Ambric Establishes Silicon Valley-Based Sales Office for Western North America.New Sales Team Led by Jack Koplik, Western Area Director BEAVERTON, Ore. -- Ambric([R]), Inc., a fabless semiconductor company A fabless semiconductor company specializes in the design and sale of hardware devices implemented on semiconductor chips. It achieves an advantage by outsourcing the fabrication of the devices to a specialized semiconductor manufacturer called a semiconductor foundry or "fab. that is shipping the world's first teraOPS-class chip that makes massively parallel See MPP. software development practical for complex embedded systems Embedded systems Computer systems that cannot be programmed by the user because they are preprogrammed for a specific task and are buried within the equipment they serve. , announced that it has established a sales office based in Cupertino, Calif. This office will be led by Jack Koplik, western area director, and supported by a local staff of field application engineers. Ambric is a privately-held fabless semiconductor company headquartered in Beaverton, Ore., with funding from ComVentures, OVP OVP Originalverpackt (German: original packaging) OVP Over Voltage Protection OVP Ostvorpommern (German number plate area code) OVP Originalverpackung (German) Venture Partners, and Northwest Technology Ventures. "Ambric is very pleased to be expanding its sales organization with the addition of a proven sales leader like Jack Koplik," said Jim Souers, director of sales at Ambric.

North American cattle tick see boophilusannulatus. sales office. He successfully built that office, developing a number of qualified customer leads and sales for the company's field-programmable gate array (hardware) field-programmable gate array - (FPGA) A gate array where the logic network can be programmed into the device after its manufacture. An FPGA consists of an array of logic elements, either gates or lookup table RAMs, flip-flops and programmable interconnect wiring. (FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) A type of gate array that is programmed in the field rather than in a semiconductor fab. Containing up to hundreds of thousands of gates, there are a variety of FPGA architectures on the market. ) intellectual property (IP) products. Koplik has more than 25 years of experience in all phases of IP licensing, semiconductor sales, and marketing management with companies including Atmos/MoSys, Vweb Corporation, and CompCore/Zoran. Koplik holds a bachelor's degree in computer science engineering from San Jose State University and a Bachelor of Science Noun 1. Bachelor of Science - a bachelor's degree in science BS, SB bachelor's degree, baccalaureate - an academic degree conferred on someone who has successfully completed undergraduate studies degree in business administration from the University of Phoenix. About Ambric, Inc. Ambric is a fabless semiconductor company that is shipping the world's first teraOPS-class processor and tools that make massively parallel software programming practical for complex embedded systems. The company's highly scalable, massively parallel processor arrays (MPPAs) deliver performance that is more than an order of magnitude A change in quantity or volume as measured by the decimal point. For example, from tens to hundreds is one order of magnitude. Tens to thousands is two orders of magnitude; tens to millions is three orders of magnitude, etc. higher than high-end DSPs. The price-performance exceeds that of FPGAs on complex applications while enabling faster, easier development in software. Ambric products help companies' accelerate time-to-market for their solutions while slashing their system development costs. Established in 2003 and headquartered in Beaverton, Ore., Ambric has received funding from ComVentures, OVP Venture Partners, Northwest Technology Ventures, and private investors.
