New Digital Signal Processing Board Boasts Four 1GHz Texas Instruments'DSPs
Sundance Multiprocessor Technology has created a new high-speed board that liberates DSP system designers, engineers and research specialists from having to custom-design their own boards or interconnections. Created to set pulses racing, the SMT395Q features four of Texas Instruments' highest powered fixed-point DSPs, each running at 1GHz and each capable of supplying 8000 MIPS of processing power.
(PRWEB) May 14, 2005 -- Sundance Multiprocessor Technology has created a new
high-speed board that liberates DSP system designers, engineers and research
specialists from having to custom-design their own boards or interconnections.
Created to set pulses racing, the SMT395Q features four of Texas Instruments'
highest powered fixed-point DSPs, each running at 1GHz and each capable of
supplying 8000 MIPS of processing power.
To ensure blistering
performance, the design team at Sundance has integrated the quad DSP Texas
Instruments Module (TIM) with 256 MB of DDR SDRAM and the largest available
Xilinx Virtex-II Pro field programmable gate array (FPGA). With up to 125,000
available logic cells and ready-written cores for many functions the SMT395Q
promises customers a jump-start in developing their cutting-edge DSP systems.
Everything for the technologist is contained in this one desirable and compact
hardware package.
The SMT395Q board is easily accessed from a host
computer by plugging into a TIM carrier board. Software support for the host
interface is provided. FPGA and DSP programming is simple to upload from the
host PC using supplied software.
Thanks to the TIM modular system, the
SMT395Q is easy to expand to suit even the most challenging DSP project.
Standard and custom input/output possibilities are provided and more options can
be made available through an array of other Sundance products. A typical example
is a range of analogue-to-digital (ADC) and digital-to-analogue converter (DAC)
TIMs that are fully compatible with the SMT395Q and will enable the creation of
software radio systems – a current hot topic in DSP.
Commenting for
Sundance, Flemming Christensen, Sundance managing director said, “Research and
development in DSP systems is accelerating, it maybe a cliché, but time really
is money. Moreover, in a competitive world, you could also say too much time may
equal a lost opportunity. With this in mind we have designed the SMT395Q to give
any DSP development team an edge over their competitors.”
