R MP3 NG: A Next Generation Consumer Platform MP3 Technology MP3 refers to the MPEG Layer 3 audio compression scheme that was defined as part of the International Standards Organization (ISO) Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG) audio/video coding standard. MPEG-I defined three encoding schemes, referred to as Layer 1, Layer 2, and Layer 3. Each of these schemes uses increasing sophisticated encoding techniques and gives correspondingly better audio quality at a given bit rate. The three laye

Enhanced JTAG (ICE Interface) R MP3 NG: A Next Generation Consumer Platform The variable page size lets each mapping independently represent memory regions that can range from 4 KB to 16 MB. This feature lets the system designer adjust the address mapping granularity for different memory regions. Locking TLB entries excludes entries from being recommended for replacement when there is an address miss. This lets the system designer have mappings for critical regions of code and or data locke
