TI celebrates 15 years of DSP Solutions leadership Fifteen years ago, TI introduced the first commercially available DSP - the TMS32010. At the time, it offered an astounding 5-MIPS performance in military and modem applications. Since then, TMS320 DSPs have progressed, to say the least. With the announcement of the TMS320C6x DSP in February ’97, applications can now benefit from 1,600-MIPS performance. From those early niche applications, TMS320 DSPs have moved into huge mainstream applications: modems, wireless communications, hard-disk drives, speech recognition, audio-video and imaging, set-top boxes, automobiles, industrial control, and navigation systems are just a few. Throughout 1997, TI will celebrate the 15th anniversary of TMS320 DSPs. Be sure to catch the next big event at DSP World on September 16 in San Diego, California.
