About Boston Circuits, Inc. Boston Circuits, Inc. (BCI) is 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. , specializing in multi-core embedded processors and software for next generation home and business multimedia devices. Using a new architecture called Grid on Chip(TM), processor cores are embedded Inserted into. See embedded system. into an on-chip network to enhance performance, reduce power consumption, and provide improved scalability. The gCORE(TM) family of multi-core processors integrates up to 16 processor cores with system components such as PCI Express A high-speed peripheral interconnect from Intel introduced in 2002. Note that although sometimes abbreviated "PCX," PCI Express is not the same as "PCI-X" (see PCI-SIG and PCI-X for comparison). As a result of the confusion, "PCI-E" or "PCIe" is the accepted abbreviation. and USB USB in full Universal Serial Bus Type of serial bus that allows peripheral devices (disks, modems, printers, digitizers, data gloves, etc.) to be easily connected to a computer. , giving customers an economical and flexible alternative to traditional embedded hardware. BCI's gCORE processors are supported by the company's patent pending GridWare(TM) technology, which simplifies software development by automatically distributing tasks to the multiple processor cores on the chip. Together, gCORE and GridWare comprise a powerful platform that fulfills the needs of multimedia devices in the Internet age. For more information, please visit http://www.bostoncircuits.com. |
