We are the leader in multi-core DSP, with widely deployed software-defined radio products and a growing range of cost- and performance-optimized ASSP devices. With a field-proven product line that is deployed by customers around the world, we have built a global presence that includes development sites in Europe and China, and sales and support operations across the globe. Our outstanding team boasts industry-leading expertise in silicon design, wireless, tools, software and systems. picoChip has been recognized with multiple industry awards and listed amongst the most exciting technology companies by leading independent organizations such as Frost and Sullivan, Deloitte, Red Herring, Light Reading and Ernst & Young. At the Best of WiMAX World Awards 2007, our products won a hat-trick of awards Chip Design Industry Innovation and Industry Choice and we were the unprecedented recipient of three ELEKTRA European Electronics 2007 awards. A privately held company, picoChip’s investors include AT&T, Atlas Venture, Highland Capital Partners, Intel, Pond Venture Partners, Rothschild, Samsung, and Scottish Equity Partners. Our leadership team includes industry professionals with great depth of expertise and experience – both in terms of technological know-how and operational effectiveness. picoChip’s technology is currently in use by over a hundred network operators, including eight of the global top ten. We sell to seven of the top ten telecoms equipment makers: some of our publicly announced customers include Alpha Networks, AT4 Wireless, Airspan (partnered with Fujitsu), Intel, ip.Access, Ubiquisys (supplying NEC and Motorola), Willtek, Xinwei Telecom, Zyxel and a number of other major OEMs and ODMs. Our processors are the industry-standard for WiMAX basestations, and we were the first company to develop a femtocell modem. We continue this innovation with products for TD-SCDMA, LTE and 4G. Because our products deliver dramatically better performance-per-dollar than legacy processors or FPGAs, they are particularly apt solutions to the challenges of next-generation wireless systems. By backing our programmable hardware with robust, carrier-class software stacks, we deliver complete solutions that cut costs and development time, while our customers retain the flexibility they need to differentiate their products. As well as our own in-house R&D, we pursue an active policy of collaboration with leading third-party developers, and are active on standards committees and industry forums. We have development partnerships with some of the leading lights of the wireless industry, including GWT, China’s BUPT, L&T Infotech, Systems4Silicon, and Cambridge Consultants. picoChip is a founder and serving board member of the Femto Forum, and Principal Member of WiMAX Forum.
