DSP Design will be launching a new range of Freescale embedded processors at Embedded World 2013 which takes place in Nuremberg, Germany between February 26th and 28th. The new product range, which offers developers both flexibility and rapid development to ensure accelerated time to market, comes within months of DSP Design’s acquisition by Season Group.
DSP Design has many years experience of designing RISC based boards using both ARM and MIPS technologies, with products successfully used by Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) operating in the Security, Safety, Medical and Industrial markets.



These latest designs utilise the ARM Cortex-A9 architecture in processors from Freescale’s iMX processor family.



Known as the Freedom-SG family of processor boards, these PCBAs range from the iMX28 at the low end of the performance spectrum through to the flagship product the iMX6Q Quad core processor.



Matthew Caffrey, General Manager at DSP Design, said: “In between these boards are the single and dual core offering of the iMX6.



“Uniquely this family of processor boards all use the same carrier board to provide real-world connectivity. The robust design uses a SODIMM connector to securely attach to a carrier board.”



He added: “DSP’s expertise lies in designing production-ready products which share the common features of low power and small form factor.



“In line with our close relationship with Microsoft, all our processor boards are supported with the Windows Embedded Compact operating system – making them ready to go.”



Since its acquisition by Season Group at the end of 2012, DSP Design has accelerated its product development with a host of new products due to be launched during the course of this year.



DSP Design also offer bespoke design services providing processor boards which meet customers’ exact specification and requirements.



This further enables Season to provide enhanced design support to its key customers in Europe – as well as expanding its capabilities to provide a range of Embedded Systems on a global basis.



Carl Hung, President for Season Group, said: “Season's salesforce in Germany and the USA is now actively promoting the DSP product line and we are already seeing significant new customer interest.



“Design forms a vital part of our vertical integration strategy and we are delighted to launch these products at Embedded World which is a well-known gathering place for engineers from around the world to view the latest developments in embedded design.”



As a vertically integrated EMS provider, Season specialises in design, complex electromechanical assembly, PCBA, plastic injection moulding, thermoforming, cable & harness, logistics and after market services. The Group provides high-quality products and solutions suited for a wide range of applications in the medical, industrial, automotive, safety and security, environmental and communications markets from its manufacturing capabilities in Canada, USA, UK, Germany, China, Hong Kong and Malaysia.
