Abstract

A digital signal processor has an arithmetic operation device that carries out arithmetic operations. The arithmetic operation device has a plurality of elementary arithmetic operation units. A signal path-forming device forms signal paths for inputting and outputting signals to and from the elementary arithmetic operations units, according to a predetermined program. The arithmetic operation device carries out processing of a digital signal input to the digital signal processor after the signal paths have been formed by the signal path-forming device.
