Vision Statement
The world today is a mix of digital and analog
technologies. Every day, system engineers are
forced to assemble discrete components to meet
the requirements of this mixed-signal world.
Mobius’ vision is to profitably deliver cutting edge
mixed-signal technology solutions that enable a
new generation of integrated high-performance,
low-noise, mixed-signal silicon products, while
significantly reducing price, size, and power
consumption.

How IP and Why IP is Used
Motorola is Building a Cell Phone
• Market opportunity and window identified
• System specification defined
• Chip specification defined and handed off
Chip Designers Need to Meet Deadline and Budgets
• Develop majority of chip in-house
• Buy 3rd party IP (Mobius) for some functions
• Integrate IP with their design and send to fabrication facility for
manufacturing
What Mobius Offers System Designers
•

Vision
Lower power to meet power budget
Less space so final product can be smaller
Considerable cost savings
