Toshiba upgrades SoCs to ARM11
Toshiba has licensed the ARM1176JZF-S processor to develop SoCs for advanced digital consumer electronics products and mobile phones
Toshiba has licensed the ARM1176JZF-S processor to develop SoCs for advanced digital consumer electronics products and mobile phones, with the first SoCs to be introduced in the second half of 2006. The high-performance ARM1176JZF-S processor, which is capable of performance in excess of 550MHz in current 90nm process technologies, features a vector floating-point unit that accelerates 3D graphics, and is the first to incorporate ARM Trustzone security technology, which prevents unauthorised access to personal information and other sensitive data stored in the built-in memory.

Toshiba has licensed the ARM1026EJ-S core for use in enabling innovative SoC applications to enhance its portfolio in the next-generation digital product market
TrustZone technology facilitates the development of portable security solutions that are compatible with different operating systems.
The ARM1176JZF-S processor also uses ARM Intelligent Energy Manager (IEM) technology, which reduces power consumption by dynamically adjusting clock frequency and supplied voltage according to the processing requirements of the software running on it.
IEM technology reduces power consumption in the processor by as much as 70%, enabling devices to run feature-rich applications without sacrificing battery life.
'ARM continues to be a strategic partner of Toshiba', said Yutaka Murao, General Manager of Telecommunication and Custom LSI, System LSI Division I at Toshiba's Semiconductor Company.
'The superb performance, high security, and low-power consumption of the ARM11 family processors reinforce Toshiba's development of SoCs for innovative digital consumer electronics products and mobile phones'.
'Industry adoption of the ARM11 family continues to accelerate in Japan', said Takafumi Nishijima, President of ARM in Japan.
'Toshiba's selection of the ARM high performance, low-power consumption solution will further expand the presence of ARM in key markets such as consumer digital electronics and mobile devices'.
The ARM1176JZF-S processor has been widely adopted for demanding mobile and consumer applications, due to its high-end performance, energy economy and rich feature set.
Toshiba's licensing of the ARM1176JZF-S processor follows last year's successful implementation of ARM1136J-S processor to meet a wide range of customer needs.
