TI introduces TMS320C24x, industry’s first DSP specifically designed to improve system performance, lower system cost, and reduce component count in digital motor and motion control (DMC) systems. The C24x provides optimized motor-control configurations with the integration of an event manager on-chip for applications such as heating and air conditioning systems.

1997: TI introduces the TMS320C6x, the world’s most powerful DSP generation, performing at 1600 MIPS/200MHz and delivering 10 times the performance of typical DSPs.

TI's DSP solution enabled the industry’s first-available 56Kbit modem with the modem manufacturer US Robotics. The TMS320 DSP modem chipset enables the fastest Internet access over standard phone lines for state-of-the-art modem technology via US Robotics’ x2 technology.

TI announces the successful demonstration of the industry’s first programmable DSP that operates at 1-volt and below while performing all the functions of a standard commercial DSP.

TI is the first DSP vendor to introduce a standard application program interface (API) to make the TMS320 DSP family easier to program, monitor and debug, and opens the Kilby Center, an advanced research facility, named after Jack S. Kilby, the integrated circuit inventor.

TI discloses technology for the TMS320C67x core of floating-point DSPs -- the industry's first processor to cross into the 1-GFLOPS performance range.

1998: The industry's first Real-Time Data Exchange (RTDX) ...

... development tools capability, an innovative analysis technology that enhances the speed and accuracy of DSP application debugging and saves time to market.

Announces the TMS320C6701, the world's highest-performing floating-point DSP, operating at 1 GFLOPS at 167 MHz, and introduces the industry's first DSP with on-chip flash memory, the TMS320F240, targeted at motor, motion and process control.
