Abstract
An apparatus and method for data processing in a flexible multiple-DSP architecture that can be readily adapted to changing customer demands and changes in DSP processing capability is described. The apparatus comprises of two or more processors, two or more dedicated serial data buses, and a shared data bus. Each processor processes data received via the dedicated data bus in a first type of processing task. Each processor processes data received via the shared data bus in a second type of processing task.
