To date we have had well over 3,000 replies to our 2006 DSP Survey and I would personally like to thank all those who took part.

It is probably no surprise that TI and Analog Devices dominated the general purpose fixed point DSP sector, but with over 26% of the applications citing their use of FPGA and 22% using an FPGA/DSP combination it seems that FPGA is easliy holding its ground.

The full results from the survey can be viewed online - so click more to find out which development boards are most popular, which operating systems dominate, which design software is favoured, etc

A New Architecture For Development Platforms Targeted To Portable Radio Applications by Ram Sathappan, Texas Instruments Inc, Maxime Dumas, Lyrtech, Louis Bélanger, Lyrtech and Manuel Uhm, Xilinx.

Performance, power consumption and cost are three critical factors developers face when designing software defined radios (SDR) for portable applications. In an attempt to satisfy these requirements, SDR developers consistently struggle to choose from the array of hardware and software products currently on the market. As a result, they often end up with components from multiple, independent vendors which greatly complicates waveform porting and system integration.  more>>

Transforming Performance to Safety in Automotive Applications by Brooke Williams, Zoran Nikolic, Gaganjot Maur, Texas Instruments.


Active safety and advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) are the primary focus of current efforts to implement improved safety in vehicles. Touted by automotive analysts as the top new technology for 2010, active safety and ADAS promise either increased accident avoidance or a reduction in crash severity. High-growth application areas, with projected unit CAAGRs in excess of 50 percent over the next five years include lane departure warning systems (LDWS), drowsiness detection, and night vision.  more>>
