Texas Instruments Offers TMS320C66x Multicore DSPs
Texas Instruments offered the industry’s highest performing, scalable and flexible multicore solutions based on its TMS320C66x digital signal processor (DSP) generation. Customers designing products such as smart cameras, vision controllers and optical inspection systems, will benefit from the ultra-high performance, combined fixed-and floating-point performance, and increased number of peripherals and memory per core that TI’s C66x multicore DSPs deliver. In addition, TI is delivering a robust suite of multicore software, tools and support to ease development and get customers closer to tapping the full performance of C66x multicore DSPs.
With its C66x multicore DSP portfolio, TI offers improved compute performance, large on-chip memory and multiple high speed interfaces that enable industrial automation developers to easily implement advanced features and achieve higher system integration. With pin and software compatible platforms across TI’s TMS320C6671, TMS320C6672, TMS320C6674 and TMS320C6678 DSPs, customers can design integrated, power and cost-efficient products across the range of their product portfolios.
TI’s multicore DSPs are an ideal solution for high-end industrial automation products such as:
- Smart cameras
- Vision controllers
- Optical inspection systems
- Currency processing equipment
- Specialized surveillance systems
- Industrial printers and scanners
The C66x DSP core’s fixed- and floating-point capabilities are highly suited for audio infrastructure products as well as vibration and acoustic analyzers. The real-time nature of TI’s C66x multicore DSPs are also an excellent fit for high precision motion control and high channel count real-time process control systems like programmable logic controllers (PLCs) and programmable automation controller (PACs).
