1 MIPI Alliance Overview Joel Huloux ST-Ericcson Chairman, MIPI Alliance June 16,

2 MIPI Alliance Overview Open membership organization creates interface specifications aiding the development and interoperability of mobile devices Unique perspective addresses the complete Mobile Terminal platform needs Member companies span the mobile ecosystem - semiconductor For The Industry companies, software vendors, IP providers, peripheral manufacturers, test labs and end product OEMs Multiple specifications have been implemented in products available today reducing engineering and product development costs 2

3 Mobile Industry Evolution Benefits from MIPI Alliance Mission Fragmentation in mobile industry Increasing complexity of system designs Limited engineering resources available to focus on delivering maximum return on investment (ROI) For The Industry Increasing competition fuels need for differentiation Accelerating time-to-market demands 3

4 Openness and Standardization Will Fuel Market Growth Improve interconnectivity and compatibility Reduce fragmentation in mobile industry for interfaces Increase system quality and reliability Increase resource efficiency More resources applied to differentiated R&D Maximize design reuse Drive innovation For The Industry Liberated resources can focus energy on value-added innovation Reduce time-to-market Component suppliers will debate fewer interfaces for integration System OEMs will face less complex system integration More compelling services will reach consumers faster 4

5 MIPI Alliance - A Growing Organization Over 175 members Member Companies July 2003: MIPI founded by ARM, Nokia, ST and TI Feb 2004: Working groups and investigation groups formed Nov 2006: Scope extended to Mobile Terminal 5
