OVERVIEW
NXP’s MCU-based AVS solution provides OEMs with a fully
integrated, self-contained, software and hardware solution
that includes both the MCU and an NXP smart audio
amplifier with speaker protection. It comes with all far-field
audio processing algorithms including noise suppression,
echo cancellation, beamforming and barge-in capabilities,
to enable use in acoustically difficult environments. Also
included is the Amazon Alexa client application and a
machine learning inference engine for Alexa wake word
identification.
This cost-effective, easy to use AVS implementation
