Abstract

A digital signal processor for processing various types of signals, such as an image signal and an audio signal, a basic signal processing part, a programmable logic part, and a bus for connecting these parts together. Circuit configuration data is transferred to the programmable logic part from an external memory through a data input/output line and the bus under control of the basic signal processing part. The circuit configuration data corresponds to the types of signal processing that is to be performed, and several different types of signal processings can be performed successively.
