Texas Instruments Offers IP Phone Processor

Texas Instruments introduced a new IP phone processor that integrates a specialized dual-channel, 16-bit audio codec (including handset, headset and speaker drivers) and an Ethernet subsystem, which includes two Ethernet MACs and PHYs and a three-port line rate switch. TI's new TNETV1050 is based on an existing TI DSP and an enhanced high-speed MIPS 32 RISC core. It can also be used with TI's recently announced 802.3af-compliant power interface switch to support Power over Ethernet (PoE) phones. The solution incorporates TI's Telogy Software, including pre-integrated industry operating systems and protocol stacks, such as H.323 and SIP. Expected pricing for 100ku volumes is less than $15.
