The AD14160/AD14160L Quad-SHARC Ceramic Ball Grid Array (CBGA) puts the power of the first generation AD14060 (CQFP) DSP multiprocessor into a very high density ball grid array package; now with additional link and serial I/O pinned out, beyond that from the CQFP package. The core of the multiprocessor is the ADSP-21060 DSP microcomputer. The AD14x60 modules have the highest performance--density and lowest cost-- performance ratios of any in their class. They are ideal for applications requiring higher levels of performance and/or functionality per unit area.
