equipment such as game consoles, mobile handsets, home entertainment, or automotive security systems have become a major driver for high-performance yet low-power signal processing circuits. The diversity of new emergent standards adds a requirement for flexibility as an increasingly important feature of these systems. The trade-off between flexibility, performance and power consumption is addressed through a wide range of architectures mixing programmable and dedicated blocks.
