Nuelight setting up $3mn chip design centre in Hyderabad

US-based Nuelight Corporation is setting up a mixed signal integrated chip design centre in Hyderabad for OLED display manufacturers to develop video-centric displays for high-volume consumer products.

The company plans to invest $3 million in the facility over the next two years, and would employ 50 engineers to handle full chip design by 2006, Nuelight founder and chairman Damoder Reddy told mediapersons here on Thursday.

He said that the centre would have competence to develop sophisticated OLED panel controllers from concept to mass production. Apart from very large scale integration (VLSI) design, the company would also build analog design as well as IC product design capability at its Hyderabad centre.
