Vivante Corporation Signs 15th GPU Licensee
Vivante Corporation’s 2D and 3D GPU IP cores are designed specifically for embedded applications, from smart phones to Internet-enabled high-definition home entertainment displays. Vivante is a privately held company backed by U.S. and Asian investment funds and includes Fujitsu Limited (TSE: 6702.T) as a corporate investor via its corporate venture capital fund.
Vivante’s graphics technology is differentiated by its robust conformance to Khronos Group standards OpenVG and OpenGL ES 2.0/1.1 and by its remarkably small silicon footprint which enables Vivante licensees to maximize graphics performance delivered per square millimeter of silicon area and per milliwatt of system power consumption. High-performance, silicon-efficient GPU technology with low system power consumption is a key differentiator for fabless semiconductor companies addressing the growing consumer appetite for 3D graphical user interfaces, acceleration of Internet standards like Flash, as well as gaming on handheld and home entertainment platforms.
“Licensing Vivante GPU’s to 15 SoC companies to power their next generation products validates the strategic importance of the unique, low power graphics technology Vivante delivers to the consumer electronics market,” said Wei-Jin Dai, President and CEO of Vivante Corporation.
