The three companies have teemed up to form another company.

Europe's second-largest chipmaker said in a statement that the new company--StarCore, based in Austin, Texas, will design DSP (digital signal processor) cores, which are used by chip manufacturers as building blocks of larger chipsets.

A DSP is a specialized chip that performs high-speed mathematical computations for processing and converting voice, data and video signals. DSPs are used not only by communication gear makers in handsets and base stations, for example, but also in consumer goods such as DVDs.
