Abstract
INTRODUCTION
In our past digital signal processing (DSP) market studies, the titles have
always included the term "DSP Chip" in the title. Note that this new study
title refers to "DSP Silicon," instead. The reason is that DSP, as a
technology, has become the victim of its own success.
DSP technology is the driver for virtually all of our modern communications
and consumer electronic products. Moreover, DSP is pervasive in industrial and
even military electronics. However, the days of the stand-alone, off-the-shelf
"DSP chip" are waning as "systems on chip" (SoCs) are becoming the norm in the
semiconductor industry. Those SoCs, usually classified as ASSPs
(application-specific standard products) for a specific vertical market, like
cellphones or ASICs (application-specific integrated circuits) for a specific
customer or unique application.
These SoCs employ one or more DSP cores along with conventional RISC
processors and peripheral circuitry. This report is an in-depth study of both
the dynamics and the metrics of the market for both off-the-shelf DSP chips
and DSP-centric chips that are often sold under other names.
Without DSP technology, there would be no digital cellphones and there would
be no MP3 audio players, no personal media players (PMPs), digital cameras and
no HDTV. For wireline communications, even the current worldwide
circuit-switched telephone system is based on DSP, but most of it hidden in
telephone central offices. With the growing trend toward packetswitched
telephony (read: VoIP), DSP-based telephone chips have also migrated to the
home. And virtually all human access to the Internet requires DSP technology
through modems. Those modems may be dial-up, DSL, wireless or cable types, so
the DSP pervasiveness in communications is inescapable.
In personal computers, the impetus to put multiple X86 processor cores on a
die for desktops and laptops is not driven by the need to make word processors
run faster, but to improve communications (read: Internet access) and the
multimedia experience (read: audio and video).
Think, does MS Word run any faster today than five years ago? To provide the
necessary DSP (and graphics) functionality, Intel first provided the MMX
(MultiMedia eXtensions) circuitry to early Pentium"! processor chips. MMX has
since been replaced with increasingly capable SSE (Streaming SIMD Extensions)
circuitry, with SSE4.2 capability offered with Intel' s upcoming Nehalem
processors. So, in that sense, Intel is a strong proponent of DSP technology,
but for corporate image reasons will never use that terminology.
Although the traditional general-purpose (off-the-shelf) programmable DSP chip
market is dominated by four companies (Analog Devices, Freescale
Semiconductor, LSI Corp. and Texas Instruments), those general-purpose chips
constitute only about a tenth of the overall "DSP silicon" market. The bigger
chip market is for embedded DSP chips from over 100 vendors and realizable in
several forms that we analyze in this report. We also profile many of those
vendors of embedded DSP products in Chapter 20 of this report. Collectively,
both generalpurpose DSP chips and embedded DSPs constituted a $27 billion
market in 2008.
Digital wireless communication continues to be the biggest single market for
DSP silicon, with cellphone shipments reaching some 1.2 billion units in 2008.
Most of these programmable DSPs for wireless are application-specific standard
products (ASSPs) or customized logic based on DSP cores. That is, they differ
from their more generic off-the-shelf cousins in that they are designed
specifically for the wireless market and would be unsuitable for, say, disk
drive control.
Hard disk servo controllers consist of either discrete DSP chips or DSP-based
ASSPs with shipments of over 500 million units in 2008. Compared to the PC
market of just over 260 million units in the same year it is clear that DSP is
a big market. On the heels of the PCs are MP3 & Personal Media Players
(MP3/PMP) based on DSP technology that passed 180 million units in 2008.
