As you may have seen in our press release, some of us are down here in Miami at the MIPI Alliance meeting. We are at the demo day function, showing the ArcticLink III demonstration board running a 720p MIPI display (using the VX3B2B), as well as the Pantech phone with the ArcticLink II device with […]

Why an OEM Would Use a Bridge Chip (and Why They Wouldn’t)
Upon seeing the ArcticLink III VX RGB->LVDS demo at the recent Linley conference, a very astute attendee asked me ‘why do some OEMs use bridge chips and some don’t?’ This was a very good question, and one we’ve gotten before. Accordingly, it makes good blog fodder, so here we go… From the outset, this would […]
Pico’s: Why Our Dual Output ArcticLink III VX6 Matters
Whether in our earnings calls, or here on HotSpots, we’ve talked a lot about pico projectors in the last few months. Well…as much as we’ve only recently externally talked about them, they’ve been a hot topic internally here for quite some time. So much so, in fact, that we dedicated 2 of the 13 devices […]
VEE and DPO HD+; What’s Different and Improved
We’ve spent a lot of time in the past couple of days talking about generational improvements and interfaces, but the main selling features of the ArcticLink III VX will remain our Visual Enhancement Engine High Definition Plus (VEE HD+) and Display Power Optimizer High Definition Plus (DPO HD+). Those familiar with our products know the […]
Display Interfaces; What’s Popular Where, and Why We Chose What We Chose

QuickLogic Generations; How the ArcticLink III VX Compares and Contrasts to the ArcticLink II VX
For those who are avid readers of the QuickLogic HotSpots, the ArcticLink II VX (ALII) is a very familiar topic. As the primary vehicle for our VEE and DPO technologies, the ALII has been used by OEMs such as Pantech, BenQ, Kyocera, and others. But, like all things aimed at consumer technology, it must evolve, […]

So, Is the ArcticLink III VX Really a CSSP?
One of the questions I’ve been asked consistently since our first ArcticLink III VX press meeting is “is this really a CSSP? Isn’t it more of an ASSP?” In summary: Yes, this is a CSSP. Here’s why: Obviously there is no fabric on this chip. This certainly makes the silicon appear to be closer to […]

A couple of nice write ups from the press on our ArcticLink III VX release.
