Testimonials
Linux is an integral part of the advanced system-on-chip (SoC) development process and is used as the development platform, as well as a target operating system for many systems that our customers design. Preserving the openness of Linux is critical to the continued advancement of next-generation SoCs in both embedded applications and consumer devices.
