CEC Huada Electronic Design (HED) has licensed the ARM922T processor for its system-on-chip (SoC) solutions

Through the ARM Foundry Programme, HED will develop ARM technology-based SoCs as China continues to experience increasing consumer demand for advanced electronic products. The ARM922T hard macrocell is suitable for a wide range of platform operating system-based applications. Based around the high-performance ARM9TDMI 32bit RISC CPU, the ARM922T processor features instruction and data caches, a memory management unit (MMU) to enable support for all major OSs including Linux and WindowsCE.

The ARM RealView Developer Suite provides a fully-featured development environment for all ARM powered silicon, including those based on the ARM922T processor.

ARM IP licensees also benefit from access to the industry's largest community of third-party support through the ARM Connected Community.

The community currently consists of more than 300 ARM partners spanning the entire semiconductor design chain including providers of software, development tools, design tools and services, operating environments, training and support, and silicon and system manufacturers, covering every market application.

'ARM is the most widely used architecture for embedded system design', said Prof Wei-ping Liu, CEO of HED.

'Utilising the ARM922T processor through the ARM Foundry Programme will substantially reduce our product development time'.

'In addition, the ARM922T processor's performance, power consumption capabilities and efficiency of the software implementation using on chip memory will enable HED to offer technically advanced electronic products'.

'HED is the latest in a rapidly growing number of companies in China that are adopting the ARM architecture for their embedded designs as electronic companies demand high performance, low power microprocessors', said Dr Jun Tan, President of ARM China.

'The suitability of ARM processors for various applications, and the range of system level components and solutions ARM offers, enables companies like HED to embrace and deliver next-generation electronic products'.

This latest agreement illustrates ARM's continuing growth in China, which dates back to its first office opening in Shanghai in 2002, and which resulted in the company opening its second office in Beijing in September 2004.

In the three years since 2002, ARM China has secured more than 20 processor licences, and has developed the support of a broad range of Chinese training centres, tools distributors, design service and University Programme Partners.

HED is expected to announce its first product based on the ARM922T processor in the first quarter of 2006.
