ARM has announced at the 3GSM World Congress, Barcelona, Spain, that Renesas Technology has licensed the high-performance, low-power ARM1176JZF-S processor for the development of advanced mobile/consumer electronics applications. The ARM1176JZF-S processor will enable Renesas Technology to improve the user experience for consumers using multimedia capabilities on devices including video streaming, music downloads and gaming.
Renesas Technology, a designer and manufacturer of highly-integrated semiconductor products, has also licensed the ARM PrimeCell Level-2 Cache Controller.
This supports Trustzone technology, for a portable security solution compatible with different operating systems, the ideal platform for mobile devices.
Furthermore, Renesas Technology will be able to develop systems on a chip (SoCs) without encountering bus bottlenecks, as the ARM1176JZF-S processor and Level-2 Cache Controller are compliant with the ARM amba 3 AXI specification.
