Ceva first to offer Dolby approved dsp core implementation of Dolby Mobile
Silicon IP licenser Ceva has announced that it is the first company to offer the latest generation Dolby Mobile for a dsp core. The move is said to provide customers with significant reductions in time to market, as well as power consumption savings.
Dolby Mobile is designed to give consumers a rich audio experience on portable devices and is optimised to enable a multitude of audio settings, including full 5.1 channel hd audio, mobile surround and natural bass.
According to Ceva, the 32bit CEVA-TeakLite-III dsp based implementation consumes up to 5x less power than today's cpu based alternatives, delivering critical power savings and extending battery life for Dolby Mobile enabled devices such as smartphones and tablets.
"The availability of our Dolby Mobile technology on the CEVA-TeakLite-III dsp constitutes a compelling solution for customers designing advanced mobile audio processors," said Patrick Flanagan, director of product marketing, Mobile Ecosystem, Dolby Laboratories. "CEVA's low power dsp architecture enables Dolby Mobile to efficiently deliver the advanced audio that consumers demand, without sacrificing battery life of the target device."
