QuickLogic Corporation (NASDAQ:QUIK), the low power programmable logic See PLD.  leader, today announced that they are expanding their relationship with Intel Corporation (company) Intel Corporation - A US microelectronics manufacturer. They produced the Intel 4004, Intel 8080, Intel 8086, Intel 80186, Intel 80286, Intel 80386, Intel 486 and Pentium microprocessor families as well as many other integrated circuits and personal computer networking  by providing a companion device based on QuickLogic's QuickPCI(R) family of programmable bridge controllers to connect Intel's PXA processor with Intel's wired Ethernet controllers.

QuickLogic continues to work with Intel to rapidly develop companion devices for the Intel PXA processor, further enabling Intel's push into embedded applications. Ethernet is the prevalent technology for today's wired networks. The majority of low power embedded processors, such as the Intel's PXA, do not integrate a PCI (1) (Payment Card Industry) See PCI DSS.

 Controller, required by most LAN devices developed for PC platforms. By using the integrated PCI Controller in the companion device, QuickLogic provides native connectivity to these LAN devices. This now provides designers of 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.
 access to cost-effective technologies typically only available on the PC platform.

"QuickLogic low power programmable technology provides an ideal platform for delivering PXA companion devices," said Kevin Yee, Director of Business Development. "We continue to see the market opportunity expanding for integrating Ethernet connectivity in embedded applications. By delivering these low power, cost-effective solutions, we are well positioned to address the needs of designers in these applications."

"By using QuickLogic's PXA companion devices we are able to target new segments of the growing embedded Ethernet A single-chip implementation of the Ethernet networking standard. It is used to attach devices such as environmental monitors, sensors and Webcams directly to an Ethernet without requiring a computer for connection. See Ethernet.  market," says Travis Johnson, Product Marketing Engineer in the Intel Embedded LAN Operation. "The QuickLogic PXA companion device helps us offer a more complete Intel platform solution to embedded customers."

In collaboration with Intel, QuickLogic has verified device drivers for both Windows(R) CE 5.0 and Linux. Additionally, Intel has performed system-level verification and performance testing of the end-to-end solution using the QuickLogic Mobile Application Board (MAB). The MAB is a daughter board that plugs seamlessly into the Intel PXA270 DVK DVK Digital Voice Keyer
DVK Data Verification Kit
 (Mainstone) development system. The MAB significantly reduces design time by allowing engineers to co-develop software and hardware. For more information on the MAB, go to www.quicklogic.com/MAB.

Availability

The companion device is currently available in production quantities. Pricing is below $5.00 in high volume at the end of 2006. For more information, go to the Wired LAN portal on the QuickLogic website at www.quicklogic.com/wired.
