DSP (Digital Signal Processor) is a generic term for a kind of
specialized microprocessor chip.  TI makes them, but so do other
manufacturers.

I've never worked with them myself.  They're of interest in the context
of C mainly because they're perhaps the only kind of modern system
likely to have a C implementation with CHAR_BIT != 8.
