XMOS

XMOS is a fabless semiconductor company with class leading far-field voice capture solutions and audio interface products.

XMOS Ltd. provides embedded voice controllers and audio interfaces for consumer electronics. The unique xCORE architecture and highly differentiated software delivers class-leading far field voice capture and the highest quality digital multi-channel audio interfaces. VocalFusion voice controllers position XMOS at the interface between embedded voice processing, biometrics and artificial intelligence, with flexible integration to automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems. XVF3000 - Released in June 2017. The XVF3000 family of voice processors provide class-leading far-field voice capture using arrays of MEMS microphones. With optional support for Sensory’s TrulyHandsfree technology, the XVF3000 family provides an always-on voice interface in a single device. The VocalFusion 4-Mic Kit for Amazon AVS, based on XVF3000, was qualified for Amazon Voice Services in October 2017. xCORE-VOICE - Released in October 2016. xCORE-VOICE processors are a combination of one or more xCORE-200 processors with software that captures multiple microphone signals, applies acoustic DSP to each signal, and outputs the aggregated signal over standard interfaces, all in a single device. xCORE-AUDIO - Released in April 2016. xCORE-AUDIO are audio-specific processors built on xCORE-200 technology, aimed at high-resolution consumer audio and multichannel professional audio applications. xCORE-200 - Released in March 2015. xCORE-200 devices can execute dual-issue code at 500 MHz, have up to four tiles, with each tile executing up to eight concurrent tasks. The devices are packaged with options for embedded flash, embedded USB PHY, and an embedded RGMII interface. xCORE XS1-L - Released from 2008. The first family of multicore microcontrollers, with up to two tiles executing at up to 500 MHz. There are options for embedded USB, ADCs, DC-DC converters, or an integrated ARM Cortex-M3. The company was founded in 2005 and is based in Bristol, UK.
