SMIC and Amlogic in Commercial Production of 90nm Digital Photo Frame Chip
Shanghai [2008-04-24]
Shanghai, China?C April 24, 2008 ?CSemiconductor Manufacturing International Corporation ("SMIC", NYSE: SMI and SEHK: 0981.HK) and Amlogic Inc. today jointly announced the successful commercial production of a 90nm digital photo frame (DPF) chip designed by Amlogic and manufactured at SMIC.
The chip, used in the fast-growing digital photo frame market, is the most integrated multimedia SOC on the market. It supports multiple video and photo format decoding and integrated numerous advanced peripherals like high-speed USB and LCD controls. Due to the high integration of this chipset, DPF can perform more complex functions and the overall platform cost can be reduced, thus enabling more consumers to own their personal digital photo frame.
“Thanks to SMIC’s full range of services and support, we can have commercial production in such a short time to meet the rapidly growing market’s demand," Amlogic's Vice President, Mike Yip said. "As our business continues to expand, our collaboration with SMIC will also continue to strengthen."
“SMIC is honored to provide foundry services to Amlogic, whose rapid development exemplifies the overall growth of the consumer electronics fabless design industry,” said Richard Chang, CEO & President of SMIC. “By combining SMIC’s manufacturing expertise with Amlogic’s design capability, we are able to achieve the customer's high standards for time to market and cost-performance ratio."
