Focus on intelligent IP containing processor(s) & firmware

Self contained IP blocks

Example: UDP/IP/Ethernet data streaming from/to a custom interface

Example: data streaming from/to SD flash cards to/from a custom interface

Example: MP3 playback from network or SD card

Intelligent Peripherals

Offload the SoC's main CPU from time-critical, low-level tasks

Example: MPEG transport demux with A/V streaming, lip sync and data filtering

Design Services

Digital circuit development based on customer specification

IP Blocks and complete FPGA designs

Fast time-to-market due to high reuse potential of components from the existing IP pool

Adaptation/Modification of availabe IPs from the pool

E.g. to meet interface requirements of the target application

Large pool of available IPs

Processors & DSPs

Overview

Other (non-processor) IPs
