Abstract :
This paper reviews the design methodology used to develop a new system of configurable modules for DSP in consumer electronics. To meet the various needs of low-cost consumer products required a configurable hardware architecture and a new form of instruction set to support it. The CD2450 has such an extendable architecture and instruction set. It is described and results are given on what has produced the best cost-performance designs
