Product Design: PD8 - Choosing the Best Processor for Your Audio DSP Application
Presenter:Paul Beckmann, DSP Concepts, LLC - Sunnyvale, CA, USA
Abstract:
This tutorial focuses on one of the key design decisions for audio product makers today - which processor to use for audio signal processing. While digital signal processors (DSPs) have been the processor of choice for many years, recent trends such as connectivity, integration, and low power are pushing designs to microcontrollers. This tutorial reviews the state of the art for both DSPs and microcontrollers and their applicability to audio products. We provide extensive benchmarking results and real world examples allowing you to make the right choice for your next design.
