Freescale Semiconductor, the microprocessor spinoff of Motorola and ARM processor licensee, announced a licensing deal this week to integrate E Ink display controllers into Freescale's processors.
The deal will merge E Ink's Vizplex electronic paper displays with Freescale's i.MX family of ARM-based system-on-chips (SoC). Both vendors are fairly dominant in the e-book market -- they are both used in the three top-selling e-book devices, Amazon's Kindle, Sony's Digital Reader and iRex's line of e-readers.
The companies said they expect their work also will "spark innovation for emerging product categories," including e-newspapers, tablet PCs, laptop secondary displays and e-notebooks.
