New TigerSHARC delivers top DSP performance

26 March 2003 Computer/Embedded Technology

Analog Devices has released to production its new ADSP-TS101S TigerSHARC processor that operates at an industry-leading 2,4 billion multiply accumulates per second (GMACS) and 1,8 billion floating-point operations per second (GFLOPS). This positions ADI's TigerSHARC processor as offering the highest floating-point and fixed-point DSP performance available according to the company. Targeted at numerous signal processing applications that rely on multiple processors working together to execute computationally-intensive realtime functions, the TigerSHARC processor is well-suited to video and communication markets, including the 3G cellular and broadband wireless base stations, as well as defence, medical imaging, industrial instrumentation.

"Earlier this year, we announced that Analog Devices would deliver the industry's highest floating-point and fixed-point DSP performance," said Brian McAloon, group vice president, DSP and System Products, Analog Devices. "With the announcement of our new 300 MHz TigerSHARC processor, Analog Devices delivers on its promise, reaffirms our TigerSHARC processor's position as the premiere architecture for multiprocessing applications, and extends its industry lead in DSP performance."

At a 300 MHz clock rate, the ADSP-TS101S offers the DSP industry 1,8 GFLOPS and 2,4 GMACS 16-bit fixed-point performance as well as a 32-bit floating-point 1024 complex FFT time of 32,9 µs. It also offers a complete set of on-chip features such as a large 6 Mb internal memory, 14-channel zero-overhead DMA engine, and 1,8 GB I/O throughput.
