Faraday USB IP Successfully Cracks into Mass Storage, Multimedia, and Communication Markets
Hsinchu, Taiwan -- March 6, 2007 -- Faraday Technology Corporation (TAIEX: 3035), a leading ASIC and silicon IP provider, today announced that its USB2.0-IP-enabled customer ASIC shipment has surpassed 200 million units in accumulated volume. The company has also licensed its USB2.0 IP solutions to dozens of fabless companies. With competitive size, power consumption and design compatibility features, Faraday USB2.0 IP solutions have continued to expand in the market, covering almost all hot applications in mass storage, multimedia, and communication sectors. When combined with other IPs such as RISC CPU, DSP, Serial ATA, and Ethernet in Faraday's broad IP portfolio, Faraday's USB2.0 PHYs and controllers deliver a complete, low power and small-die-sized solution for SoC designs.
Faraday's USB 2.0 OTG PHY solution is compliant with UTMI+ Level 3 standard. The USB OTG PHY and Controller IP are silicon proven in UMC 0.25µm, 0.18µm, 0.13µm, and 90nm processes, while the 65nm USB OTG PHY IP will be available in August 2007. To ensure an easy start, Faraday provides customers with a complete developing environment which includes EV Boards, software, data sheets, and application notes.
“The 200 million unit shipment and wide acceptance milestones underscore the value that Faraday has delivered to ASIC and IP customers over the years,” said Dr. George Hwang, vice president of RD & Overseas Business at Faraday. “Starting from defining the USB IP architecture, Faraday has put enormous emphasis on design compatibility and flexibility. More importantly, Faraday is committed to porting standard interface IPs to advanced manufacturing processes to keep customers competitive along their products' life cycle.”
“In addition to the performance of Faraday's USB IP, we are impressed by their in-time service, which helped us a lot while we encountered ESD issues. We do appreciate Faraday's effort and expect a closer relationship,” said Novatek.
“PC-Camera is our key product line, so we take intensive survey in choosing the USB IP vendor. We are glad we chose Faraday since their solution perfectly matches our need, especially in terms of the compatibility and the delivery schedule. Also, it means a lot that they have good progress in the advanced processes, which is quite important for our continuous cooperation,” said PixArt.
