Many mainstream processor applications need ever increasing levels of performance to handle higher data rates, more media services and new features such as cryptography and security utilizing a rich user interface. Since consumer demand is the main driver of product development in this application space, a big challenge for manufacturers is to reduce the cost of end products. This isn’t just a competitive issue: it is also about opening up new markets in developing countries where disposable income is much lower than in the west.。
