Abstract
An apparatus for processing signals including a signal receiving circuit, a first processing circuit executing a first set of instructions, a second processing circuit executing a second set of instructions implementing a digital signal processing algorithm, an output circuit for outputting processed signals, and a communication circuit for communicatingly connecting the signal receiving circuit, the first processing circuit, the second processing circuit, and the output circuit. The first set of instructions includes control instructions for controlling operation of the apparatus and first operational instructions for processing signals; the second set of instructions includes second operational instructions for processing signals; selected of the second operational instructions produce interrupt results. When the first processing circuit receives an interrupt result it processes the interrupt result as a priority interrupt in executing the first set of instructions.
