Digital Signal Processors and Controllers


The Freescale DSP portfolio includes StarCore™ technology and the Symphony™ family of audio processors that bring speed and power to variety of applications. Our digital signal controller (DSC) technology combines, on a single chip, the processing power of a DSP and the functionality of an MCU. Integrated with a flexible set of peripherals, the DSC is a cost-effective solution for a broad range of industrial control applications.

Digital Signal Processors
Freescale multicore StarCore DSP devices are so powerful that a single device can replace a power-hungry DSP farm for such tasks as voice compression, transcoding and interworking. Or they can serve as alternatives to higher power, general-purpose processors, offering unique efficiency for a wide range of applications.The Symphony family of audio processors integrate sophisticated audio peripherals to help meet the demands of audio electronics system designers. They also support the latest generation decoders, such as Dolby®, THX® and DTS®.

Freescale DSC technology's combination of DSP speed with MCU control makes it the ideal solutions for industrial control, motion control, home appliances, general-purpose inverters, smart sensors, advanced lighting, fire and security systems, switched-mode power supply, power management, and medical monitoring applications. These flexible 16-bit devices are particularly well suited for electric motor control and have significantly impacted the home appliance market, spawning quieter and more energy efficient washing machines and dishwashers, for example.
