ADSP-21060KB-160

Digital Signal Processor Dsp Overview

The ADSP-21060KB-160 is a high-performance 32-bit floating-point digital signal processor from the Analog Devices SHARC family. It operates at a maximum clock frequency of 40 MHz, delivering 40 MIPS and 120 MFLOPS peak performance. The device integrates 4 Mbits of dual-ported on-chip SRAM and features an enhanced Super Harvard architecture with four independent buses for simultaneous instruction and data fetching. Key interfaces include a host processor interface, six link ports, two serial ports, and a DMA controller with ten channels. It supports IEEE 32-bit single-precision and 40-bit extended-precision floating-point formats.

Digital Signal Processor Dsp Feature Summary

• SHARC Core: 40 MIPS execution rate with single-cycle instruction execution and on-chip instruction cache.
• Memory Architecture: 4 Mbits dual-ported on-chip SRAM supporting independent core and DMA access.
• I/O Interfaces: Six link ports, two synchronous serial ports, and a host processor interface for external connectivity.
• DMA Controller: Ten channels enabling zero-overhead data transfers between internal memory, peripherals, and hosts.

Digital Signal Processor Dsp Applications

• High-performance communications systems
• Graphics and imaging processing applications
• Scalable DSP multiprocessing architectures

Digital Signal Processor Dsp Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'KB' against the manufacturer's current ordering guide to confirm package type (typically PBGA) and temperature range. Confirm RoHS compliance status as specifications are subject to change without notice. Check for end-of-life or obsolescence status through official Analog Devices channels before procurement planning.

Digital Signal Processor Dsp Selection Notes

Select this model for applications requiring high-throughput floating-point arithmetic and integrated system-on-chip features. Compare with the ADSP-21062 variant if only 2 Mbits of on-chip SRAM is sufficient, which may offer cost benefits. Ensure the design supports the required 5V I/O voltage levels associated with the standard ADSP-21060 series unless utilizing the low-voltage L-series variants.

Digital Signal Processor Dsp Part Context

The ADSP-21060 is part of the second-generation SHARC processor family introduced by Analog Devices. It builds upon the ADSP-21000 core architecture by integrating substantial on-chip memory and I/O peripherals, reducing the need for external components. This integration establishes a complete system-on-a-chip solution for complex signal processing tasks.
