MOUNTAIN VIEW, CA--(Marketwired - May 28, 2015) - The Linley Group, the industry's leading source for independent technology analysis of semiconductors for networking, communications, mobile, and wireless, today announced the Linley IoT Conference will take place on June 11 at the Hyatt Regency in Santa Clara, Calif. Linley Gwennap, principal analysts at The Linley Group, will open the conference with an overview and forecast of the IoT market. The one-day, single-track event will cover hardware design for client devices on the Internet of Things, such as smart meters, smart parking, smart farms, smart appliances, connected vehicles, smart lighting, home security and wearables.

"As the IoT market grows, we are seeing more companies designing highly integrated IoT chips rather than simply adapting existing microcontrollers and wireless devices," commented Linley Gwennap, principal analyst at The Linley Group. "This new conference focuses on hardware design for IoT devices, presenting new chips and IP cores that address the low power, low cost, and security requirements of this market. In addition to technical presentations, we offer attendees the opportunity to network with other designers and suppliers in the IoT market."

Presenting companies include Synopsys, Freescale, InsideSecure, Cadence, Arteris, Global Foundries, and CEVA. There will also be a reception with sponsor exhibits and demonstrations where attendees will have an opportunity to network and discuss specific products and technologies.
