Lucent-Motorola DSP alliance unveils first core

ATLANTA -- The alliance between Motorola Inc. and Lucent Technologies Inc. to develop a new digital signal processor (DSP) core is ready to take on market leader Texas Instruments Inc. with a high-performance core that it claims outperforms TI's C6x family in a low-power package with high compiler efficiency.....

.....StarCore is setting its sights on TI's dominance in DSPs. Brooks points out that together Lucent and Motorola have 36% of the market compared to TI's 35% (according to Dataquest). But he is also keeping an eye on the Intel-Analog Devices alliance formed in February.
"We take that as a complement," Brooks said. "But our collaboration began long before the announcement, and we will have products out this year. They're still talking about what they're going to do." (see March 16 story).

...."One of the most active, healthy and expanding segments in the semiconductor market is DSPs," said Tom Starnes, principal analyst for the Embedded Microcomponents Worldwide research program at Dataquest in San Jose. Dataquest projects a 22% compound annual growth rate for DSPs through 2002, with the market growing to nearly $10 billion, he added.

Looks like there is plenty of oppertunity to get some market $$. Go ADI.
