Aspex Semiconductor is a fabless semiconductor company developing high-performance, software programmable “Extreme Processors” based on our 7th generation patented ASProCore™ architecture.
When used in demanding image- and signal-processing applications, our Linedancer™ processors deliver the performance levels traditionally associated with dedicated hardware implementations, but with dramatically reduced cost and time-to-market. Unlike expensive FPGA technology, Linedancer brings customers all the benefits of a software-programmable product.
Aspex’s Extreme Processors deliver business advantage to our customers through:
With more than 200 billion operations per second, Linedancer outperforms even the fastest DSPs for demanding applications such as video compression. Multiple Linedancer devices can be cascaded together to deliver whatever performance and memory bandwidth your application needs.
With an industry-standard software development environment running under Linux or Windows, you can have your application up-and-running in days or weeks, rather than months or years.
For software developers wishing to take advantage of the power of Linedancer in a standard PC environment, Aspex offers the Accelera PCI-X card as a fast route-to-market for accelerated software applications.
Aspex’s Linedancer chips are manufactured by Philips Semiconductor. Philips is also a second source for Linedancer, offering a full ISO-9000 supply chain and security of supply.
