The ADSP-SC57x/ADSP-2157x processors are members of the SHARC® family of products. The ADSP-SC57x processor is based on the SHARC+® dual-core and the ARM® Cortex®-A5 core. The ADSP-SC57x/ADSP-2157x SHARC processors are members of the single-instruction, multiple data (SIMD) SHARC family of digital signal processors (DSPs) that feature Analog Devices Super Harvard Architecture. These 32-bit/40-bit/64-bit floating-point processors are optimized for high performance audio/floating-point applications with large on-chip static random-access memory (SRAM), multiple internal buses that eliminate input/output (I/O) bottlenecks, and innovative digital audio interfaces (DAI). New additions to the SHARC+ core include cache enhancements and branch prediction, while maintaining instruction set compatibility to previous SHARC products.
By integrating a set of industry leading system peripherals and memory, the ARM Cortex-A5 and SHARC processor is the platform of choice for applications that require programmability similar to reduced instruction set computing (RISC), multimedia support, and leading edge signal processing in one integrated package. These applications span a wide array of markets, including automotive, professional audio, and industrial-based applications that require high floating-point performance.
