Custom Single Purpose Processors
Introduction:-
- A single-purpose processor is a digital system intended to solve a specific computation task.
- A manufacturer builds a standard single-purpose processor for use in a variety of applications.
- A custom single purpose processor to execute a specific task within our embedded system.
- Benefits of a custom single purpose processor are:
- performance is fast, due to fewer clock cycles.
- It consists of simpler functional units, less multiplexers, or simpler control logic.
- size is small, due to a simpler datapath.
- No program memory.
- Less NRE cost.
- Reduced performance and size.
