      WHO:   Triscend (www.triscend.com) is the market-leading provider
           of "Configurable System-on-Chip" (CSoC) semiconductor
           devices.

           CSoC devices integrate an industry standard
           microprocessor, embedded programmable logic, dedicated
           system bus and memory onto a single chip. The combination
           is designed to deliver time-to-market advantages and to
           enhance product differentiation.

           Founded in May 1997, Triscend was the first to ship a
           CSoC; its E5(TM) 8051-based device family has been
           shipping since April 1999. In August 2000, the company
           began sampling its A7(TM) 32-bit family, based on the
           ARM7TDMI(TM) processor core.

           Triscend's E5 and A7 CSoC product families utilize the
           company's companion FastChip(R) software development tool.
           FastChip(R) provides seamless integration with third party
           microprocessor and EDA tools, including those from Keil
           Software, Wind River, Synopsys and Synplicity.
