By Colleen Taylor, Contributing Editor -- Electronic News, 9/11/2007

Chip giant Intel Corp. announced along with configurable multimedia subsystem and CPU/DSP core developer ARC International plc that the two companies have signed a new multi-year, royalty bearing licensing agreement.

According to the companies, under the terms of the deal, which bring together ARC's processor-based wireless broadband solutions with Intel's x86 processors, Intel's system-on-chip (SoC) developers will be able to use ARC's configurable solutions to reduce power consumption and increase a chipset's performance by adding custom instruction extensions. Additionally, ARC will provide comprehensive support and training to Intel development centers in North America.

Financial terms of the deal have not been disclosed.

"This is a landmark announcement for ARC," Carl Schlachte, president and CEO of ARC International, said in a statement. "We are honored by Intel's adoption of the company's configurable products."
