VeriSilicon Provides the Largest Number of DSP Software Offerings |
|
As product and design complexity continue to escalate, so has software complexity. Often when faced with the high costs to manufacture an IC, software development costs are sometimes easy to miss. However, when evaluating a processor for your next product line, it is essential that these software development costs are also considered.
According to International Business Strategies (IBS), SoC embedded software development effort has grown by more than 400% over the last few years. 90 nm SoCs will push the cost of software development past the 56% of the total SoC design effort it now comprises.
Several factors dramatically influence software development costs: ease of programming, scalability in processor product line, availability of third party developers familiar with the architecture and finally, availability of existing modules.
VeriSilicon's comprehensive software development tools offer a cost effective solution, with the added benefits of ease, scalability and a community of experienced third party developers to meet your software development needs. | |

Processor Scalability |
|
 As often is the case, evolving product needs may increase past the capabilities of a part in production. The ability to address the increased performance requirements in a new SoC from the same processor vendor may be difficult if software compatibility is not supported in their products. In these cases, existing software modules may have to be totally rewritten, resulting in high development costs and a potential loss of time-to-market.
This is not the case with the VeriSilicon ZSP family of cores. Within a ZSP generation family, all cores are binary software compatible, and across ZSP generation families, cores are assembly-level software compatible. As a result, ZSP processors enable an easy and quick migration path for system developers.
ZSP audio and video software components are licensable, fully-certified software suites, verified on ZSP Audio and Audio/Video Platform solutions for the rapid design of next-generation devices. The platforms support all popular audio and video encoding and decoding standards for use in portable devices such as cell phones, PDAs, digital still cameras and digital radio/multimedia broadcast receivers.

VeriSilicon Solution Partners |
|
The role of support hardware, software and services is critical in enabling customers to quickly and efficiently leverage DSP technology into their products. The success of DSP technology is reliant on a solid infrastructure that includes broad third-party support. |
|
VeriSilicon has partnered with industry-leading technology providers to give you the ZSP technology support necessary to develop competitive products faster than ever and at lower cost than developing the technologies from scratch. |
|
Comprehensive Set of ZSP Software |
|
Since the ZSP400's introduction in 1998, a wide range of DSP software modules have been ported and optimized to the ZSP Architecture. The complete set of ZSP software has outpaced other DSP processor vendors and continues to gain traction with the rapid rate of ZSP software development. The availability of these optimized, pre-verified software libraries reduces both development time and cost. |
|
ZSP software components are licensable, fully-certified software suites, verified on ZSP SW and HW based development platforms to enable rapid design of next-generation devices. The software libraries support all popular audio, video, and voice needs.
For audio applications, the following ZSP modules are now available (Click here for more details):
