We are the number one vendor of semiconductors
for digital TVs says Trident
Trident Microsystems said it is ramping up production of
its TV semiconductor chips for the 2010 holiday selling
season. Trident says 4 out of the top 5 panel manufacturers
and 4 out of the top 6 TV manufacturers are using Trident's
semiconductor devices. These TVs and panels include high-definition
2D and 3D entertainment systems. These digital TVs use ESR
(enhanced super resolution), motion estimation/motion compensation
(MEMC) devices from Trident.
Trident estimates that for 2010 it currently has the number
one market share position in semiconductor system solutions
for digital and analog TV. The company also estimates that
it has a market share of greater than 50% in FRC (frame-rate-converter)
co-processors that are used to create 240hz and higher frame-refresh
rates in high-end digital TVs.
"With more than 2,000 patents and top-three industry
positions in both TV and set-top box, Trident has become
a major force in the digital entertainment market,"
said Sylvia Summers, CEO of Trident Microsystems. "The
new and stronger Trident leads the industry today with the
most vivid and brilliant TV images, a strong feature set
across a broad TV product range, and a future product roadmap
that we believe positions us well to keep winning in the
market."
In year 2009 Trident has acquired NXP's television systems
and set-top box business line.
