IDTI has been de-emphasizing its own MIPS core business.

I think this is an incorrect "assumption". MIPS is licensed technology and QED has done designs for IDT. IDT has lots of high performance MIPS processors in thier product portfolio:

Processors(from the IDT site)
IDT offers a range of standalone embedded microprocessors and development tools based on the popular MIPS® architecture. IDT's embedded processors target the highest-growth communications market segments and power applications such as DSLAMs, residential gateways and SOHO routers.

And this:
Developed for powering networking and other communications equipment, such as SOHO routers, LAN switches and xDSL residential gateways, the RC32334 chip represents the first implementation of the RC32300 CPU core architecture. Capable of performing 197 dhrystone MIPS at its top operational speed of 150 MHz, the high-performance processor also boasts of a PCI bus interface operating up to 66 MHz, a flexible memory controller, and standard general-purpose system modules, including a DMA controller, interrupt controller, and serial ports. The CPU can also eliminate the need for hand-tuning software.
At the heart of the integrated processor is the IDT Peripheral Bus (IPBus). Transparent to designers and serving as the processor's internal backbone, the IPBus functions as the glue that allows a simplified design methodology to be used for integrating intellectual property (IP) modules around the 32-bit CPU core. It supports both reuse of designs and integration of high-bandwidth peripherals and a variety of processor cores and IPs from various sources. It also provides a high-bandwidth data interface.
The RC32334 chip is housed in a 256-pin BGA package and implements boundary scan JTAG to simplify manufacturing of BGA-based boards. In 10,000-unit quantities, 100-, 133- and 150-MHz versions of the chip cost $19, $21 and $24 each, respectively. INTEGRATED DEVICE TECHNOLOGY INC. (IDT), Santa Clara, CA, U.S.A., 800-345-7015

IDT has targeted communications and MIPS fit nicely in this area.

IDT Delivers Record EPS and Revenue of $0.58 On Sales of $231 Million in First Quarter; Results Reflect Strength in Communications Infrastructure Markets

Jump to first matched term

SANTA CLARA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 18, 2000--IDT (Nasdaq:IDTI) today announced results for the quarter ended July 2, 2000, the first quarter of fiscal 2001. The Company reported first quarter net income of $62.4 million, or $0.58 per diluted share, on revenue of $231.3 million. Operating earnings per diluted share of $0.58 represent a sequential increase of over 40 percent compared with the $0.41 recorded for IDT's fourth fiscal quarter of 2000, and a 480 percent increase from the first quarter of fiscal 2000.

"IDT's results continue to demonstrate financial leverage available in IDT's business," said Alan Krock, chief
financial officer. "On an operating basis, our gross margin improved for the eighth consecutive quarter, rising
more than seven full percentage points to 57.7 percent and operating income increased by nine percentage
points to 31 percent. IDT's proprietary and limited second-source products, now about half of the Company's
revenue, contributed significantly to our improved margins. These products provide margins in excess of the
Company average and provide opportunity for further margin expansion."

The Company recorded revenue growth of more than 17 percent, compared to the immediately prior quarter,
and greater than 50 percent compared to the corresponding quarter of the preceding fiscal year. For the
quarter, products sold into communications markets continued to account for more than 70 percent of revenue.
The Company posted record bookings for the third consecutive quarter and customer acceptance and
design-in activity for all of IDT's communications ICs continued at a strong pace.

"I continue to be pleased with the progress IDT is making towards delivering improved results," said Jerry
Taylor, president and chief executive officer. "While we are benefiting from strong market demand, IDT's
strategic customer relationships and new product acceptance across all product lines are key factors in this
quarter's record results. As an example, some new families of FIFOs, dual-ports and other communications
ICs are posting quarter-on-quarter revenue increases significantly in excess of the Company average."

Q1 Highlights

"IDT kicked off FY01 with continued focus on delivering more communications-specific products for its
networking and telecommunications customers," said Dave Cote, vice president of communications ASSPs
and worldwide marketing. "With an excellent flow of new product introductions, we continue to offer customers
the broad array of devices they need for their next-generation applications."

Q1 product highlights include:

-- IDT continued to strengthen its position in multi-port

products with the industry's fastest and highest-density true

dual-ports. The new x36 dual-ports have densities as high as 4

Mbits and run at speeds up to 166 MHz. These products are

aimed at meeting the needs of high-speed switching

applications in telecommunications, data communications and

storage area networks (SANs).

-- The RC32334 integrated embedded processor, announced in May

2000, is the first in a family of integrated processors

targeted at communications applications. Based on the RC32300

architecture, this processor lays the groundwork for a family

of integrated processors designed to power the increasing

array of networking and communications applications.

-- In April 2000, IDT introduced a new family of Time Slot

Interchange (TSI) Switch products, which have application in

emerging Voice-over-IP solutions. IDT began sampling TSI

Switches last quarter and shipped first production revenue of

these products in the first quarter of fiscal 2001.

-- In addition to strong acceptance among IDT's largest

communications customers, emerging companies choose IDT

products for their leading-edge applications. As an example,

PixStream, a leading developer of video head-end solutions for

telephone companies, selected a variety of IDT communications

ICs, including SwitchStar(TM) switching devices, board-level

networking devices and communications memories for its digital

video networking systems.
