Core and I/O supply voltage regulators should be located close to the DSP (or DSP array) to minimize inductance and resistance in the power delivery path. Additionally, when designing for
power-supply decoupling
In order to properly decouple the supply planes from system noise, place as many capacitors (caps) as possible close to the DSP. Assuming 0603 caps, the user should be able to fit a total of 60 caps — 30 for the core supply and 30 for the I/O supply. These caps need to be close (no more than 1.25 cm maximum distance) to the DSP to be effective. Physically smaller caps are better, such as 0402, but the size needs to be evaluated from a yield/manufacturing
