Data Types
The ADSP-BF535 processor supports 32-bit words, 16-bit half words,
and bytes. The 32- and 16-bit words can be integer or fractional, but bytes
are always integers. Integer data types can be signed or unsigned, but frac-
tional data types are always signed.
Table 2-2
illustrates the data formats for data that resides in memory, in
the register file, and in the accumulators. In the table, the letter
d
repre-
sents one bit, and the letter
s
represents one signed bit.
Some instructions manipulate data in the registers by sign extending or
zero extending the data to 32 bits:
• Instructions zero-extend unsigned data
• Instructions sign-extend signed 16-bit half words and 8-bit bytes
