Hello, and welcome to the first of hopefully many ‘Ask the CEO’ sessions here on QuickLogic’s HotSpots Blog. I appreciate the time that our readers took to send in questions, and hope that you find this exercise worthwhile. Now, to the questions: Q: How do we know VEE/DPO is used in a Phone/Tablet? Is there […]
On Recent Events in Japan
QuickLogic offers our thoughts and prayers to the people of Japan. While we are extremely happy that all of QuickLogic’s Japanese staff and their families are safe and accounted for, our hearts are with those who lost loves ones, and those who still can’t locate those close to them. We are encouraging donations internally to […]
Ask The CEO…
Greetings! For as much as social media sites like Facebook and Twitter can cause hours to somehow disappear from your day, they have their purposes (aside from passing time). One especially good thing that comes from social media is the ability to communicate directly with people you ordinarily couldn’t reach. Its very common today for […]
We’ve Joined Twitter
We have started using Twitter to give our customers and investors an easier way to stay updated with us. We’ll tweet when we have new blog posts and press release announcements. Since our tweets are automatically generated by a “bot,” you will not get responses from us directly/immediately on our Twitter page. If you have […]
The Future of Mobile – Observations from Mobile World Congress
Once a year, tens of thousands in the mobile industry descend upon the charming city of Barcelona, Spain. Not for the paella on Las Ramblas, nor to see the psychedelic architecture of the famous artist Gaudi, nor to escape our colder climates for the temperate shores of the Mediterranean. No – we head to Barcelona […]
So, Really…What is a CSSP?
Starting off, CSSP equals Customer Specific Standard Product. QuickLogic introduced the CSSP concept to the market back in 2007, and our efforts are paying off, as shown by the growth of this technology (we reported a 93% increase in new product sales in our last earning call). But what exactly is a CSSP, and what […]
Honeycomb Cometh…
Google’s demonstration last week of its Android 3.0 OS (Honeycomb, for those ‘in the know’) has been widely hailed as the first real shot across the massive battleship that is iPad/iOS. Naval references aside, the combination of support for larger display sizes along with graphics and interfaces designed specifically for those larger displays is exactly […]
On NDA’s and the Need for Corporate Confidentiality
The last 30 days for QuickLogic have been quite interesting; primarily so due to the fact that we announced our first VEE production shipments. We (OK, more accurately I did, here on this blog) also made mention of showing this at CES this year. Since then, we’ve gotten a number of questions regarding this tablet, […]
QuickLogic’s MDDO
Greetings! The latest QuickLogic press release detailing our new MDDO (Mobile Device Display Optimizer) software for Android just crossed the wire. I wanted to take a couple of seconds to explain what MDDO does in a little more detail. A bit of background: the Android mobile OS communicates with on-board devices (Bluetooth, displays, cameras, etc…) in standard […]
This Just In, From CES
CES 2011 for QuickLogic has been extremely successful so far, and we’re not done yet. VEE and DPO continue to be a very compelling story, and the new ArcticLink II CX CSSP platform is driving a ton of interest in the applications of QuickLogic’s side loading and secure data management technologies. And yes…we are showing the […]
