Abstract: Disclosed examples include an apparatus. The apparatus may include first interfaces, second interfaces, a bus interface, and a buffer interface. The first interfaces may be to communicate at first data widths via first interconnects for operable coupling with data samples sources. The second interface may be to communicate at second data widths via second interconnects for operable coupling with data sinks. The buffer interface may be to communicate with a system to process data samples sampled using different sampling rates according to processing frame durations. The buffer interface may include an uplink channel handler and a downlink channel handler. The uplink channel handler may be to receive data samples from the first interfaces at first data widths and provide the data samples to the bus interface at third data widths.

Abstract: A data processing system 2 includes a processor core 4 and a memory 6. The processor core 4 includes processing circuitry 12, 14, 16, 18, 26 controlled by control signals generated by decoder circuitry 24 which decodes program instructions. The program instructions include mixed operand size instructions (either load/store instructions or arithmetic instructions) which have a first input operand of a first operand size and a second input operand of a second input operand size where the second operand size is smaller than the first operand size. The processing performed first converts the second operand so as to have the first operand size. The processing then generates a third operand using as inputs the first operand of the first operand size and the second operand now converted to have the first operand size.

Abstract: A device system and method for processing program instructions, for example, to execute intra vector operations. A fetch unit may receive a program instruction defining different operations on data elements stored at the same vector memory address. A processor may include different types of execution units each executing a different one of a predetermined plurality of elemental instructions. Each program instruction may be a combination of one or more of the elemental instructions. The processor may receive a vector of data elements stored non-consecutively at the same vector memory address to be processed by a same one of the elemental instructions and a vector of configuration values independently associated with executing the same elemental instruction on the non-consecutive data elements. At least two configuration values may be different to implement different operations by executing the same elemental instruction using the different configuration values on the vector of non-consecutive data elements.
