Encore licenses its DSP based modem, speech coders and VoIP protocol stacks to OEMs.

Modem code is available either as an optimised implementation on a specific DSP platform or as C Reference Code, which has been developed by Encore engineers to help customers in porting to their target platforms. Speech Coders are available only as platform specific assembly code.

Encore has a very flexible pricing strategy to suit the customer. The two pricing schemes available are given below:

• Non-Exclusive Source Code Licensing
• Binary Licensing

In each of the above cases of licensing an upfront fee component is applied towards a source code or binary licence. Additionally, production royalties may also be applicable. A Software Licensing Agreement must be signed with Encore prior to the purchase.

Important: Certain algorithms based on the ITU-T standards (V.17/V.34 ... G.723.1/G.729 ...) may have been patented by third parties who are original developers of the technology. In such cases, the user of Encore's implementation (either source or binary) might also have to pay a license fee to that patent holder apart from paying Encore for the usage of its specific implementation of such algorithms and must directly negotiate the terms & conditions with the patent holder.
