 General Description
MT6235 based on a dual-processor architecture, MT6235 integrates both an ARM926EJ-S core and a digital signal processor core. ARM926EJ-S is the main processor responsible for running high-level GSM/GPRS protocol software as well as multi-media applications. The digital signal processor manages the low-level MODEM as well as advanced audio unctions. Except for a few mixed-signal circuitries, the other building blocks in MT6235 are connected to either the microcontroller or the digital signal processor.

MT6235consists of the following subsystems:  
Microcontroller Unit (MCU) Subsystem: includes an ARM926EJ-S RISC processor and its accompanying memory management and interrupt handling logics;  
Digital Signal Processor (DSP) Subsystem: includes a DSP and its accompanying memory, memory controller, and interrupt controller;  
MCU/DSP Interface: the junction at which the MCU and the DSP exchange hardware and software information;  
Microcontroller Peripherals: includes all user interface modules and RF control interface modules;  
Microcontroller Coprocessors: runs computing-intensive processes in place of the Microcontroller;  
DSP Peripherals: hardware accelerators for GSM/GPRS/EDGE channel codec;  
Multi-media Subsystem: integrates several advanced accelerators to support multi-media applications;  
Voice Front End: the data path for converting analog speech to and from digital speech;
Audio Front End: the data path for converting stereo audio from an audio source;  
Baseband Front End: the data path for converting a digital signal to and from an analog signal from the RF modules; 
Timing Generator: generates the control signals related to the TDMA frame timing; and, 
Power, Reset and Clock Subsystem: manages the power, reset, and clock distribution inside MT6235.
