　　Choosing a DSP for a particular application is not always easy. The first decision is on whether to choose a fixed point or a floating point device.［2］ Generally, fixed point devices are cheaper and quicker, but floating point devices are more convenient to program and more suited to calculation-intensive algorithms. Second, the data width of the DSP determines how accurately it can represent numbers. Speed is another issue, not only how many cycles occur in each second, but also how many instructions execute in each cycle and how much work each of these instructions accomplishes. One way to
