The DSP56311 is intended for applications requiring a large amount of internal memory, such as networking and wireless infrastructure applications. The onboard EFCOP can accelerate general filtering applications, such as echo-cancellation applications, correlation, and general-purpose convolution based algorithms.
The Freescale DSP56311, a member of the DSP56300 DSP family, supports network applications with general filtering operations. The Enhanced Filter Coprocessor (EFCOP) executes filter algorithms in parallel with core operations enhancing signal quality with no impact on channel throughput or total channels supported. The result is increased overall performance. Like the other DSP56300 family members, the DSP56311 uses a high-performance, single-clock-cycle-per- instruction engine (DSP56000 code-compatible), a barrel shifter, 24-bit addressing, an instruction cache, and a direct memory access (DMA) controller (see Figure 1). The DSP56311 performs at up to 150 million multiply-accumulates per second (MMACS), attaining up to 300 MMACS when the EFCOP is in use. It operates with an internal 150 MHz clock with a 1.8 volt core and independent 3.3 volt input/output (I/O) power.

FEATUREs
High-Performance DSP56300 Core

• Object code compatible with the DSP56000 core with highly parallel instruction set
• Data arithmetic logic unit (Data ALU) with fully pipelined 24 × 24-bit parallel Multiplier-Accumulator (MAC), 56-bit parallel barrel shifter (fast shift and normalization; bit stream generation and parsing), conditional ALU instructions, and 24-bit or 16-bit arithmetic support under software control
• Program control unit (PCU) with position-independent code (PIC) support, addressing modes optimized for DSP applications (including immediate offsets), internal instruction cache controller, internal memory expandable hardware stack, nested hardware DO loops, and fast auto-return interrupts
• Direct memory access (DMA) with six DMA channels supporting internal and external accesses; one-, two- , and three-dimensional transfers (including circular buffering); end-of-block-transfer interrupts; and triggering from interrupt lines and all peripherals
