No Cost Overruns

November 10, 2008

Recently, as part of an ASIC licensing/custom design effort, we have found that other services vendors are costing unbelievable dollars and project time.  Why is that happening?  Because the other service vendor is way over its head in the project that they took on.

At video-cores.com we specialize in Media (Video and Embedded Audio) and Media-related cores (one SDR SDRAM controller) and as specialists we can reliably deliver Intellectual Property (IP) and complete custom designs on time, on budget and with the ability to positively influence other modules connected to ours.  In one recent case we were able to point out that the efficiency of a DDR Arbiter that our core connected to only would only allow 30% of the peak DDR bandwidth available and also presented alternatives to increase the efficiency of the DDR Arbiter to 70% through our expertise with Media Systems-on-a-Chip (SOCs).

As our Semiconductor industry starts through another efficiency transformation, it becomes not only more critical but also clearer to use the appropriate partners to help complete projects.

Be sure that video-cores.com will help your Media project be on schedule.
