DMP licenses GPU IP core "SMAPH-F" for Renesas Electronics' SoCs for Office Appliances

Tokyo, Japan, Jan. 12, 2016 – Digital Media Professionals Inc. (DMP), a leading provider of 3D/2D graphics and computing intellectual property (IP) cores, today announced that it has licensed the DMP GPU core, SMAPH-F, to Renesas Electronics Corporation, for its SoCs (system-on-chips) for office appliances.

The DMP SMAPH-F is 2D Vector graphics IP core which is differentiated by its robust conformance to Khronos Group standards OpenVG and by its remarkably small silicon foot print which enables DMP licensees to maximize graphics performance delivered per square millimeter of silicon area and per mill watt of system power consumption.

"We are honored to license SMAPH-F Renesas' SoCs for office appliances," said Tatsuo Yamamoto, president & CEO at DMP, "DMP has been improving the performance and area size of SMAPH-F to ensure high performance capabilities which are required for consumer products such as office appliance and digital camera. We will continue to support customer development by providing our GPU IP core and professional services which are based on accumulated experience and know-how."
