HiPerSmart from Philips Semiconductors is the first 32bit smart computing platform to be manufactured using an advanced 0.18um CMOS process.
The vendor matrix is an analytical tool developed by ABI Research to provide a clear understanding of vendors' positions in specific markets.
ABI Research evaluates vendors on the basis of Innovation and Implementation by selecting multiple criteria related to product/company characteristics that serve as proxies for the vendors' performance in these two areas.
Vendors are assigned numerical scores that are aggregated and analysed to provide overall rankings of each vendor on the innovation and implementation axes.
For the evaluation of contactless IC vendors, relevant criteria included: product and manufacturing innovation and feature set; key roles in developing and expanding the market through industry leadership and knowledge transfer; global capacity; reach and support; vertical market focus and product adoption, as well as cross-regional delivery and adoption.
