Fast processor start-up wins funding

Belfast-based expression processor development start-up Titan IC Systems has won seedcorn funding.
LONDON — Belfast-based expression processor development start-up Titan IC Systems has been named Northern Ireland winner of the new best emerging international company category in the All-Island Seedcorn Business Competition run by InterTradeIreland.

A spin-out from the Institute of Electronics, Communications and Information Technology (ECIT) at Queen's University Belfast, the company has thus added seedcorn funding worth £13,500.

The company was formed in September 2007 to commercialize an ultra-fast processor, capable of inspecting the content of packets of data streamed at up to 10Gbits/second.

Dubbed the RXP - the Regular Expression Processor * the device was developed by Titan IC's chief technical officer, Dr Sakir Sezer.

RXP is said to be the first 32-bit data-path regular expression processor capable of processing POSIX/PCRE compatible regular expressions in parallel at 5-20 Gbits/s line rates.

"The RXP is a revolutionary new technology capable of processing multiple characters and multiple regular expressions in parallel as concurrent tasks on multiple processing engines.

As we continue to work on its development, we are delighted to have won seedcorn funding from InterTradeIreland which has already resulted in significant interest from industry experts," commented Dr Godfrey Gaston, Titan IC's CEO.

READER OFFER

This month Keithley Instruments is giving away two of its Model 2200 power supplies, worth 735 Euros each, for EETimes Europe's readers to win. The Model 2200-20-5: 20V, 5A, 100W on offer is one of five general-purpose programmable DC power supplies recently launched by the company, designed for source measurement instruments for component, module, and device characterization and test applications.

Part of the Series 2200 family, the unit’s voltage output accuracy is specified at 0.03% and its current output accuracy is 0.05%. The supply’s high output (1mV) and measurement (0.1mA) resolution makes it well-suited for characterizing low power circuits and devices in applications such as measuring idle mode and sleep mode currents to confirm devices can meet today’s ever-more-challenging goals for energy efficiency.

And the winners are:

In our previous reader offer, EPC was giving away ten of its EPC9002 development board kits, worth USD 95 each.
Lucky winners include  I. Blythe and C. Hardman from the UK, M. Casartelli and D. Cogliati from Italy, C. Cossio from Spain, W. Milarch from Germany, r. Milewicz from Poland, M. Prascak from Slovakia, A. Raidl from Austria and M. Taslakov from Bulgaria.
All should be receiving their kits soon. Let's wish them some interesting findings with their projects.
