Product lowers third-generation-device-development costs

摘要

Using Analog Devices' ADSP-TS101S DSP to develop third-generation base-station systems costs significantly less than using a DSP for symbol-rate processing or using ASICs and FPGA implementations for chip-rate processing. The TS101S includes instructions for chip-and symbol-rate processing that supports an all-software approach, eliminating the need and cost for ASICs or FPGAs and separate memories for chip- and symbol-rate processing. A software implementation simplifies migrating between evolving and major third-generation modes, such as wide-bandwidth CDMA/UMTS, cdma2000 and TDS-CDMA. The TS101S comes in a 19 × 19-mm PBGA package, dissipates less than 1W, and requires no heat sinks or forced-air cooling.
