Thanks for the clip on DSP timing. This came in my mailbox while I was away. I'll have to check to see if the release came out as indicated: The full text of any article is available at: ti.com. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- What's New Abstracts: DSP Solutions: -------------- New Low Power TMS320C54x DSPs Double Performance and Lower Price Barriers On September 28, TI will announce two new power-efficient, ultra-small devices that provide new levels of performance and affordability for designers of single-channel, end- user terminal systems and multi-channel infrastructure equipment. At 200 MIPS, the new TMS320C5420 with 200K words of RAM, is the most highly-integrated, fixed-point DSP available for high performance applications with low power consumption and small space requirments. The new TMS320C5402, at $5 per 100 MIPS, provides designers with a powerful and cost effective solution creating new opportunities for telephony applications of the future. ti.com tm Advanced Bus (1394, PCi, USB): ------------------------------ Comdex '98 As part of Comdex '98, you're invited to join Texas Instruments on Nov. 16-19 at the Rio Suites Hotel and Casino to see the latest innovations from 1394, PCI, and ADSL Broadband Access Solutions. ti.com Mixed Signal and Analog: ------------------------ New Technical Documents for UARTS DATA SHEET, TL16C754, QUAD UART WITH 64-BYTE FIFO ti.com New Technical Documents for ADVANCED BUS SOLUTIONS USER'S GUIDE, HPC3130 PCI HOT PLUG CONTROLLER EVM GUIDE ti.com Analog and Mixed-Signal Technologies Pave the Way for xDSL ti.com New High-Side FET Pre-Driver and 8-bit Shift Register Devices from Texas Instruments Increase System Reliability DALLAS (Sept. 21, 1998) -- Designers of products that demand high reliability, such as automotive and industrial control systems, can improve the dependability of their equipment using new power devices introduced today by Texas Instruments (TI). The new products, members of TI's Power+(TM) family of drivers and controllers, include the industry's first four-channel high-side FET (field effect transistor) pre-driver with dynamic fault threshold generation and a low-cost l00 milliamp (mA) 8-bit shift register. ti.com ADSL Line Drivers from Texas Instruments Offer High Output Drive with Low Distortion in a Small Package DALLAS (Sept. 21, 1998) -- Two new line drivers announced today by Texas Instruments (TI) deliver ultra-low distortion, high output drive and high speed for multiple bit rate versions of ADSL (asymmetrical digital subscriber line) Internet access technologies. One of the chips is designed for customer premise equipment applications; the other is tailored to central office equipment requirements. The line drivers are part of TI's aggressive efforts to leverage its world leadership DSP and analog technology in the ADSL communications market. ADSL will greatly improve Internet access speed and allow simultaneous voice and data communications over a single, standard telephone line. ti.com Networking (ATM/LAN/WAN): ------------------------- Texas Instruments Drives ADSL into the Home DALLAS (Sept. 21, 1998) -- Texas Instruments (TI) (NYSE:TXN) announced today it is accelerating the implementation of ADSL high-speed remote access technology with the release of a complete personal component interconnect (PCI) client side solution. This optimized chipset will deliver a higher performing and programmable PCI solution with industry-leading central office equipment connectability. ti.com
