ARM Targets Chinese Design Houses with Foundry License
By Richard Wilson -- 12/17/2003
Electronics Weekly

ARM has signed another foundry license for its ARM7TDMI microprocessor core with a Chinese manufacturer. The deal will strengthen the processor company's position in the growing fabless design community in China.


Shanghai Fudan Microelectronics intends to use the core for audio and imaging processing applications that will be manufactured by Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corp. (SMIC).

"Access to ARM IP through business programs such the ARM Foundry Program, helps IC design houses in China achieve and maintain a leading position in the regional semiconductor market place," said James Sung, VP of marketing and sales of SMIC.

Shanghai Fudan Microelectronics will begin shipping ARM core-based products in Q3 2004.

According to Lei Shi, CEO of Shanghai Fudan Microelectronics Co: "We considered a number of options for our media processors, however ARM industry-proven technology was able to address all of our needs."
