■ 1995    2D graphics Video Processor developed.

■ 1996    LSI design becomes the mainstream of work.

               Many are graphics LSIs, and others are contract designs of custom chips (mainly STM

               and ATM exchanges) for various communications.

■ 1998    Development of firmware for ATM communication board and device driver for UNIX

■ 1999    Work with the Silicon Valley venture company in the US to enhance the VLIW type DSP

               and migrate to a 0.35μm process               

■ 2000    Add a floating-point type vector operation mechanism to VLIW type DSP in total of

               1G flops or more and complete porting to 0.25 μm process

■ 2001    Began porting work to 0.18 μm process by further strengthening the same DSP (4G flops

               or more)

■ 2001    Started LSI backend design

■ 2002    Mixed signal LSI tester Introduced

■ 2002    Started Analog IP development

               VIDEO-DAC, Sound-ADC, Sound-DAC etc

■ 2002    Started 0.18μm 0.15μprocess development

■ 2003    10bit-PipelineADC developed by 0.18um process

■ 2004    1Gbps LVDS transceiver developed by 0.18μm process

■ 2005     Self-developed original 8-bit micro processor for embedded product

          Developed analog signal processing LSI for image sensor

■ 2006    Started mass-production of self-developed original embedded micro processor

■ 2007    Development of analog IP (ADC, DAC) started in 0.13um process
