January 31th 2002, Taipei, Taiwan –
Silicon Integrated Systems Corp. (SiS), a leading core
logic and graphic chips supplier, today announced its winning of the “Symbol of
Excellence” award – the mark of Taiwan’s best products, for two products: the
SiS645 and SiS745. The SiS645 is the first Pentium® 4 chipset supporting DDR333
while the SiS745 features the integration of IEEE1394 for AMD AthlonTM XP
platform, supporting DDR333 as well. Passed a series of strict evaluation from
the committee, both products were given this prestigious award.
Since the launch of the SiS645 and SiS745, the market has responded
optimistically in addition to numerously positive reports from the worldwide
media. With both products winning the Symbol of Excellence Award, SiS has again
proved its stance as the leadership for the new generation. This is the third
consecutive year that SiS has received this recognition. The Symbol of
Excellence Award was organized by the Economic Ministry of Republic of China.
The purpose of this award is to encourage local manufacturers to develop
innovative, creative and brand-leading products.
The SiS645 is the world’s first Pentium 4 chipset supporting DDR333 with 3 to 6
months ahead of all the competitors. It features unprecedented high performance,
full compatibility and low energy consumption. The SiS645 employs open
architecture with independent north and south bridge (SiS645/SiS961). The SiS745
also employs open architecture and is the first single chip to integrate
IEEE1394 to provide fast peripheral interface. Both SiS645 and SiS745 support
DDR333/DDR266 memory module up to 3GB. In addition, the SiS proprietary MuTIOL®
(Multi-threaded I/O Link) technology delivers 533MB/s bandwidth between the
north and south bridges. As a result, the SiS645 and SiS745 drastically increase
the operating speed of all the connected peripherals.
SiS has devoted in developing leading-edge products with the best
cost/performance since its establishment. To be a technology leader in the
industry and to stay competitive in the market, SiS will keep this prestigious
tradition as being the symbol of excellence.
