System on Chip ( SoC )

Today's mobile phones have more processing power than typical desktop computers of the last millennium. Even the Portable Media Players (PMPs) have more sophisticated processors than the revolutionary Pentium processor launched 15 years back. On top of that, mobile phones, PMPs and other handheld devices are getting smaller and thinner with increasing battery life. So, what makes these new generation handheld devices tick? Ticking at 200MHz or more, these devices are powered by a small silicon chip -the size of about 10mm x 10mm, which contains almost all components of a powerful computer including processor core, memory controller, interrupt controller, timer, multimedia co-processors or digital signal processor (DSP) etc. This silicon chip, along with the software running on it, is called a System-on-Chip or SoC. We use a cutting-edge technology for development of electronics and devices based on Systems-on-Chip (SoC) from the leading semiconductor manufacturers such as Intel, Texas Instruments, Atmel, Sharp, and NetSilicon. This breakthrough technology allows creating competitive products with rich functionality while saving your time-to-market and expenses. Electronic device development with a new functional level based on MCU or DSP require significant amount of resources and a highly qualified team of hardware engineers, often resulting in failing to fit into project time frame. loading..
