ASPEED Technology purchases IP from IPextreme Core Store
(Business News, 28 May 2008 )
Ipextreme has announced that ASPEED Technology in Hsinchu City, Taiwan has purchased Freescale’s ColdFire V1 through IPextreme’s Core Store online marketplace. The ColdFire core will be used as an embedded processor in an upcoming ASIC product.
Designed for entry-level 32-bit applications, the V1 ColdFire core is a simplified version of the V2 ColdFire core. The small-footprint V1 core is designed to deliver increased system utilization, resulting in the lowest power consumption of any ColdFire MCU product to date, while offering more than ten times the performance of 8-bit MCUs.
The low-cost point of entry coupled with ColdFire’s proven track record make this core ideal for the Taiwanese embedded market.
