SCALABLE
PRODUCTION
SOLUTIONS
Amulet’s Graphical OS Chip™ is a
combination microprocessor, LCD
controller and graphic library,
significantly reducing memory
requirements and freeing the host
micro-processor to do its job more
effectively.
“We have an innovative product
and we wanted a user interface
to match. It had to be great
looking and easy-to-use. The
HTML and graphics tools really
let us focus on that. Furthermore,
we didn’t anticipate our system
processor doing real-time
graphics, Amulet’s approach to
GUIs allowed us to create a GUI
with all the features we wanted
without impacting performance.”
Visually Appealing.

BEYOND YOUR BASIC LCD
CONTROLLER
Amulet invented the Graphical Operating
System in Silicon™. The chip is a combination
LCD controller and microprocessor operating
a graphic OS. A dedicated microprocessor for
the GUI frees the host microprocessor. This
approach can be applied to new product
design, or to established products craving
a midlife remodel. Customers can create a
graphical UI or “skin,” without altering the
application’s microcontroller or code.
“The Amulet LCD controller is an effi-
cient solution. By offloading the graphical
interface to a dedicated coprocessor, the
embedded systems designer can focus on
real-world interface issues.” - Jonathan
Somers, Senior Research Engineer
THE AMULET WAY
• GUI Visually Created in HTML
• No Burden on the Host Micro to Run GUI
• Requirement for Memory and Micro is Less
• Time to Market is Much Shorter
• Straight From Prototype to Production
• 24/7 Reliability
• Design GUI & Application in Parallel
• Fosters Collaboration between Engineers and
Designers

LOWER SYSTEM COSTS
Amulet’s software solution in silicon delivers
significant savings in overall system costs by
providing a product that uses less memory,
and frees up the host microprocessor to do its
job. Customers can now use low-cost 8-bit
microcontrollers for products that use feature-
rich, graphically robust UIs.
“Amulet’s Easy GUI chip freed up nearly
80% of our processor resources!” - Mark
Doble, President, MD Designs, Tampa, FL
THE OLD WAY
• GUI Requires Software Programming
• More Difficult to Create Using Code
• Requires Considerable Processing Power
• Memory for Application and GUI is Large
• Cost & Time to Develop GUI is High
• Recurring Cost (memory & micro) Higher
• Longer Time to Market
• Requires Simulation Phase in Development
