Abstract

We have developed a microprogramir!able signal processor for real-time ultrasonic signal processing. Processing speed was increased by the parallelism in horizontal microprogram using 104bits microcode and the Pipelined architecture. Control unit of the signal processor was designed by microprogrammed architec- ture and writable control store (WCS) which was interfaced with host computer, APPLE- ll . This enables the processor to develop and simulate various digital signal processing algorithms. The performance of the processor was evaluated by the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) program. The execution time to perform 16 bit 1024 points complex FF7, radix-2 DIT algorithm, was about 175 msec with IMHz master Clock. We can use this processor to Bevelop more efficient signal processing algorithms on the biological signal processing.
