Andes Technology Joins EEMBC Board of Directors
EL DORADO HILLS, Calif. and HSIN-CHU, Taiwan -- The Embedded Microprocessor Benchmark Consortium (EEMBC) announced that Andes Technology, with its 16/32-bit AndeStar™ ISA and associated series of embedded processor core families, namely AndesCoreTM, to address the diversified application requirements of the embedded industry, is the consortium's newest member.
Andes Technology joins EEMBC as a member of the consortium's board of directors, with full voting rights on all major issues decided by the consortium, plus full access to all of the EEMBC® benchmarks.
"Andes Technology, with expertise in the areas of microprocessor design, system architecture, operating system, software toolchain development, and SoC VLSI implementation, will greatly benefit the evolution of EEMBC's benchmark suites, particularly those that are focused on mobile, networking, multimedia, and embedded systems in general," said EEMBC President Markus Levy. "We welcome Andes Technology to the consortium, and we look forward to having their participation in our active working groups."
"Andes Technology designs competitive CPU cores and associated software for personal, home, and office applications. EEMBC provides a way for customers to quickly see our strength," said Dr. Charlie Su, CTO and Vice President of R&D at Andes Technology. "We are pleased to join EEMBC and look forward to working with members to contribute our knowledge to enhance the benchmarks for performance, code size and power consumption, and for tomorrow's embedded workload."
