XMOS®, developer of the industry’s first 32-bit event-driven microcontroller, announces that Shelton Group, an integrated communications firm providing customized programs for strategic public relations (PR) and investor relations (IR), as its PR agency of record.

XMOS has developed a new architecture that redefines the way that microcontroller-based embedded systems are designed, deployed and maintained. The company has developed the next generation of 32-bit, multi-core, multi-threaded, embedded microcontrollers that significantly lower solution development time and product bill of materials cost.  The company’s event-driven microcontrollers combine the efficiency of a RISC processor, the computational performance of a DSP and the unique flexibility of implementing peripherals in high-level software instead of silicon.  The new architecture provides a real-time, multitasking environment without the use of an operating system.  Processing power can be finely tuned for the application by seamlessly adding multiple cores.

“We are proud to have selected Shelton Group as our PR partner,” said Tom Lee, vice president of business development of XMOS. “We believe they are the right partner to help communicate our story. They have become immersed in understanding our business and technology and consistently deliver results. They provide senior level, strategic counsel on a day-to-day basis. We look forward to a long and productive relationship.”

“We look forward to helping XMOS communicate its story to the media and industry analysts,” said Stacey Gaswirth, executive vice president of PR, Shelton Group. “We believe the company truly has a technology solution that is not available from anyone else today and those are the stories we love to tell.”
