Reconfigurable processors optimise DSP tasks
Elixent has released the DFA1000 family of accelerators for use with standard RISC processors running DSP algorithms.
Customers can take advantage of Elixent's dynamically reconfigurable D-Fabrix array, lessening power consumption, minimising silicon area and avoiding costly respins.
"We're very happy to complete the patent application and approval process in the USA", commented Alan Marshall, CTO at Elixent.
"Now we can continue our ongoing research and development, expanding further on the ideas put forward in these patents for reconfigurability".
The newly issued patents cover: the integration of multipliers in programmable arrays; reconfigurable processor devices; field programmable processor arrays; and the method and apparatus for providing instruction streams to processor devices.
The techniques described in these patents have allowed Elixent to bring the D-Fabrix array to market, making a whole new class of truly multifunctional platform devices available to customers.
