Bangalore: Texas Instruments Incorporated (TI) announced that its audio digital signal processors (DSPs) are the first embedded implementation approved with DTS-HD master audio at 192 kHz for audio quality in home theater systems. Audio/video receivers (AVRs) based on TI’s DA7xx generation of DSPs have the power to support eight channels of 192 kHz lossless audio.
Brian Towne, senior vice president and general manager, DTS, said, “The consumer electronics industry continues to demand the highest quality surround sound in home theater systems. With TI’s DSP-based A/V receivers that are DTS-HD certified, consumers will now have unprecedented audio that matches high-definition video images for a truly all-encompassing HD home theater experience.”
TI’s DA7xx DSPs or Aureus processors target a range of home theater and automotive products requiring multi-channel decoding and high-speed encoding. TI’s Aureus product line consists of a 32/64-bit floating-point programmable DSP and software solution, enabling multi-channel decoding applications.
