We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "DSP functions",
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 Software supports FPGA devices from
Synplicity, which we summarised at the time by saying "Synplicity's Synplify DSP software now supports the LatticeECP2MO and LatticeXP2O field programmable gate array (FPGA) devices".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release Video platform packs in floating-point performance from
Sundance Multiprocessor Technology: "Digital Video Infrastructure Platform combines up to 11 fixed-point DSPs with up to seven Virtex-4 FPGAs, each running a floating-point FFT IP core".
In September 2007, we covered the news from Alazar Technologies
concerning its ATS9462 waveform digitiser
- take a look at Waveform digitiser offers high data rates
which says: "4-lane PCI Express waveform digitiser offers 720 MB/s data throughput to PC memory".
Take a look also at the news release from Xilinx, High-performance DSP in a low-power FPGA,
as well as Dual carrier brings PMCs to VME from Varisys,
and FPGAs deliver over 20GMACS for under US $30 from Xilinx.
