In addition, the software is fully field upgradable (SUOTA), and our DECT / CAT-iq software roadmap ensures fast migration when new standards are released. Multilingual text to speechsoftware Dialog s powerful text to speech software engine converts any text data into spoken words. This software has been optimised for interpreting names and is ideal for adding a spoken caller ID facility to your application. The engine delivers a very clear and natural-sounding voice. You can choose from a number of languages and dialects. Audio enhancements We offer a range of audio enhancement software that can be run on our embedded DSPs. This allows you to deliver the highest audio quality, tailored to the specific needs of your application. Options include: PAEC: a frequency-domain perceptual acoustic echo canceller AEC: a time-domain acoustic echo canceller Vocal clarity: a pseudo-wideband extension for narrowband applications Text to Speech Audio Tuning DECT / CAT-iq software development environment (image) 5 5

Development tools Dialog s solutions come with all the support needed to bring products to market quickly. The extensive range of support includes tools developed by Dialog as well as third-party vendors. Development kits and reference designs Streamline your product creation process and accelerate your time to market with our comprehensive selection of development kits and reference designs. Reference designs act as an example for your application or system, while development kits comprise all necessary hardware, protocol software and application development tools. DSP tuning tool Dialog offers an easy-to-use DSP tuning tool that allows for the optimisation of a product s audio performance.

Releases DECT DECT 6.0 Korean DECT CAT-iq Japanese DECT Indian DECT Description Since the release of the standard in 1992, Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications (DECT) has become the global standard for digital cordless telephony. It operates in the licensed but royalty-free 1.9 GHz frequency band. Employing both FDMA and TDMA, it maximizes the use of the available radio section while dynamic channel selection ensures reliable transmission. As a result, it offers high voice quality, raw data rates up to 1 Mb/s and secure, interference-free communication supporting networks with large numbers of users. Launched as a new US digital cordless telephony standard in January 2006, DECT 6.0 has been successfully positioned as the interference-free wireless communication technology for homes and small-to-medium enterprises. It has been allocated its own dedicated frequency band (1920-1930 MHz) to avoid interference with legacy products. Besides the quiet, clean spectrum, DECT 6.0 offers solid security standards, ensures private conversations and provides a better range than 2.4 GHz or 5.8 GHz phone systems at equal output power levels. The Korean DECT standard was launched in January 2007, using frequencies from 1.786 GHz to 1.803GHz. Dialog s DECT single chips can be used in this frequency band without modifications, simply by re-programming the radio. The complete range of Dialog baseband ICs is directly available to build a complete portfolio of phones. Based on the regulative rules of the mature and reliable DECT standard and bringing together broadband internet and telephony, Cordless Advanced Technology internet and quality (CAT-iq) was released in December 2006. CAT-iq supports upcoming and exciting consumer products offering innovative features for wireless home communications and entertainment. The Japanese DECT standard aims to enable more economical radio communication systems and more efficient use of the radio spectrum. It operates in the 1900 MHz band currently used by PHS systems, and incorporates carrier sense technology to avoid collision and interference allowing multiple radio systems to co-exist in the same band. A proposed standard for DECT in India. The proposal is based on allocating spectrum in the 1880 1930 MHz band for unlicensed DECT services. debugger, and a number of code libraries, as well as an assembler for DIP and DSP co-processors in our cordless telephony hardware. GNU Toolset The GNU toolset for the CR16C/C++ supports all CR16 based products and consists of a C/C++ compiler, assembler and a linker, based on GCC 4.5.1.
