General Purpose Product

General Purpose Product. A semiconductor component that is not a System-On-Chip and that provides, as its primary purpose, a basic or general purpose analog or digital function. For avoidance of doubt, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the term "General Purpose Product" includes amplifiers, drivers, comparators, A/D converters, D/A converters, sample/track & hold amplifiers, V/F and F/V converters, line receivers or transmitters, microconverters, microcontrollers, codecs, analog computation circuits... (e.g. multipliers, dividers, RMS converters), mixers, voltage regulators, voltage references, temperature sensors, multiplexers and decoders, switches, signal isolators, micro-machined devices, RF detectors, power management components (except that stand-alone power management components may be sold as part of a Cellular Semiconductor Product), energy meters, DC-DC converters, battery chargers, frequency synthesizers, and digital signal processors View More
