Audio DSP Performs Loudspeaker Compensation January 10, 2007
Embarking as the first member of the MaxxDSP family of audio semiconductors, the
the MX5000 audio DSP employs the MaxxAudio suite of psycho-acoustic algorithms that compensate for frequency response, dynamics, and imaging limitations common to small loudspeakers used in consumer electronics. The patented and proprietary algorithms are pre-programmed into the device, eliminating the need for any DSP programming or filter design expertise. The device also teams its 24-bit audio DSP with high-performance a/d and d/a converters to provide a complete digital audio subsystem. It operates from a 5V analog power supply and a 1.8V supply for the logic core. In a 40-pin, 6 mm x 6 mm QFN package, volume quantities of the MX5000 will be available in March.
