[Terry Shultz]

Hi All,

I am glad some of you guys remember my DSP’s from Motorola / Freescale days.

Floating point DSP parts are better for Compilers than most Fixed point parts such as the 
DSP56xxx family of devices. More memory, Register sets all impact tool development.

I would say that the DSP56xxx devices my team built sure ended up in a good deal of products.

Cell phone towers, Digidesign, Line 6, Pioneer AV Receiver, Gaming Headphones and many more customer projects.

But now those days setting and I am onwards to ADI SC589 platforms for more performance and adventures.

Decent tools, DDR3 memory support and many other goodies.

just my 2 cents

regards,

Terry Shultz
