New video and broadcast applications engineering labs have been opened by Gennum, allowing its customers to test and debug standard and high definition based systems.
Gennum will be demonstrating the reference design using its Frontwave algorithm that combines the outputs of two omnidirectional microphones to create a directional response and reduce background noise.
The open platform DSP technology featured in the Gennum design offers exceptional sound quality and very low power consumption.
The reference design interfaces to CSR's Casira development platform.
Gennum's Bluetooth modules are an exceptionally compact integration of CSR's industry-leading silicon with RF, 8Mbit of Flash, and crystal, and use Gennum's state of the art integrated RF thin film passive chip, high density interconnect and packaging technology.
