Analog Devices to Showcase ''Performance Like Never Before'' at Embedded World 2005.WALTON-ON-THAMES, U.K. -- Demonstrations in high-performance signal processing See DSP. include new Blackfin processors in automotive, industrial, medical, e-media, and audio applications At Embedded World 2005, Analog Devices Analog Devices (NYSE: ADI) is an American multinational producer of semiconductor devices. Analog specializes in ADC, DAC, MEMS, and DSP chips for consumer and industrial goods. Analog is presently designing circuits in the 65 nanometer to 3 µm process feature sizes range. , Inc. (NYSE NYSE See: New York Stock Exchange : ADI) will exhibit a range of high-performance demonstrations representing industry-leading innovations that are driving emerging applications in the following market areas: automotive, industrial/medical, e-media/audio, and embedded technology. Visit ADI at Stand 316, in exhibition Hall 12, at the world's biggest embedded 'get-together', being held February 22 - 24, 2005 at the Nuremberg Exhibition Centre in Germany (Messezentrum Nurnberg). At this year's show, ADI will display its four new network-enabled Blackfin(R) Processors designed for embedded audio, video and communications applications, ADSP-BF534, BF536 and BF537 processors, as well as its BF566eM30 eMedia Platform. ADI will also present a variety of easy-to-use development tools, including ADI's own brand CROSSCORE(TM), as well as third-party software environments from long-time partners such as Green Hills Software or National Instruments National Instruments, or NI (NASDAQ: NATI), is an American company with over 4,000 employees and direct operations in 41 countries founded in 1976 by Dr. James Truchard, Bill Nowlin and Jeff Kodosky. . ADI "Performance Like Never Before" Demonstrations: eMedia: Demonstrating ADI's capabilities in multimedia, the stand will feature a demo of an Internet Protocol See Internet and TCP/IP. (networking) Internet Protocol - (IP) The network layer for the TCP/IP protocol suite widely used on Ethernet networks, defined in STD 5, RFC 791. IP is a connectionless, best-effort packet switching protocol. IP set-top box The cable TV box that sits on "top" of the TV "set," although it is often located several feet away in an equipment rack. The set-top box descrambles the premium channels and provides a tuner for the higher cable numbers that very old TVs did not support. , which will be running a video-on-demand service, a multicast service, and an Internet browser See Web browser. . Automotive: In automotive, ADI will be demonstrating real-time edge detection for car driver assistance on an ADSP-BF561 Blackfin processor, and a working sample of Philips' "solid state car jukebox", ripping CDs while simultaneously providing playback. Industrial: Security capabilities will be shown with an AuthenTec Fingerprint recognition system based around an ADSP-BF531 Blackfin processor, which processes the recognition algorithms. Additionally, there will be a demo of the Blackfin ADSP-BF534 EZ-KIT Lite(R) development system, showing ADI's easy-to-use development environment controlling industrial interfaces such as CAN. Another EZ-KIT Lite demo will show the Blackfin ADSP-BF537 processor running with Ethernet connectivity provided by the VisualDSP++(R) 4.0 suite processor. ADI will also have two demos for its ADuC702x family of analogue microcontrollers: a remote-control telemetry telemetry Highly automated communications process by which data are collected from instruments located at remote or inaccessible points and transmitted to receiving equipment for measurement, monitoring, display, and recording. application and a motor positioning application. uClinux - Embedded Tools: To showcase uClinux for embedded applications, there will be a demo of a networked audio/media node with a web interface, running on ADI's ADSP-BF533 Blackfin. Finally, there will be a joint demonstration between Analog Devices and National Instruments featuring ADI's brand new processor ADSP-BF537. Analog Devices and Green Hills Software will be partners at the show, and Green Hills Software will demonstrate on their booth the Blackfin MULTI MULTI Multiple (R) IDE environment, a set of award-winning tools for fast time to market. Analog Devices Presentations: ADI will also be presenting two conference papers at this year's show: 1) "Software Defined Radio A wireless terminal (phone, PDA, etc.) that is reconfigurable via software. It enables wireless devices to be easily updated to new or later versions of the air interface and allows multiple interfaces to be supported. - a new challenge for real-time software" Forum" by Jorg Kohlschmidt, Analog Devices. In session 3: Wireless Technologies I. (Tuesday, Feb. 22, 16.30 - 17.00). 2) "Use of Video Technology to improve automotive safety becomes more feasible with Blackfin Processors" by Michael Meyer-Pundsack, Analog Devices. In session 6: Embedded Systems in Automotive Applications II. (Wednesday, Feb. 23, 11:30 - 12:00). Important Note: ADI executives will be available for press interviews - in person at the show, and by telephone for any journalists not attending.
