DSPR Introduces Computer Telephony Board Based on Texas Instruments 'C6201 LOS ANGELES, March 2 /PRNewswire/ -- DSP Research (DSPR: Sunnyvale, CA) announced the VIPER 6201/PCI, an MVIP DSP resource board featuring the highly acclaimed 1600 MIPS TMS320C6201 DSP from Texas Instruments (NYSE: TXN). Computer telephony developers can now access the full potential of the 'C6201 on a versatile DSP resource. DSPR will exhibit the board March 3-5 in booth 4337 at the CT Expo show in Los Angeles, CA. The VIPER 6201/PCI is a high density MVIP DSP resource board for VoIP, voice mail and telecommunications infrastructure applications. In particular, the VIPER 6201/PCI is an ideal DSP platform for applications such as H.323 VoIP gateways, IS-136/IS-95 cellular base stations, remote access servers, wireless local loop gateways, and satellite base stations. With a powerful 1600 MIPS 'C6201 DSP, the VIPER 6201/PCI increases channel density and reduces costs of these applications. DSPR developed the VIPER 6201/PCI to augment the VIPER product line of computer telephony boards with the latest high performance 'C6201 DSP from TI. All of the VIPER products feature an industry standard MVIP interface coupled with one to 12 high performance DSPs. The VIPER 6201/PCI incorporates a TI 'C6021 and a 33 MHz master/slave PCI bus to the host PC. The 'C6201 on the VIPER 6201/PCI delivers 1600 MIPS and 400 MMACS (million multiply-accumulates per second). The flexible memory architecture of the board includes up to 1 Mbyte of SBSRAM, 128 kbytes of SRAM, 512 kbytes of FLASH, and up to 16 Mbytes of SDRAM. For communications to the host PC, the DMA driven host port interface of the 'C6201 allows high speed access to the entire VIPER memory space. As an open DSP resource board, the VIPER 6201/PCI features an MVIP bus interface that provides access to 256 full-duplex 64 kbps channels. An on-board T1/E1 interface further enhances the flexibility of the VIPER 6201/PCI. Systems developers can use the VIPER 6201/PCI as an MVIP network card and a DSP resource board at the same time, reducing the board count in the system. Single board pricing for the VIPER 6201/PCI starts at US $5,995. Corporate Profile Founded in 1989, DSPR manufactures and markets products that accelerate DSP development from design to production.
