The CEVA-TeakLite-4 is the most advanced member of the CEVA-TeakLite DSP family, designed for efficient audio signal processing in high-volume, cost-sensitive applications. Founded on an efficient memory-based architecture, the CEVA-TeakLite family combines small die size and high code density with high levels of processing power.

Based on a native 32-bit architecture, different members of the CEVA-TeakLite family can perform one, two, or four 32x32-bit Multiply-Accumulate (MAC) operations, as well as two or four 16x16-bit MAC operations in a single cycle. These scalable options enable a precise balance to optimally address different target applications, like baseband audio and voice, media codecs, voice-activated interfaces and more.

The CEVA-TeakLite-4 architecture supports both an advanced set of digital signal processing instructions as well as general-purpose microprocessor instructions. The instruction set and programming model are designed for straightforward generation of compact and efficient code and the integrated second-generation Power Scaling Unit (PSU 2.0) minimizes power consumption via advanced power management (including support for clock and voltage scaling).

All members of the CEVA-TeakLite family are compatible with each other and are backward compatible with their predecessors, including the widely adopted CEVA-TeakLite, CEVA-TeakLite-II, and CEVA-TeakLite-III DSP cores. This enables new audio DSP chip designs to leverage existing applications and a large installed base of software and simplifies the migration of existing designs to a higher performance DSP core.
