Digital Signal Processing

DSP – digital signal processing is the representation of signals by a sequence of numbers or symbols and the processing of those signals. A digital signal processor is a specialised microprocessor with an optimized architecture for the fast operational needs of digital signal processing. They are PCI interfaces made within the electronics industry and used within the IT industry for PC solutions within Processor Boards, TIM-40 Modules, I/O Boards and Software. Specialist companies can be found online that supply both boards and subsystems via national and international distributors who then pass them through to specialist shops and stores. A DSP is not for the layman but more for those who are conversant with PC’s and within the building or repair area of IT. There are lots of Computer shows and events where manufacturers will be able to show their DSP systems but they are not always in the UK. If you are prepared to travel within Europe you can visit the Real Time/Embedded computer shows in Belgium and the Netherlands or the Embeede Systems computer show in Germany. If you cannot travel abroad then it is possible to attend Computer or Electronics Trade Fairs within the UK and a search on the internet will probably pull up a list of events throughout the year.DSP systems can be purchased through distributors or suppliers of IT hardware and they can be found online if you search the term “DSP” or “Digital Signal Processor”
