Abstract
Synopsis
Embedded processing covers microcontrollers, microprocessors, ASICs, ASSPs and FPGAs and encompasses a broad range of applications across each of the main end-use sectors, from cell phones and automotive entertainment to media players and TVs & set-top boxes.
The embedded processing industry is a complex market to understand, with designers having a myriad of options to consider when choosing a processor platform to use in their design. Factors governing choice typically include processor performance, power consumption, cost, development tools and availability of supply. Suppliers compete using proprietary or industry standard processing architectures for design wins. This includes ARC, ARM, Coldfire/68K, FR, MIPS, PowerPC, ST20, SuperH, TriCore, V850, x86 and Xtensa.
This study focuses on understanding the current and future market for MIPS-based MCUs/MPUs, ASICs/ASSPs and FPGAs, identifying which are the key applications for growth.
