The integration of modem controller and data pumpalgorithmS into a Single RAM-baSed DSP hardware architecture. TheSe integrated algorithmS are Stored on the computer' S hard diSk, from which they are downloaded into the DSP board' S random acceSS memory (RAM). ThiS downloading, or "booting" proceSS of the PC-inStalled Software algorithmS occurS aS part of the computer' S power-up initialiSation proceSS in leSS than 100 milliSecondS, making it tranSparent to the uSer.
