Core trio boosts SoC platform
Oki Electric has enhanced its uPLAT series of integrated platforms, which lower development times of SoC LSIs, with the introduction of three core products.
More power from laser modules for WDM systems
Oki Electric has developed a trio of high-power 1480nm pump laser diode modules for WDM (wavelength division multiplexing) optical transmission.
"The ARM926EJ-S processor will enable us to develop system LSIs for main controllers for next-generation car navigation systems; for portable digital equipment, where high sound quality, various sound effects and content protection is required; and for multifunction and high-performance portable AV equipment to play video content".
Oki licensed the ARM7TDMI processor in 1995, and since then, has continued to license ARM technology to embed into Oki's uPlat, a platform to develop system LSIs.
Using the newly licensed ARM926EJ-S processor, Oki will develop the uPlat926 platform, which enables users to develop a higher-specification, higher-performance LSI in a shorter period of time.
In addition, by licensing the ARM926EJ-S processor, Oki will provide chips for high-grade car navigation systems which use operating systems that require memory management functions, as well as products that meet high-level customer needs by using the advantages of Jazelle technology which is incorporated in the ARM926EJ-S processor.
"Combining industry-leading ARM technology with Oki's expertise in the area of in-vehicle equipment and digital consumer electronics will enable developers to design compelling, market-leading products", said Takafumi Nishijima, President of ARM Japan.
"With the ARM926EJ-S processor included in Oki's system LSIs and CPU lineup, ARM will further penetrate these important markets".
