XMOS Semiconductors
Gigabit endpoint
XMOS has announced that it will provide support for Gigabit Ethernet AVB networking.
The XMOS Gigabit endpoint implementation supports AVB applications including high-speed streaming of up to 72 channels of audio traffic over Ethernet to networked electronic devices.
As demonstrated at PLASA09, the XMOS Ethernet AVB solution consists of XCore event-driven processors, open-source AVB software, application notes, prototyping board schematics, gerber files and documentation, with general availability planned for Q4 2009.
XMOS AVB systems are programmed in C using freely available development tools, providing design flexibility.
XMOS offers a way for designers to implement Ethernet AVB with professional levels of quality of service.
Applications that are enabled with XMOS AVB products range from consumer audio equipment such as home theatre systems and in-car entertainment systems as well as professional audio equipment.
Other applications demonstrated at PLASA09 include USB 2.0 audio class 2.0 interfaces, audio processing and LED tile controllers.
