TMS320DM8168: Looking for Audio-Focused programmable DSP and EVK Recommendations

Tool/software:

Hi TI Experts,

We are in the research and development phase of our custom ANC (Active Noise Cancellation) system and are exploring the best DSP solutions for our needs. I came across the TMS320DM8168, which seems to offer promising features, but I noticed that it is primarily targeted for video processing. Given that our focus is audio, I am unsure if this solution is suitable for our application.

Specifically, we are looking for a development environment that supports high-speed development with a DSP capable of handling audio processing at sample rates of at least 192kHz. The key requirements include:

1. A programmable DSP environment optimized for audio processing.
2. Support for high sample rates (192kHz or higher).
3. Floating-point operations for more precise audio processing.
4. Integrated AD/DA support to facilitate interfacing with audio inputs and outputs.

We would greatly appreciate any guidance or recommendations on DSP chips and development boards that are better suited for audio applications, particularly in the context of our custom ANC system. If the TMS320DM8168 can be adapted for audio, please let us know as well.

Thank you for your assistance.

Best regards,
George Kao
