LG Semicon Develops Innovative DSP Chip December 12, 1997 (SEOUL) -- LG Semicon Inc. is the first Korean company to develop a third-generation digital signal processor (DSP), a company official said. Digital signal processors are analog-to-digital microchips that handle voice and image signals at high speeds, and they are used widely in mobile phones. LG Semicon's new chip features high-speed data transfer, at almost twice the speed of so-called second-generation DSPs, and it is just half the size of conventional chips. It consumes about 10 percent less power than the same-class DSPs developed by leading U.S. microchip makers, the company spokesman said. This paves the way for LG to secure necessary technology for developing other advanced chips, including a merged chip, which unifies the functions of a RISC microprocessor and peripheral circuits, the company spokesman said. LG Semicon is cooperating with LG Information & Communications Ltd. to promote sales of mobile phones and digital videodisk (DVD) players equipped with the DSP chip. The global DSP market, led by Texas Instruments Inc., Lucent Technologies Inc. and Motorola Inc., is expected to grow by 40 percent a year, to reach US$29 billion by 2001, the company said.

Coopie, the World changes dramatically each day, and my interpretations change with it. Over the summer, Dow 10,000 seemed possible. On November 13, I said MAYBE. Today, with all the preannouncements and disappointing earnings I say the chances are SLIM. I am not a prisoner to my interpretations or convictions. The Question Mark rules my thoughts. Each day I wake up, I subject my ideas and beliefs to scrutiny. I place myself into the void and re-examine them to see if they are still valid. I quote again from the great Sir Francis Bacon: "Doubt everything ( each day ) before you believe". Have a good weekend.
