ABSTRACT:
A digital signal processor includes a control block configured to issue instructions based on a stored program, and a compute array including two or more compute engines configured such that each of the issued instructions executes in successive compute engines of at least a subset of the compute engines at successive times. The digital signal processor may be utilized with a control processor or as a stand-alone processor. The compute array may be configured such that each of the issued instructions flows through successive compute engines of at least a subset of the compute engines at successive times.
