IP Licensing

Silicon Image offers a broad portfolio of IP solutions for high-speed serial communications IC designs for the consumer electronics, PC and display, multimedia, communications, networking and storage solution markets. As the pioneer and market leader of the popular DVI and HDMI standards and an innovator and driver of the SATA interface, Silicon Image has shipped more than 100 million standards-based semiconductors. Leveraging this expertise, Silicon Image has teamed with other technology companies to bring standards-based products to market quickly by licensing its market-tested IP Cores for integration into system-on-a-chip (SOC) designs.
All Silicon Image cores are fully documented and supported by a dedicated engineering team to assure a smooth integration process. As an author and creator of industry standards, Silicon Image has invested many person-years and dollars testing these designs at industry PlugFests and compliance testing centers to assure interoperability among standards-based systems. Implementing these new high-speed serial communications standards in next-generation products is simple and easy; so is licensing a SATA, HDMI, DVI, multimedia, camera, communications or networking core from Silicon Image.
