[comp.dsp] what dsp boards are available?

terry@csd.uwo.ca (Terry Cudney) (12/14/90)

     I'm just looking into dsp's (initially for speech synthesis). Can
anyone tell me what boards are available for any platform? along with
any specs/comments/comparisons you could make re the hardware itself and/or
development tools available for the board? I'm not a hardware type, but
software I can write given the specs. Thanks.

  1. AT&T offers the DSP32C board for Sun computers.
     It comes with a usable development system. An optional,
     nicer, development system is also available.  The optional system
     allows almost vanilla C/Unix programs to take advantage of the
     DSP board. As simple as typing make.

 My employer, Entropic Research Laboratory,
 offers:

  1. ESPS (Entropic Signal Processing System)
     A set of development tools that extend Unix for signal processing
     application development.  Lots of pre-built programs, and a complete
     C function library for DSP. The programs and the library can take
     advantage of the DSP board, if you want.

  2. waves+
     An interactive graphics interface for signal processing.  Once again
     waves+ takes advantage of the DSP board if it's there.

  3. Drivers for various Data Acquisition and Analog IO boards.

  All products are mature, with many customers around the world.
