CEVA-TeakLite DSP License Extended By STMicroelectronics For Next Generation DSL Central Office Chipsets

SAN JOSE, Calif. - March 14, 2005 - CEVA, Inc. (Nasdaq: CEVA,
LSE: CVA) the leading licensor of Digital Signal Processing (DSP) cores
and communications solutions to the semiconductor industry, today
announced that ST has extended the license of the CEVA-TeakLite® DSP for
use in its next generation of DSL Central Office (CO) chipset
solutions.

The dynamic growth in both home and business Internet usage is being
driven by the advent of Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) technology. At
speeds topping out at 100 Mbps, the range of applications for DSL is
enormous - everything from simple data transfer to distributing high
definition television. ST has established itself as the world's number one
DSL chipset provider and has been adopted by leading equipment
manufacturers across the client equipment, central office and router
market segments. CEVA's TeakLite® DSP core already powers ST's CopperWing8
ADSL and CopperWing12 ADSL2+ CO chipsets.

"The very small footprint and high performance of the CEVA-TeakLite®
DSP made it the optimum choice for DSL applications where lowest-cost per
channel is key," said Jean Beka, DSL Business Director at
STMicroelectronics. "Our previous experiences with CEVA drove the decision
to adopt the core for our next DSL CO chipsets."

"We are pleased to extend our partnership with STMicroelectronics, the
number one semiconductor supplier of DSL solutions. DSL is one of the
fastest growing applications in the communications industry and this
licensing agreement further reinforces CEVA's leadership as a DSP
provider," said Chet Silvestri, Chairman and CEO of CEVA.
