CEVA’s DSP Cores Power Mobile, Digital Home, and Networking Applications
Digital signal processing is a key technology that is powering many of today’s fastest growing electronics markets. Digital signal processors (DSPs) are specialized high-speed microprocessors that are optimized for performance in applications requiring repetitive arithmetic calculations to be performed on arrays of data. DSPs provide the silicon foundation supporting the vast majority of today’s electronic products – without DSPs there would be no smartphones, tablet computers, high-definition televisions, or just about any other device we’ve come to rely on.
CEVA is the world’s leading licensor of programmable Digital Signal Processor (DSP) cores andPlatforms and Solutions.
