Sounds a bit like FPGA's on steroids. This will be relevant to a lot of network infrastructure companies that need to customize processors for data manipulation. I'd guess little impact on audio - DSP chips are already fully programmable.

Bev, those chips look great. We will probably see them in all kinds of devices from 88-key keyboards to stompboxes to digital mixers to Apple computers. In short, everything.

You may want to keep your eye on a few of the A-to-D and D-to-A leaders like AKM and Burr-Brown. They have now, or soon will have, 384Khz chips.

What would be cool is if you had a chip that did this plus Sony's SACD. A do-any-format-you-can-thow-at-it chip.

Again. AKM and Burr-Brown. Watch 'em!
