ARC International has signed a multi-use, multi-year license agreement with Israeli digitiser chip IP developer N-trig.
The licence deal covers the ARC 600 and ARC 700 processors for use in N-trig's DuoSense technology.
The processors are incorporated in Asics to provide control and signal processing functions for N-trig's DuoSense pen and capacitive touch screen digitiser.
"Our adoption of ARC cores for the next 
generation of our products provides us with a platform for future development," said Yaki Luzon, v-p R&D and engineering, N-trig.
ARC processor cores can be configured and extended with optional features using correct-by-construction design methods that do not impact time to market.
“The ability to augment the standard RISC cores with advanced XY DSP and Dual-MAC units that accelerate floating point operations provides the system architect 
the ability to craft the most suitable Risc/DSP for the task,” said ARC.
"We are excited to be working with N-trig whose hands-on computing technology is driving the next generation of multi-touch computers," said Dr. Akash R. Deshpande, chief technology officer of ARC International.
