Korea’s leading fabless semicon firms selects Sonics for mobile digital multimedia product

MILPITAS, USA: Sonics Inc., a premier supplier of intelligent on-chip communications solutions, said that its SonicsMX product has been selected by Core Logic as part of the company’s chip design for a multimedia product with HD video. Core Logic expects to ship its design by end of Q4 2010.

The selection of SonicsMX provides Core Logic a full-featured, high-speed on-chip network that simplifies SoC design. SMX provides a “socket-based” interface that allows isolation of each core in the system making it easy to integrate IP cores with different interfaces from multiple vendors. It also provides advanced data flow services including quality-of-service (QoS), error management and data security.

“We looked at a number of options for the design of our semiconductor, but none could match the optimal blend of performance and ease of integration advantages that SonicsMX could,” said Jae-Young Jang, Director of SoC Development Team. “This design is the first in what we hope is a long collaboration and will help us continue our market edge as a global leader in digital IC design.”

“This agreement with Core Logic is further evidence of our commitment to providing best-of-breed solutions for the mobile multimedia and HD video markets,” said Jack Browne, Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing. “Our products are well-suited for semiconductor leaders, such as Core Logic, who strive for design reuse, top performance and a faster time-to-market. We look forward to working with Core Logic as the company expands its award-winning product portfolio for digital consumer devices.”

SonicsMX provides multimedia device designers a tested and established solution that gives them the design edge needed to compete in the highly competitive consumer market.
