architecture matches the shape of the MAC operation. The two operands, C() and X(), are
directed to a multiply operation, and the result is summed. This process is built into the
chip by using two separate memories (X and Y) to feed a single-cycle MAC. The entire
process must occur under program control to direct the correct operands to the multiplier
and save the accumulator as needed. Since the two memories and the MAC are indepen-
dent, the DSP can perform two moves, a multiply and an accumulate, in a single
operation. As a result, many of the benchmarks shown in Table 1-1 can be executed at or
near the theoretical maximum speed for a single-multiplier architecture.

The high throughput of the DSP56K family of processors makes them well suited for com-
munication, high-speed control, numeric processing and computer and audio
applications. The main features that contribute to this high throughput include:
•
MOTOROLA
x(t)
Speed — Speeds high enough to easily address applications traditionally served by
low-end floating point DSPs.
