System Solutions for Rapid Development

Infinite Algorithms has developed numerous prototypes, reference designs and development platforms. Our reference designs enable a systems engineer to quickly proceed to a final circuit design and layout. Our development platforms enable the rapid development of a working prototype with the sound quality of the end product. The entire electronics can be housed inside a sleek sound bar with a simple redesign.

PC-based System Development Tool Kit

Figure 3 is a screen shot of the GUI of our System Development Tool Kit. The software is installed in a PC and commands are sent through a USB dongle that connects to the FPGA board. This tool kit enables a systems engineer to fine-tune the FPGA board settings for each of the 56 BIQUAD parametric EQ filters and the level controls for each of the 8 input channels.

16-speaker array for home theater

Figure 6 shows a 16-speaker array that meets the high performance requirements of a high-end home theater system. It employs 16 two-inch speakers with 0.5” spaces between them, for a total width of 42”, which is approximately the width of most 46” LCD TVs. It reproduces a wide bandwidth with flat frequency response and low distortion.
