S3 Group and Amimon Collaborate on Latest Nesher Chipset
MONTREAL (International Microwave Symposium) – June 18th, 2012 - S3 group, a global independent service provider of IP and professional services to OEMs, system vendors and semiconductor companies, today announced that it completed all of the IC implementation for Amimon’s latest WHDI TX and WHDI RX Baseband ICs likely to be used for their next generation Wireless Video device. Amimon is a fabless semiconductor company pioneering wireless uncompressed high-definition video for universal connectivity among CE, PC, mobile and professional video devices.
Amimon’s Nesher chipset is their third generation baseband IC product. The key objectives of the project were to reduce the total system solution BoM, support new HDMI 1.4A features (3D formats, 2kx4k and audio return channel), optimize transmission power, increase the range of operation, support WiFi co-existence and uplink higher bandwidth and lower latency.
"Nesher is a complex chipset which proved to be technically challenging with a large amount of memory and IP integration. S3 Group was extremely professional throughout this project and treated the product as though it was their own. Through our strong collaboration with them, S3 Group was able to ensure that their implementation of our design will result in a best-in-class product for our customers.” said Dr. Moshe Meyassed, VP R&D, Amimon.
“Amimon’s Nesher chipset is the most advanced chipset for use in wireless uncompressed high-definition video. Throughout this project S3 Group brought to bear its significant expertise in implementing production quality SoCs. Our team was able to achieve a robust implementation while meeting very challenging power, area and performance objectives. We are proud to have been able to deliver the flexibility to the project that was needed and look forward to further collaborations with Amimon.” said Dermot Barry, VP Silicon, S3 Group.
