1.3 Multicore Shared Memory Controller (MSMC)

Note:

Read section 8.1 Multicore Shared Memory Controller (MSMC) of the TDA4VH TRM for more details.

The MSMC provides high-bandwidth data-movement and resource access to and from the internal processing elements of the compute cluster and the rest of the system.

Figure 1-4 (taken from the TDA4VH TRM) shows an overview of the MSMC and its surrounding modules.
