Tensilica’s Diamond and Xtensa processors are often used as control
processors. The Diamond 108Mini, 212GP, 232L and 570T fit a wide range of control processing requirements. If you have specialized needs or want to combine control and data processing, we automate the process of configuring the Xtensa processor
to get the extra functionality you need. And if you need maximum
performance, see how much faster Xtensa processors are than
all other 32-bit processors on the market.

Tensilica’s Diamond and Xtensa processors excel at traditional
CPU and DSP tasks in embedded SOCs as demonstrated by industry
leading benchmark results on the BDTI
BenchmarksTM by Berkeley
Design Technology, Inc. (BDTI). The Xtensa LX configurable
processor core achieved the highest score recorded to date
for a licensable processor core -- the Xtensa LX BDTIsimMark2000
score of 6150 at 370 MHz is 70% faster than the score for the
next-fastest licensable core benchmarked by BDTI, the CEVA-X1620.*
You can base a small, efficient DSP or a high-performance DSP
on Xtensa technology.

Tensilica’s Xtensa processors are used in a wide array
of computer peripheral designs, including printers, scanners,
high-resolution displays, wireless network devices, and high-capacity
storage, to both decrease design time and reduce design risk
by adding programmability. Xtensa processors can be used both
as a system controller and a DSP in
many designs, such as servo control. Xtensa processors can
be designed especially for computer peripheral applications
to provide high-speed data throughput. By bypassing the bus
and using the unique Ports
and Queues capabilities, the Xtensa
LX2 can achieve RTL-equivalent data throughput. Multiple
Xtensa processors are often used throughout many stages of the processing
chain, particularly in ink jet and laser printers where multiple
processors can be employed for various functions such as color-space
conversion, edge enhancement, and error diffusion.

Tensilica’s Xtensa processors are ideal for many
wireless applications where existing processor performance
is inadequate yet hard-wired solutions are too inflexible.
For example, simple optimizations let Xtensa 6 processors achieve an 11x speed-up in a GSM audio codec. Tailored instructions provided a 250x speed improvement in a Viterbi decoding algorithm. And Xtensa processors power world’s first digital broadcast-enabled mobile phone from LG Electronics.

All types of networking equipment, from SOHO devices (e.g.
switches, VoIP terminals, wireless adaptors) to enterprise
infrastructure equipment (e.g. routers, gateways, storage
area networks) use Tensilica’s Xtensa processors, most
frequently in the data plane. Data processing functions such
as filtering, coding, and encryption are performed real-time
in networking equipment. Tensilica processors are utilized
in these demanding applications due to the ability to configure
custom data paths and execution units. Some examples of Tensilica
technology in networking integrated circuits include TCP/IP
off-load engine, multi-protocol security accelerator, G.729A
codec, and high-speed serial interface. Xtensa processors
are also ideal for applications where throughput is critical
and multiple data streams must be quickly processed. One
customer, Cisco Systems, used 188 Xtensa processors in their
design of the world’s largest router.
