The solution comprises a complete signal flow out of the box, with features that simplify audio system customization, tuning, and deployment. OEMs can incorporate a fully featured and pre-configured audio layout with essential user controls and features optimized for automotive cabin applications, including stereo audio output for systems with up to 12 channels, as well as advanced EQ and control capabilities.
The ADI LISTN EZ-AUDIO System by Analog Devices includes AWE Tune from DSP Concepts, a fully featured automotive audio tuning system that works alongside the Audio Weaver development platform. Together, both solutions help to accelerate automotive audio development, enable product team collaboration, and make audio innovation easy. Featuring an intuitive graphical user interface, AWE Tune makes audio system customization and iteration easier with the ability to manage the entire Audio Weaver signal flow, tune multiple channels at once, create and duplicate presets, lock already-defined presets, and more.
"Analog Devices and DSP Concepts are offering players in the automotive audio market domain the strengths of the SHARC audio processor, including the integration of a slick audio flow algorithm and a user-friendly custom tuning tool that works with Audio Weaver," says Andrew Lanfear, Senior Director of Automotive Audio Processing at Analog Devices. "The ADI LISTN EZ-AUDIO System is designed to help automotive audio engineers get to market faster without compromising audio quality."
Analog Devices offers the ADSP-21562-AUTO board, designed to provide premium audio for automotive head unit applications and featuring the ADSP-21562 audio processor with a powerful SHARC+ DSP core. The embedded Audio Weaver libraries have now been optimized for the SHARC Plus architecture, including leveraging the on-chip FIR/IIR accelerators. With AWE Tune, developers have the ability to tune multiple channels at once, create and duplicate presets, lock already-defined presets, making audio system customization and iteration easy. CPU load monitoring and tuning report generation helps developers ensure that the system is capable of managing the entire Audio Weaver signal flow with adequate headroom.
All the tools needed for testing and tuning the system are included. With this single combined hardware and software solution, OEMs can incorporate a fully featured and pre-configured audio layout with essential user controls and features, ready for application into any automotive cabin.
"Analog Devices and DSP Concepts each bring a long legacy of audiotech expertise to the automotive domain, and the ADI LISTN EZ-AUDIO System from Analog Devices featuring Audio Weaver from DSP Concepts makes it easy for automotive OEMs to harness our combined innovation quickly and effectively," states Steve Ernst, Head of Automotive Business Development at DSP Concepts. "This solution is designed to assist automotive audio designers at every step, from prototype to production, accelerating audio feature development and minimizing workflow complexities and costs."
