Abstract :
This paper presents an overview of an architecture for a single-chip multiprocessor DSP solution for communications applications. The integrated circuit was designed to handle the protocol and data-pump functions necessary to implement high-speed modem and audio tasks. The chip consists of a 186 microcontroller with two Digital Signal Processing (DSPs) coprocessors. It interfaces with a standard 186 bus and has a port for communicating with a custom CODEC, the 80127
