Viterbi, Complex Math, and CRC Unit

As the complexity of a system grows, so too does the importance of reliable and rapid communication between devices and control units. This is not merely about data exchange but providing timely, precise responses to changing conditions. From electric vehicles syncing with charging stations to industrial robots relaying data, the quality of communication protocols directly impacts system performance.

A high-performance MCU with a tightly-coupled fixed-point accelerator for Viterbi decoding, complex FFT, complex filters, and cyclical redundancy check (CRC) greatly improves communication performance. This accelerator can also be used for general-purpose signal processing, such as filtering and spectral analysis, expanding the function and value in the system.
