SAN JOSE, Calif. and GUANGZHOU, China (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — GOWIN Semiconductor Corp., the world’s fastest-growing programmable logic company, announces the release of their HDMI/DVI RX and TX IPs in GOWIN EDA’s IP Generator providing low cost video interfacing and connectivity solutions for various embedded applications.
