POLYN Technology’s Neuromorphic Analog Signal Processor (NASP) NeuroVoice VAD is an always-on, ultra-low-power chip that detects voice in any noisy background, at microwatt-level power consumption and microsecond-scale latency. Everything happens on the chip, so no Internet is needed. Potential applications include smart remote controls, earbuds, wearables, voice access, IoT, Industry 4.0, robotics, Smart Home/Factory, mobility, and more. NASP NeuroVoice VAD chip (NV-VAD 100) specifications: Features Voice detection at ultra-low power consumption Voice passthrough – Passes voice and mutes background sounds Background signal bypass – Wake Word Detection (WWD) command to activate transparent voice bypass Speech/command intelligibility in noisy spaces – Increases voice command intelligibility for WWD/KWS (Keyword Spotting) functionality in noisy environments for Smart Home, Smart Factory, Wearables, etc. Audio Interfaces – PDM/I2S Voice delay detection – 25 ms Host interfaces – SPI/I2C used for initial configuration and status readout, VAD pin Debugging – Boundary Scan and Debug unit access […]
