This document summarizes the TMS320C6X digital signal processor (DSP) architecture. It describes the key features of the TMS320C6X including its advanced very long instruction word (VLIW) architecture that can execute up to eight 32-bit instructions per cycle, achieving speeds up to 6000 million instructions per second. The CPU contains eight functional units including two multipliers and six arithmetic logic units. It also has 32 or 64 general purpose registers depending on the specific chip. The internal architecture includes the 32-bit CPU, on-chip program and data memory, and on-chip peripherals.
