Texas Instruments (TI) and software-defined network gold standard provider the 6WIND announced 6WINDGate ™ software solutions to support TI's new scalable to 28 nm multi-core processors (based on the recently introduced KeyStone II multi-core architecture). The 6WINDGate provide integrated and comprehensive pre-integrated data packet processing software suite, TI's customers do not need to invest resources to integrate different sources of discrete agreements and custom optimization design. This helps OEMs to more easily design high-performance, low-power low-cost network platform, the software can be upgraded to fully meet the application needs of mobile and cloud infrastructure.
6WINDGate software for high-end network equipment developers facing the performance, scalability, software compatibility, as well as time to market challenge to provide a proven solution. The 6WINDGate contains the full range of control surface module, high-performance network protocol stack and a variety of after the optimized extensive data plane protocol based on TI KeyStone II multi-core processors to achieve maximum performance. 6WINDGate's Fast Path architecture and standard operating system APIs remain fully compatible, can help OEMs quickly the existing application software ported to the TI KeyStone II architecture, which not only can use the TI chip network coprocessor, but also reducing time to market and reduce schedule risk.
The 6WIND Chief Executive Officer, Eric Carmès said: "We are pleased to announce the new TI's KeyStone II support for the 6WINDGate data packet processing software. 6WINDGate (TM) can solve network bandwidth, scalability and quality of service and other important issues, not only have been more than a TEM manufacturers to use the class, and now two-thirds of the world's LTE network deployment. 6WINDGate (TM) Cloud, recently released Edition solution can extend those advantages to the cloud infrastructure. our close collaboration with TI in for 6WINDGate the purposes KeyStone II framework implementation to optimize the support and look forward to provide high-performance software solutions for TI's OEM customers. "
Ramesh Kumar, Business Manager of TI's multi-core processors, said: "We are always looking for ways to promote the development of KeyStone II multi-core processors without any multi-core architecture to catch up to KeyStone II performance, flexibility and power efficiency advantages, and we 6WIND cooperation can be for our customers to quickly and easily develop high-performance application software must support. "
TI's scalable KeyStone II architecture supports the TMS320C66x digital signal processor (DSP) series kernel, and multiple high-speed cache synchronization channel the ARM ® Cortex ™-A15 cluster, containing up to 32 DSP and RISC core. Multi-core architecture to support SoC structural unit expansion, such as TeraNet, navigator of the multi-core and multi-core shared memory controller (MSMC). This extension can help developers to give full play to the functions of all the processing unit, including the ARM RISC core, DSP core, as well as enhanced AccelerationPacs. KeyStone II RISC processing functions by increasing the ARM Cortex-the A15, 4-channel cluster has been significantly improved, and half the power consumption of the traditional RISC core to achieve ultra-high performance.

• Small form factor: the high level of integration support 3 mm x4.9 mm package size, the smaller size of the terminal products.
High the integration LMP91200pH value sensing AFE can be used for the dual electrode pH Sensor in a variety of analytical platforms, fully meet the emissions monitoring, steam and water quality monitoring, chemical / petrochemical plants, and food processing and other application requirements.
Key features and benefits of the LMP91200pH value sensing AFE
• Complete the pH value of sensing solutions: AFE highly integrated PGA, the market most of the ultra-low input bias buffer of pH value, the signal protection, temperature measurement calibration, as well as common-mode generation and diagnosis circuit, you can use a single-chip connection a pH sensor;
• greater reliability and system accuracy: on-board sensor test ensures that the correct connection and function, 0.4pA (max) ultra-low bias current, improve system reliability and accuracy, there is no power supply case protection of the pH value of electrode;
• Wide operating range: 1.8V to 5.5V operating voltage of -40 degrees Celsius to 125 degrees Celsius operating temperature (within the scope of work to ensure that the low pH buffer input bias current), you can achieve maximum flexibility;
• Small form factor: the high level of integration to 5 mm x6.4 mm package size, smaller size of the terminal products.
TI provide a complete signal chain for sensing applications can help engineers to integrate the sensor the AFE's MSP430 ultra-low-power 16-bit microcontrollers and DAC161P997 and XTR117 4mA to 20mA transmitter and other components.
