Description

The PDSP1601 is a high performance 16-bit arithmetic logic unit with an independent on-chip 16-bit barrel shifter. It has two operating modes giving 20MHz or 10MHz register-to-register transfer rates. The PDSP1601 supports Multicycle multiprecision operation, allowing it to operate at different frequencies depending on the field size. It can also be cascaded to produce wider words at the 20MHz rate using the Carry Out and Carry In pins. The Barrel Shifter is also capable of extension, for example, selecting a 16-bit field from a 32-bit input in 100ns.
