Abstract :
The movement toward using the system CPU to perform functions previously assigned to secondary chips is a superb example of the increasing momentum towards system on a chip. Once system designers understand the design issues, host signal processing promises to unlock the power in today´s advanced processors, and provide increased efficiency, flexibility and cost-saving
