Table of Contents ASIC news 0.18-micron technology offers flexibility, innovation Three new families of ASIC products will be the first on the market to implement TImeline Technology, the 125-million-transistors-on- a-chip breakthrough from Texas Instruments. DSP news You could win $100,000 It's time again for the TI Digital Signal Processing Solutions Challenge. Acoustic Echo Cancellation -- Algorithms and Implementation on the TMS320C8x application report The industrial revolution meets the DSP Manufacturing has experienced two phenomenal changes in the past 100 years. First came the industrial revolution, with motors and belts and gears to make work faster and more efficient. then came the advent of the information age with powerful computers to help manage businesses and operate equipment. TI DSP controller for digital motor control enables higher performance, lower system cost A new digital signal processor from TI is the first designed specifically to improve system performance, lower system cost and reduce component count in digital motor and motion control systems. New multiprocessor DSP for visual communications applications The newest member of the highest-performing family of multiprocessor digital signal processors is now available in sample quantities from TI. The new TMS320C82 DSP will bring high performance and lower power consumption at an affordable price to digital video, graphic, imaging and other high-speed visual communications applications. Seagate picks TI cDSP One of the world's largest hard disk drive makers has chosen a customizable digital signal processor core from Texas Instruments to serve as the sole processor in a new product offering. Networking news First Ethernet Switch-on-a-chip TI's new Ethernet "switch-on-a-chip" offers performance, flexibility and affordability, enabling new extensible designs and reducing costs for a wide variety of network switching equipment. Memory news New 16-Mbit synchronous DRAM offers lower cost and improved performance for PC graphics TI has recently disclosed a new 32-bit wide 16-Mbit synchronous DRAM (SDRAM) that will improve performance while reducing costs by cutting chip count in mainstream PC graphics subsystems. Mixed-signal news High-speed MOSFET drivers designed for switching TI is offering its first series in a full product line of MOSFET drivers. The family of low cost, dual channel, high-speed MOSFET drivers is well suited for power supply and other high-speed switching applications such as motor drivers, automotive applications. PCMCIA power switches feature optimal performance, lower cost Two new PC Card power-interface switches featuring accelerated performance and lower cost are now available from TI. New InfoNavigator saves time when researching mixed-signal and analog devices A new CD-based "Designer's Guide and Data Book" from Texas Instruments includes a powerful search engine that will save time when researching mixed-signal or analog devices. Chipset converts single-ended to differential SCSI TI's new two-chip solution enables designers to convert single- ended to differential SCSI without host or target controller intervention. TI offers first 1394 design kits Texas Instruments offers the industry's first broad range of affordably priced 1394 design kits. These kits will help designers of computer, consumer electronics and telecommunications systems develop products incorporating the 1394 technology. New CMOS linear sensor offers 400 DPI TI's new linear image sensor with 400 dots per inch (DPI) of pixel pitch includes a new hold function to minimize image skewing. New rail-to-rail CMOS op amps available in tiny SOT-23 package A new family of low-voltage rail-to-rail op amps in the Small Outline Transistor (SOT)-23 package is now available from Texas Instruments. These amplifiers have low-noise voltage and low-power consumption, which makes them well suited for applications such as cellular phones, notebook computers, modems and any low-power, hand-held equipment. New GeoPort/AppleTalk transceiver available The SN75LBC777 is a low-power LinBiCMOS device that incorporates the drivers and receivers for a GeoPort or AppleTalk peripheral interface and a switched-capacitor voltage converter for single 5-V supply operation. New speech synthesizer offers latest features The MSP50C3x family is TI's new generation of speech synthesizers. It pairs two channels of LPC synthesis with a built-in 8-bit microprocessor for a flexible approach to low-cost consumer speech synthesis.
