Adaptive Digital, provider of speech-based applications, has announced that its released integration-ready solutions make use of Texas Instruments’ (News - Alert) new TMS320C6472 six-core digital signal processor (DSP) to support high-density, VoIP and traditional telecommunications applications.

 

Texas Instruments has said that its TMS320C6000 DSP platform offers the highest performance, power efficiency and value for fixed-point DSPs in the industry, including single-core and multi-core devices. The C6472’s processing and low-power capabilities make it a more suitable option for apps like imaging/video, communication and broadband infrastructure, high end computing, wireless media gateways, and remote access servers and many more.

 

Designed with these memory-intensive telephony infrastructure applications in mind, TI’s C6472 expansive on-chip available memory eliminates the need for external memory, therefore reducing system power dissipation and improving the cost effectiveness of the equipment.

 

Although the C6472 is among TI’s highest performance DSPs, it also features low power consumption and competitive pricing. Six C64x+ DSP cores, 4.8 MB of on-chip memory and an optimized DSP architecture combine to deliver up to the equivalent of 4.2-GHz performance. The three speed options 500/625/700 MHz – deliver 24,000, 30,000 and 33,600 (16-bit) MMAC performance, respectively. The C6472 consumes 0.15 mW/MIPS at 3 GHz and has a low entry point price. It also offers a rich set of peripherals including Gigabit Ethernet, sRIO, DDR2, TSIP, HPI (News - Alert), Utopia, I2C, timer and GPIO.

 

Adaptive Digital has claimed that its chip solutions help developers to implement high-density, multi-channel, voice-over-packet applications in the shortest possible time with maximum processing performance. The implementation-ready application solutions include high-density Voice over IP, AT&T (News - Alert)-certified G.168 echo cancellation, conferencing, and transcoding.

 

Adaptive Digital, through its G.PAK Voice-over-packet DSP software solution framework and application-specific software and chips is making it easier for developers to take advantage of the TI’s new multi-core device. The company said that its combination of TI’s C6472 multi-core DSP and their field-tested algorithms and G.PAK framework, provide a solid foundation for the development of high-quality, differentiated telecom products.
