The data registers in the register file, the DAG registers, and the multiplier result register all have secondary registers.
On-Chip Memory
The primary registers are active at reset, while the secondary registers are activated by control bits in a mode control register. The ADSP-21371 processor contains 1 megabit of internal RAM and four megabits of internal mask-programmable ROM (see
