XMOS® and Attero Tech today announced a joint reference design for audio/visual bridging (AVB) applications, featuring the industry’s lowest cost solution for Ethernet AVB endpoints. The low-cost XCore® XS1-L2 dual-core processor is at the heart of the new reference design.
The development of new standards, such as AVB, needs technology that can be adapted quickly. XCore processors allow the AVB standard to be implemented entirely in software, which shortens development times and reduces risk for A/V designs. In addition, XCore processors reduce the cost for AVB endpoints by more than 50 percent compared to alternative solutions, such as expensive FPGA implementations.
