"It’s our honor to receive this Specialty Technology IP Partner Award from TSMC,” said H.P. Lin, Chairman of M31 Technology. “This award demonstrates that M31 has been capable of providing IP solutions in multiple TSMC technology platforms, especially on high voltage (HV) and Bipolar CMOS DMOS (BCD) process technologies.

M31’s IP developed on TSMC’s specialty processes are the enablers for highly integrated and power efficient chips, managing the power supply to meet the needs of TV, telecommunication equipment, automotive visual display, and Active-matrix Organic Light-emitting Diode (Amoled) products.”

M31 Technology has developed fundamental IP on TSMC’s specialty process of 40HV, 110HV, 90BCD, 180BCD, etc. With TSMC’s high-voltage (HV) process technology, it can provide higher quality images for panel drivers, and it can reduce power consumption of the products design on TV, smart phones, tablets, smart watches and other portable electronics. With TSMC’s BCD process technology, it can provide customers with more stable and efficient power supply, which consume less energy on SoC design. It is an ideal choice for consumer electronics, communication equipment, and computers.

“TSMC is pleased to recognize M31 for its outstanding IP enablement to TSMC specialty processes” said Suk Lee, TSMC Senior Director, Design Infrastructure Marketing Division. "With the advantages of TSMC’s HV and BCD process technologies, M31’s IP are suitable for SoC designs on LCD/LED driver and PMIC power management functions. Customers can develop their products – such as intelligent devices and power management devices – running in different voltage and power conditions.”
