NEC establishes Turkish application centre

The team of engineers will assist customers in the design of set-top box, digital televisions & DVD Recorders based on NEC Electronics' EMMArchitecture™ System-on-Chip LSIs. The establishment of the office is a response to the growing market share of the EMMA™ series of MPEG Decoders in major consumer electronics markets and the growth potential of the Turkish market, Turkish manufacturers alone make over 20 million TV, DVD and STB devices per year. The Izmir office was opened by Rob Green, President of NEC Electronics Europe and Shigeo Niitsu, Japanese Vice President of the business unit responsible for the EMMA series world-wide.
