{{For|the theory of pain|Neuromatrix}}

'''NeuroMatrix''' is a [[digital signal processor]] (DSP) series developed by [[NTC Module]]. The DSP has a [[VLIW]]/[[SIMD]] architecture. It consists of a 32-bit [[Reduced instruction set computing|RISC]] core and a 64-bit vector co-processor. The vector co-processor supports vector operations with elements of variable bit length (US Pat. 6539368 B1) and is optimized to support the implementation of [[artificial neural network]]s.<ref name=fomine/><ref name=nmc/> From this derives the name NeuroMatrix Core (NMC). Newer devices contain multiple DSP cores and additional [[ARM architecture|ARM]] or [[PowerPC 400#PowerPC 470|PowerPC 470]] cores.
