"This is an exciting announcement for anyone interested in DSP solutions. The power efficiency of the C55x™ is just in time for the new generation of hand-held
communications devices and the C64x™ performance is nothing short of amazing. These new cores emphasize raw performance, low power and code size reduction
which open up a whole new range of possibilities for creative DSP applications. It makes me want to go out and design something."

"Texas Instruments has shown considerable vision in its commitment to DSP and to its growing impact on a broad spectrum of applications. This commitment clearly shows in the tremendous power efficiency of the newly announced C55x™ core and dramatic performance improvement of their C64x™ core. The continuing enhancement in power and performance in cores like these allows the implementation of creative and powerful DSP algorithms that the research community could only dream of before. There is
now the opportunity for many of these new and emerging algorithms to find their way into innovative, important applications today."

"TI continues its leadership role in DSP by providing the highest performing and the most power efficient DSPs in the industry. With the new C64x™ and C55x™ cores, researchers can create exciting new applications that could not exist before. The cores, coupled with TI's impressive eXpressDSP™ software and third party support, have allowed TI to once again set a new standard for DSP."

"Our research is aligned with the requirements of the Internet and mobile communications industry. The new family of cores from TI is extremely important to us for research because of their multi-functionality. They are designed to provide easy development and enhancement facilities, which would be of great interest to us in our future research programs. We chose TI primarily to ensure that we have upward compatibility for the type of systems we use for undergraduates, as well as the availability of a comprehensive set of evaluation modules, support software and the human support which is very important for academic instructors and teachers. Also important in terms of our teaching and research is the fact that there is a clear migration strategy. This ensures that the investment we make is not lost and that we can
upgrade our systems."
