Hi there, I'm reading a paper at the moment which refers to an "A-DSP", and also refers to "analog-to-digital signal processing circuit". What exactly is this? Is it simply a ADC or is it a ADC and DSP board in one? This device intefaces to a PC via an IO-board and its not clear if signal processing takes place on the A-DSP or the PC. Can anyone enlighten me? Regards, Cathal.
What's an A-DSP?

Like several sentences around the usage of the unfamiliar terms.
