Instruction speed

Post by gzimmer »

Hello,

The SPN1001 looks very interesting, but one question if I may.
I've read everything but haven't yet found details of instruction speed.

My question is whether the SPN1001 can process a FIR filter at full speed.
e.g. can it do a multiply and accumulate on the whole buffer at each sample?

If not, how many MACs can it manage at 48 KHz please ?

(and is processor speed documented somewhere ?)

Thanks ......... Zim

Instruction rate is 128xFs so 128 instructions are executed each sample period.

Fs is set by the external crystal and is 50KHz max, most people run at 32KHz for guitar type apps.
