A Convergent Future Demands Blackfin-Class Processing
Analog Devices’ Blackfin embodies a new breed of 16/32-bit embedded processor with the industry’s highest performance and power efficiency for applications where a convergence of capabilities — multi-format audio, video, voice and image processing; multi-mode baseband and packet processing; and real-time security and control processing — are critical. It is this powerful combination of software flexibility and scalability that has gained Blackfin widespread adoption in convergent applications such as digital home entertainment, networked and streaming media, automotive telematics and infotainment, and digital radio and mobile TV.

Gary Hermansen, Global IP Solutions:

The performance, power, and functionality profile of Blackfin is a superb fit for GIPS' high-quality embedded VoIP solutions…

…GIPS media processing capabilities meet the highest requirements of VoIP equipment manufacturers and we are excited to be working closely with Analog Devices

Because developers today seek to reduce time to market by choosing a robust ecosystem that brings them nearer to the capabilities of their end-products, Analog Devices provides an industry-leading tools, starter kits and support including the familiar ADI CROSSCORE software and hardware tools that support other Blackfin Processors. These include the award-winning VisualDSP++ integrated development and debug environment (IDDE), emulators, and EZ-KIT Lite evaluation hardware.
