Mixed-signal DSP family wins award

23 April 2003 News

Analog Devices' ADSP-2199x family - a high-performance mixed-signal processor with up to 160 million instructions per second (MIPS) sustained performance - has received Control Engineering magazine's 16th annual 'Editor's Choice' award. The receipt of this prestigious award is in addition to the recent inclusion of the ADSP-2199x mixed-signal processors on the year-end Top 100 Products list from EDN magazine.

"Of the long list of candidates considered, we selected ADI's ADSP-2199x family because of the innovative and technologically advanced approach the company took with the combination of high-performance analog and DSP functions on a single chip, meeting the evolving needs of the embedded control and signal processing markets," said Frank Bartos, editor, Control Engineering.

"We are honoured that Control Engineering, one of the leading publications covering the embedded control market, chose our ADSP-2199x family for its Editor's Choice award," said Dr Finbarr Moynihan, product line manager, 16-bit processors, Analog Devices. "These awards also show that the ADSP-2199x family is the best set of products to address the performance needs of traditional embedded control and signal processing applications as well as emerging applications, such as robotics, optical networking and intelligent sensor inter- faces."
