The objective of this project is to integrate an 8-bit 8051 processor core with a
general purpose 16-bit fixed-point digital signal processor core using FPGA. The
integrated circuit (IC) chip gives birth to a new processor family called the digital
unique control ability of the MCU and the inherent number-crunching prowess of
the DSP. This provides a tighter coupling of control and signal processing besides
the other apparent advantages of reduced board space, cheaper component cost and
lower system power consumption. The presence of this chip will generate more
management products. The Digital Signal Controller combines the MCU’s control-
orientated attributes with the DSP’s fast calculation capability to create a hybrid
architecture that is suitable for many of the engineering problems that have
previously required both MCU’s and DSP’s together. The architecture was
