/> We've experienced significant growth in Japan as most of the major semiconductor and electronic systems companies in the country have adopted our dataplane processors (DPUs) to help them develop low-power and high-performance, programmable designs while reducing design risk and time-to-market, stated Jack Guedj, Tensilica's president and CEO.

Tensilica recently announced that NTT DOCOMO's LTE handset system-on-a-chip (SOC) employs multiple Tensilica DPU cores. In addition to Docomo, Tensilica's announced major companies in Japan include ALPS, EPSON, Fujitsu Mobile, Fujitsu Semi, NEC Mobile, Renesas, Olympus, Panasonic Mobile, and Sony.

The new office is located at Innotech Building 2F, 3-17-6, Shin-Yokohama, Kohoku-ku, Yokohama, 222-0033, Japan. The telephone number remains unchanged at +81-45-477-3373.

The customer seminar is being held Monday afternoon, May 24, 2010, at the ShinYokohama Kokusai Hotel. For detailed information on attending this seminar, please visit http://www.tensilica.co.jp/news_events/seminar_2010.html
