Motorola Taps IPextreme to Bring Advanced Semiconductor Technology to Market
CAMPBELL, Calif. – December 3, 2007 – IPextreme, Inc. today announced that the company is bringing advanced Motorola clock generation technology to market in the form of licensable semiconductor intellectual property (IP).
The Multiple Reference Clock Generator (MRCG) is a patented digital clock synthesis technology developed by Motorola and is now offered to the global semiconductor market through IPextreme. The patented technology underlying MRCG offers an attractive alternative to traditional analog Phase Locked Loops (PLL) for generation of on-chip clocks with a frequency range from 2Mhz to 1Ghz by providing a pure digital clock generator. It also allows for the following features not available in PLLs:
- purely digital design portable to any semiconductor technology;
- ability to control frequency and edges of clock outputs “on-the-fly” via a serial programmable interface (SPI);
- ability to deskew on-chip and off-chip clocks for system level calibration;
- deterministic, instant start/stop of clock outputs, as no “lock” period is required for clocks to stabilize;
- smaller area and lower power as compared to multiple PLLs; and
- reduced cycle time reaction to market changes.
“Motorola’s rich portfolio of patent technology has been developed over time in our labs,” commented Jim O’Connor, Motorola’s corporate vice president of Motorola Technology Acceleration. “Bringing MRCG to market for licensing is an example of how Motorola’s investment in creating valuable technology can be monetized and leveraged by companies all over the world.”
Warren Savage, president and CEO, IPextreme added, “MCRG is a unique and differentiated IP that will provide our customers doing advanced semiconductor design a technology that will differentiate their chips from competitors using older clock generation technology.”
