   8 Blackfin Processors embody a new breed of 16/32-bit embedded processor, ideally
   9 suited for products where a convergence of capabilities are necessary -
  10 multi-format audio, video, voice and image processing; multi-mode baseband and
  11 packet processing; control processing; and real-time security.  The Blackfin's
  12 unique combination of software flexibility and scalability has gained it
  13 widespread adoption in convergent applications.
