PROCESSOR FEATURES (Continued)
The processor family provides a variety of features. For a com-
parison across family members, see Table 1.
PARALLEL COMPUTATIONS
Single-cycle multiply and ALU operations in parallel with 
dual memory read/writes and instruction fetch
Multiply with add and subtract for accelerated FFT butterfly 
computation
UP TO 4M BIT ON-CHIP SRAM
Dual-ported for independent access by core processor and 
DMA
OFF-CHIP MEMORY INTERFACING
4 gigawords addressable
Programmable wait state generation, page-mode DRAM 
support
DMA CONTROLLER
10 DMA channels for transfers between ADSP-2106x internal 
memory and external memory, external peripherals, host 
processor, serial ports, or link ports
Background DMA transfers at up to 40 MHz, in parallel with 
full-speed processor execution
HOST PROCESSOR INTERFACE TO 16- AND 32-BIT 
MICROPROCESSORS
Host can directly read/write ADSP-2106x internal memory 
and IOP registers
MULTIPROCESSING
Glueless connection for scalable DSP multiprocessing 
architecture
Distributed on-chip bus arbitration for parallel bus connect 
of up to six ADSP-2106xs plus host
6 link ports for point-to-point connectivity and array 
multiprocessing
240 MBps transfer rate over parallel bus
240 MBps transfer rate over link ports
SERIAL PORTS
Two 40 Mbps synchronous serial ports with companding 
hardware
Independent transmit and receive functions
