Abstract

The rapid progress of semiconductors and software has improved the performance, features and form of digital consumer electronics products. The key technologies here are the single-chip LSI solution, merging memory and processor, system LSI-zation, and software solutions for multimedia processing and device control. In the 21st century, end-to-end networks, which include digital consumer electronics devices as an important element, are expected to proliferate. New solutions for digital consumer electronics are required.
