Validity Sensors Licenses Two Tensilica Processors for High-Volume Fingerprint Sensors

"Power, performance and die size are critical factors in our leading edge sensor designs," stated Alex Erhart, EVP of products at Validity Sensors. "Moving up from a 16-bit controller to a 32-bit controller creates a lot of opportunities to add enhanced features that need to be balanced with the area and power impact of a higher end controller. Tensilica's processors give us the speed we need with the lowest power and minimal die size. We were particularly impressed with the ability to customize the processors for our exact application requirements."
