CEVA named dsp licensing leader
IP licensing company CEVA has been named the worldwide leader in licensable dsp technology, according to market researcher Gartner. According to Gartner, CEVA commanded more than 60% of the 2007 dsp licensing market.
Gideon Wertheizer, CEVA’s ceo, said: “Our strong customer base, coupled with tier 1 OEM adoption of our technology, allows us to extend our market reach and grow the business to applications where dsp IP has yet to be used.”
CEVA says it has concluded more than 250 licensing agreements to date, with customers including Broadcom, Infineon, InterDigital, Marvell and Samsung. More than 225million CEVA powered devices were shipped in 2007 to the wireless handset, automotive, consumer electronics and storage markets.
