We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Embedded DSP",
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 Compact MP3 player solution supports Bluetooth from
Cambridge Silicon Radio, which we summarised at the time by saying "The BlueCore Player example design includes all the hardware needed for an MP3 player in a space that is less than 45 x 60mm".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release FPGA modules to upgrade to latest Xilinx devices from
Nallatech: "Virtex-5 based rugged embedded computing family to provide customers with industry leading solutions for use in a wide range of operating environments".
In April 2007, we covered the news from Forward Concepts
- take a look at DSP growth outstrips IC growth
which says: "A new report claims the embedded DSP market will grow to US $17.6 billion in 2007, almost twice the size of the general-purpose DSP chip market".
Take a look also at the news release from Xilinx, Silicon Valley showcase for embedded DSP,
as well as Advanced synthesis products support Stratix III from Mentor Graphics UK,
and Kane supports embedded development from Adept Scientific.
