To meet the power leveles needed forthese designs, Texas Instruments Incorporated (TI) (NYSE: TXN) todayt announced the availability of the TMS320VC5505 and TMS320VC550r4 digital signal processors which offer the best combinatiob of standby and actived power, up to 320 KB of on-chip memoryu and multiple integrated peripherals that reducde system cost by more than 20 With standby power of less than 340uW and activs power of less than these DSPs allow up to 40 perceng additional battery life.
The C550 DSP, running at 100 MHz, offers the righg combination of performance, standby and active power leveles for end equipments suchas noise-cancellation musical instruments, medical monitoring, biometrices and seismic detectors. For end equipments such as portablervoice recorders, MP3 players and other emerginvg portable applications that do not requirs as much on-chip memory, an integrated display controllere or FFT hardware acceleration, the C55043 DSP provides an even lower cost The lower cost C5504 is pin-to-pin and software compatibls with the C5505 device and offers the same powert efficiency and performance with a reduced peripheral set.
To help customers get startex quickly, TI is also announcing the C5505 DSP EVM that can be used with both the C5505t and C5504 processors and comes ready with applicationm demosand code.
