Amphion

Amphion, a Belfast-based provider of semiconductor intellectual property (SIP) for digital video and image coding system-on-chip design.

Belfast-based Amphion delivers high-performance solutions for video and image compression, wireless baseband, advanced encryption, and speech and channel coding with a comprehensive range of silicon-optimised products. Using proprietary techniques to directly map digital signal processing functions and algorithms into hardware, Amphion develops and licenses semiconductor intellectual-property (IP) cores that are close to optimal in terms of power, cycles, and area – computationally up to several orders of magnitude more efficient than equivalent functions implemented on a programmable processor
