Addressing the Design Challenges of High Definition (HD) Audio and Other Consumer Applications with a 32-bit DSP Engine
Overview:
High-end audio applications such as HD DVDs, Digital TVs, Set-top Boxes and A/V Receivers are becoming an enormous challenge for DSP engines. With next generation HD audio codecs, such as Dolby Digital Plus 7.1 and DTS-HD, and the growing requirement for multi-stream decoding, a mere 16-bit DSP becomes an inadequate solution for these growing processing requirements. In addition, low power and small die size are still mandatory requirements when developing chips for such applications.

To address these design challenges and provide the much needed performance improvements, CEVA has introduced CEVA-TeakLite-III, a new native 32-bit TeakLite-compatible architecture.

In this webinar, you will learn how to address the design challenges of next generation High Definition (HD) Audio applications and other consumer applications such as multi-channel VoIP gateways and low-cost multimode handsets and advanced portable audio devices, using the new CEVA-TeakLite-III DSP. This webinar will reveal the insides of a 32-bit DSP that is both powerful enough to support 4 simultaneous Dolby Digital Plus streams and small enough to fit into any portable embedded solution.

Who Should Attend:
Design engineers, DSP specialists, engineering management and system architects responsible for and/or designing next-generation applications such as:
  • HD audio device
  • Multi-channel VoIP gateways
  • Low-cost multimode wireless baseband (2G/2.5G/3G)
  • Advanced portable audio players (PMPs, music phones)
Design engineers, DSP specialists, engineering management and system architects using the CEVA-TeakLite and CEVA-TeakLite-II cores.
