EMBEDDED SOFTWARE DESIGN
DSP FIRMWARE DEVELOPMENT
RT-RK has more than 20 years of experience in developing DSP firmware solutions
targeted for consumer class devices for audio and speech processing. RT-RK engineers are highly skilled in both low level assembly programming as well as C-level
programming, which allows for optimal trade-offs amongst critical embedded programming variables such as: code size, data memory size, MIPS, and power consumption. Optimization of these critical variables directly leads to the shortest possible time to market with these complex technologies.
We also provide certification test suites, ready for certification testing and support
during the certification process (Dolby, DTS, etc). During the past several years we
have also enhanced our expertise by supporting the latest cutting-edge high definition audio technologies, multichannel audio encoders and other audio processing
techniques (see list).
CONTROLLER SOFTWARE DESIGN
Over the years we have developed different embedded systems based on wide
range of operating systems (Linyx, NITROS, Nucleus, TreadX, WIndows, Symbian
and Android) and different platforms:
• 8 bit microcontrollers (8051, PIC, Atmel, STMicroelectronics) for the most optimized solutions
• 16 bit and 32 bit microcontrollers used in handheld and mobile devices (ARM
7/9, MIPS)
• High-end platforms based on complex FPGA (Xilink, Altera)
• General purpose platforms (x86, PowerPC, Cell, NVIDIA) for most demanding
applications
• Dolby Atmos for AVRs
• Dolby Atmos for Soundbars with DAP
• Dolby Atmos for Compact Lifestyle
Systems with DAP
• Dolby Digital Plus
