    Abstract: A method and apparatus for digital signal processing (DSP) is provided having a main processor system (MPS) connected through a bridge to digital signal processing hardware (DSPH). MPS has a processor subsystem which receives input from input devices. Processor subsystem interfaces to display subsystem which presents information to a user through a graphical user interface. DSPH has generic logic resources (GLR) which implement the DSP and a digital signal processing system (DSPS) circuitry which supports the DSP functions. This circuitry includes memory and optionally additional microprocessor(s). Bridge circuitry is also included to implement the client portion of the bridge. The DSPS connects to high speed input output (HSIO) ports, to a digital to analog converter (DAC), and an analog to digital converter (ADC). Add-on modules (AOM) which contain circuitry which extends the capabilities of the DSPS may be connected to the DSPS, ADC, and DAC through the HSIO ports.
