ADSP-2186
–2–
REV. 0
biased rounding, result free ALU operations, I/O memory trans-
fers and global interrupt masking for increased flexibility.
Fabricated in a high speed, double metal, low power, CMOS
process, the ADSP-2186 operates with a 30 ns instruction cycle
time. Every instruction can execute in a single processor cycle.
The ADSP-2186’s flexible architecture and comprehensive
instruction set allow the processor to perform multiple opera-
tions in parallel. In one processor cycle the ADSP-2186 can:
• Generate the next program address
• Fetch the next instruction
• Perform one or two data moves
• Update one or two data address pointers
• Perform a computational operation
This takes place while the processor continues to:
• Receive and transmit data through the two serial ports
• Receive and/or transmit data through the internal DMA port
• Receive and/or transmit data through the byte DMA port
• Decrement timer
Development System
The ADSP-2100 Family Development Software, a complete set
of tools for software and hardware system development, sup-
ports the ADSP-2186. The System Builder provides a high level
method for defining the architecture of systems under develop-
ment. The Assembler has an algebraic syntax that is easy to
program and debug. The Linker combines object files into an
executable file. The Simulator provides an interactive instruction-
level simulation with a reconfigurable user interface to display
different portions of the hardware environment. A PROM
Splitter generates PROM programmer compatible files. The
C Compiler, based on the Free Software Foundation’s GNU
C Compiler, generates ADSP-2186 assembly source code.
The source code debugger allows programs to be corrected in
the C environment. The Runtime Library includes over 100
ANSI-standard mathematical and DSP-specific functions.
The EZ-KIT Lite is a hardware/software kit offering a complete
development environment for the entire ADSP-21xx family: an
ADSP-218x based evaluation board with PC monitor software
plus Assembler, Linker, Simulator and PROM Splitter software.
The ADSP-21xx EZ-KIT Lite is a low cost, easy to use hardware
platform on which you can quickly get started with your DSP soft-
ware design. The EZ-KIT Lite includes the following features:
• 33 MHz ADSP-2181
• Full 16-bit Stereo Audio I/O with AD1847 SoundPort

The ADSP-218x EZ-ICE
®
* Emulator aids in the hardware
debugging of an ADSP-2186 system. The emulator consists of
hardware, host computer resident software, and the target board
connector. The ADSP-2186 integrates on-chip emulation sup-
port with a 14-pin ICE-Port™* interface. This interface pro-
vides a simpler target board connection that requires fewer
mechanical clearance considerations than other ADSP-2100
Family EZ-ICE
®
*s. The ADSP-2186 device need not be re-
moved from the target system when using the EZ-ICE
®
*, nor
are any adapters needed. Due to the small footprint of the
EZ-ICE
®
* connector, emulation can be supported in final board
designs.
The EZ-ICE
®
* performs a full range of functions, including:
• In-target operation
• Up to 20 breakpoints
• Single-step or full-speed operation
• Registers and memory values can be examined and altered
• PC upload and download functions
• Instruction-level emulation of program booting and execution
• Complete assembly and disassembly of instructions
• C source-level debugging

Additional Information
This data sheet provides a general overview of ADSP-2186
functionality. For additional information on the architecture and
instruction set of the processor, refer to the ADSP-2100 Family
User’s Manual. For more information about the development
tools, refer to the ADSP-2100 Family Development Tools Data
Sheet.
ARCHITECTURE OVERVIEW
The ADSP-2186 instruction set provides flexible data moves
and multifunction (one or two data moves with a computation)
instructions. Every instruction can be executed in a single pro-
cessor cycle. The ADSP-2186 assembly language uses an alge-
braic syntax for ease of coding and readability. A comprehensive
set of development tools supports program development.

Figure 1. Block Diagram
Figure 1 is an overall block diagram of the ADSP-2186. The
processor contains three independent computational units: the
ALU, the multiplier/accumulator (MAC) and the shifter. The
computational units process 16-bit data directly and have provi-
sions to support multiprecision computations. The ALU per-
forms a standard set of arithmetic and logic operations; division
primitives are also supported. The MAC performs single-cycle
multiply, multiply/add and multiply/subtract operations with
40 bits of accumulation. The shifter performs logical and arith-
metic shifts, normalization, denormalization and derive expo-
nent operations.
