We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "DSP applications",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Electronicstalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Package deal cuts FPGA costs from
Xilinx, which we summarised at the time by saying "System Generator allows designers to graphically capture and verify high-performance DSP subsystems in Simulink using a Xilinx-optimised DSP blockset".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release ARM tools are optimised for Atmel MCU from
Crossware Products: "Development suite allows developers to rapidly exploit the advanced features of the Atmel AT91SAM9263".
In October 2007, we covered the news from Tundra Semiconductor
concerning its Switch cuts baseband costs
- take a look at Switch cuts baseband costs
which says: "Tundra Semiconductor's Tsi620 lowers 3G baseband costs by bridging Rapid IO-based DSP clusters to low-cost embedded processors and FPGAs".
Take a look also at the news release from picoChip Designs, Indian designers support wireless development,
as well as DSP platform offers low-cost solution from Xilinx,
and Audio software is optimised for Blackfin from Spirit DSP.
