Texas Instruments released the world's first 1 GHz digital signal processor (DSP). The TMS320C6414T, '5T, and '6T DSPs at 1 GHz provide eight GigaMACs on 8-bit data for video and imaging applications, or four GigaMACs on the 16-bit data common to speech and audio applications. Being able to achieve high levels of performance in a single chip does away with the complexities of having to design with multiple processors. The 1 GHz device was evaluated by Berkeley Design Technology (BDTI), and received a BDTIMark2000 of 9130, the highest score BDTI had published for a mainstream DSP.
