Silicon Labs Announces Audio Software for Automotive Radio
Published2016.12.12 06:22Silicon Labs (Country Manager: Baik Undal) has announced a new audio software product for the automotive market.
This product enables automotive radio developers to flexibly integrate advanced audio post-processing algorithms from Silicon Labs' Global Eagle Si47911/12 radio IC into audio system devices. The new software product allows developers to easily and cost-effectively implement audio post-processing functions such as tone adjustment, in-vehicle equalization, and chime generation using the Tensilica HiFi EP DSP integrated in the Si47911/12 IC.
Using Silicon Labs' development tools, developers can port their proprietary audio algorithms, design customized audio processing workflows using Silicon Labs' audio libraries, or combine their audio algorithms with Silicon Labs' audio post-processing capabilities.
According to IHS Markit, global light-vehicle sales in 2016 are projected to reach 90 million units. A significant number of these vehicles are expected to be equipped with sophisticated automotive infotainment systems that incorporate multiple tuner ICs and antennas to support FM phase diversity reception, RDS (Radio Data System), and HD Radio™ and DAB (Digital Audio Broadcast) capabilities.
The combined solution of Silicon Labs' new audio software product and Global Eagle tuner IC not only meets global demand for advanced automotive radio technology by supporting all broadcast radio bands worldwide, but also enables developers to perform audio post-processing with flexibility and power.
Silicon Labs' fixed-function audio software provides a comprehensive audio post-processing solution for all analog and digital audio functions in automotive radio head units. This audio software includes a wide range of user-programmable parameters that allow developers to configure audio post-processing algorithms for different automotive models.
