 * Ingenic designs the XBurst CPU, an ultra low power and high performance implementation of the MIPS32 architecture.
 * 'XBurst has been integrated into numerous mobile and consumer system-on-chip (SoC) solutions, the companies newest
 * products focus on the wearables and consumer devices markets.

Chipsets history

 * The JZ47xx series SoC's, provide great advantages in terms of power consumption, multimedia capabilities and cost.
 * JZ47xx has been extensively used in markets including biometrics, e-education, portable media player, e-reader
 * and mobile internet devices since its production began in 2006.


 * The Mxxx series SoC's are targeted at the emerging wearables and smart devices market. They are designed to meet
 * the critical requirements of ultra-low power consumption, small form-factor with no compromise on performance.
 * With these SoC's, Ingenic has delivered solutions including Smart Watch and Smart Glass platforms to its customers,
 * helping them deliver their products to market in a shorter amount of time.
