P-Product Becomes Tensilica Authorized Software Design Center

“As we completed our first port to the HiFi 2 Audio Engine, we were impressed with the ability of Tensilica’s cores to be optimized with custom instructions for complex signal processing applications,” stated Michael Vulikh, CEO of P-Product. “Tensilica’s automated tools let engineers add instructions directly to the processor, letting companies avoid the time-consuming work of adding specialized hardware blocks to general-purpose CPUs. And then these optimized instructions are automatically understood by the C compiler, so there’s no need for assembly language programming.”

“P-Product has proven their ability and commitment to provide excellent software support for Tensilica’s customers,” stated Chris Jones, Tensilica’s director of strategic alliances. “Their expertise in wireless, as well as multimedia software, can help jump start design efforts.”
