Developers delivering a single product have it easy. Pick a system-on-chip (SoC) microcontroller that meets the applicationrequirements, and refine the software until it works as desired. The design task becomes more complex if more than one product is in the mix, especially if the requirements become more demanding. The typical approach is to have a single-core solution across the board with more powerful processors covering the high end.
There is no question about the potential that wearable technology has to take the semiconductor market into a thriving new era of growth. A lot of the innovative devices in wearables have predominantly been driven by chips based around processor IP technologies from Imagination: most smart glasses today use a PowerVR GPU, while a large number of smartwatches feature MIPS CPUs.

SUMMARY: There aren’t a lot of companies seeking to get into the chip design business nowadays, but Ineda Systems is bucking that trend with a new architecture aimed at wearables and the data center.
(gigaom.com) -- Ineda Systems, a company building out a new type of semiconductor for the internet of things, has raised $17 million in second-round funding. The startup, which is also pursuing a data center chip design, raised the money from Walden-Riverwood Ventures, Samsung Catalyst Fund, Qualcomm Ventures, IndusAge Partners and others, including Imagination, whose MIPS CPUs are used in Ineda’s products.
Power consumption is one of the important factors of digital-IC development as component sizes shrink and insulating layers on gates become thinner. Most SoCs (System on Chip) are developed for portable consumer devices where battery life can make or break a product. To enable the adoption of advanced low-power techniques by mainstream users, there is a need for a design flow that holistically addresses the architecture, design, verification, and implementation of low-power designs.
New SoCs to combine Imagination’s PowerVR GPUs and MIPS CPUs
Sunnyvale, CA – 28th August, 2013 – Imagination Technologies (IMG.L), a leading multimedia, processor, communications and cloud technologies company, and Ineda Systems, a developer of low-power system on chip (SoC) technology for use in both consumer and enterprise applications, are revealing details of Ineda’s soon-to-be-released Wearable Processor Unit (WPU) SoCs that unite various combinations of Imagination IP cores in their ultra-low power design.
Switching from operators to home phones, home phones to smartphones, and smartphones to tablets, innovative methods of communication continue to improve and make their way into mainstream society. The next phase in communications evolution is wearable technology. Advents of it are already being seen, with big names such as Google Glass, Pebble and Nike+ FuelBand, as technology becomes smarter and developers find ways to add productivity, reliability, and efficiency into feature-rich products that we can wear.
