Silan Licences ARM926EJ-S Processor For High-End Portable Entertainment Devices
Rapidly growing IC design company in China selects widely supported ARM architecture for advanced SoC solutions As demand for more advanced consumer electronics devices increases in China, local IC design companies are expanding their SoC design capabilities and offering more advanced ICs to stay ahead of the market. The ARM926EJ-S processor offers flexible functionality, high performance, low-power consumption and low cost, enabling IC designers to pursue new opportunities in emerging markets. “To build on our success in IC design, we need to provide our customers with SoC solutions that they can further customize and enhance to deliver highly differentiated products across a wide range of market segments,” said Mr Weiquan Song, director of IC Design Institute, Silan. “The ARM926EJ-S processor is widely supported and adopted by the embedded industry and is an ideal choice for our advanced SoC solutions. Additionally, the availability of the ARM926EJ-S processor via the ARM Foundry Program helps us shorten the design cycle and time to market, making our proposition even more competitive.” “The increasing complexity of SoC hardware is making it more challenging than ever to develop and implement sophisticated embedded software applications. To address this issue, IC design engineers need to select an architecture with comprehensive industry-wide support,” said Dr. Jun Tan, president, ARM China. “By offering industry-leading products and technologies, combined with the comprehensive support available from the ARM Connected Community, ARM is able to offer Partners such as Silan the ability to deliver SoC solutions that deliver immediate value to their customers.” ARM is now the most widely chosen architecture in the embedded system world, offering comprehensive support through the ARM Connected Community, which enables designers to easily access all of the resources they need for ARM Powered system design. The ARM926EJ-S processor, which features a 16-bit fixed point DSP instruction set and supports ARM Jazelle® Java acceleration technology, provides engineers with significant savings by reducing chip area, design complexity and power consumption, and accelerating time-to-market.
