MSD600M - Technical Reference Manual
available port bits have been defined (The re-
maining bits can in the future be defined as
both inputs or outputs).
The Input is a standard TTL compatible input with a
strong pull-up and an input protection resistor.

4.7 DSP Microcomputer
The MSD600M's data processing is entirely based
on a very powerful Digital Signal Processing (DSP)
microcomputer chip. By using DSP all errors with
ballistic and scaling found on older analogue
VU-Meter based equipment is virtually eliminated.
The Software Version referred to in the Info Menu is
the Software running on this DSP Microcomputer.
The used DSP is the Analogue Devices® ADSP-
2181, a single-chip microcomputer, optimised for
digital signal processing (DSP), and other high-
speed numeric processing applications. The com-
puter has 16K-words of (16-bit) data memory RAM,
and 16K-words of (24-bit) program memory RAM,
on-chip. It runs with an instruction cycle of 25ns
equals to 40 MIPS.
4.8 Flash-PROM (Program Storage
Media)
All programs executed by the DSP Microcomputer
are stored in a FLASH-PROM integrated circuit.
The flash-prom configuration allows new software
versions to be downloaded via the RS232 serial
communication port found on the Utility Module.
