MegaChips选择S3集团的数据转换IP，用于下一代互联消费电子片上系统

DUBLIN & OSAKA, Japan-- February 23, 2016--S3 Group today announced that MegaChips Corporation has selected Data Converter IP from its Magellan family of high-speed Digital to Analogue Converters (DAC), to enable its customers to develop optimized next generation connected consumer Systems on Chip (SoCs).

S3 Group’s Magellan family of high-speed data converters provide optimal performance targeted for highly integrated connected consumer SoC’s, such as those requiring LTE-A, WiFi (802.11x), DVB or next generation DSL connectivity. The Magellan family is now available from multiple tier-one foundries and in several process nodes; these converters deliver excellent dynamic linearity performance with low distortion, while consuming ultra-low power and occupying exceptionally small silicon footprints.

“MegaChips decision to select S3 Group’s Magellan family of high-speed converters was based on the specific IP performance objectives, application knowledge and the recognized high quality delivery. In addition, their integration expertise greatly complements our development team during the system specification and chip implementation phases” said Masahiro Konishi, General Manager of Communication Dept., SoC/ASIC & Industrial Div. at MegaChips.

“At S3 Group we continue to support our customers who are at the forefront of product innovation by providing optimized performance, with the lowest power and smallest area, providing our customers with a definable market lead. We are delighted to enable MegaChips provide optimized, quick turn-key solutions to their customers, in their most advanced process nodes” said Darren Hobbs, Director of Product Management Semiconductor Solutions at S3 Group.
