\u00b7 hynix announced the system-on-a-chip (SOC) alliance of leading intellectual property (IP), library and design service partners to facilitate and accelerate SOC development by application specific integrated circuit (ASIC) and customer-owned tooling (COT) customers.<\/strong><\/div>\n

SEOUL, South Korea, May 15, 2001<\/strong>
\nhynix Semiconductor Inc. (formerly Hyundai Electronics Industries Co. Ltd.), an industry leader in high-quality semiconductors, today announced the system-on-a-chip (SOC) alliance of leading intellectual property (IP), library and design service partners to facilitate and accelerate SOC development by application specific integrated circuit (ASIC) and customer-owned tooling (COT) customers.<\/p>\n

SOC alliance partners 3DSP, e-MDT, FTD, LEDA Systems, picoTurbo, VeraTest, and Wipro will offer hynix customers special input\/output (I\/O), mixed-signal, micro processor unit\/micro controller unit (MPU\/MCU), digital signal processing (DSP), bus interface, peripheral and consumer cores and design services. These offerings will complement the hynix portfolio that includes IP licensed from ARM, DSP Group, inSilicon, WDC, Artisan, and Mentor Graphics, as well as library cells, analog Ips, and embedded memory blocks developed in-house. hynix will assist customers in making all IP requirement decisions quickly and easily by providing IP lists classified by verification level (product proven, silicon proven) and by making partner introductions for additional resources and expertise. In addition, partners will have free fabrication access for IP verification, as well as opportunities to conduct joint promotional activities with hynix. Easy access to more silicon- and product-verified IPs will allow hynix customers to develop better SOC designs more quickly. Additional companies will be invited to join the alliance to better meet changing customer demands and industry trends. \u201cWith competitive pricing, hynix achieved 300 percent foundry revenue growth from 1999 to 2000,\u201d said Channy Lee, executive director and general manager of Semiconductor Manufacturing Service Business Unit (SMS BU) responsible for foundry, ASIC and COT services. \u201cWe expect revenue growth to continue this year. The SOC Alliance program will serve as a catalyst to provide more business opportunities for our customers, partners and hynix. We look forward to building our partner relationships and increasing the total number of customer designs using this path to silicon.\u201d About hynix Semiconductor Inc. hynix Semiconductor Inc., with its principal place of business in Ichon, Korea, is an industry leader in the development, sales, marketing and distribution of high-quality semiconductors including DRAM, SRAM, Flash memory and System IC products.
