XMOS, is the leader in event-driven processors™ for digital electronics. Their event-driven processors™ allow complete systems to be implemented in software using interface, DSP and control code.
XMOS is an enabling technology for the Open Source Hardware community. Designs, including USB, Ethernet, and SD-RAM controllers are available in an ever-expanding library of open source code. Free to download, the XMOS development tools are supported by a vibrant community of digital designers and software engineers. XMOS' processor technology is general-purpose however they have a number of application specific reference designs including audio, LED tile controllers for LED signage, Lighting and Display, digital audio transport over Ethernet and USB, and audio enhancement using in-built DSP capabilities. Key features of the XMOS processor are low cost, faster design time due to code libraries, flexibility of design, and lower overall system costs due to the functions that can be custom coded into the processor.
