Floating-point, array-processor boards add computation power to PCs. (product announcement)

EDN, March, 1988 by Wright, Maury

Floating-point, array-processor boards add computation power to PCs Based on AT&T's DSP32 floating-point DSP chip, DSP32-PC add-in boards accelerate general-purpose math applications on the IBM PC, PC/AT, and compatible computers. The family of floating-point array processors includes an 8M-flop, IBM PC half-card version and a 25M-flop, full-card IBM PC, PC/AT version.

The PC version performs a 1024-point complex FFT in 14 msec, an FIR filter at 250 nsec/tap, and a 3X3 matrix multiplication in 7 [mu]sec; the PC, PC/AT version performs a 1024-point complex FFT in 3.25 msec, an FIR filter at 80 nsec/tap, and a 3X3 matrix multiplication in 2.2 [mu]sec. If you develop computation-intensive applications, such as signal processing, graphics, image processing,...
