  • Input-output buffers for a digital signal processing system
    Patent number: 4447873
    Abstract: Input-output buffers interface a data terminal, such as a digital signal processor adapted to perform complex arithmetic functions on vectors of data words, with a storage controller. The input buffer interfaces the storage controller with the data terminal and generates control signals indicating when it is in condition to receive a vector of data words from the storage controller, whereon the storage controller transfers a vector of data to the input buffer; and, further, generates signals indicating when it contains a complete vector of data at which time the input buffer will transfer the vector of data contained therein to the data terminal.
