Software giant Microsoft Corp.(NasdaqNM:MSFT - news) will announce plans to allow several semiconductor makers to modify its software to make customized embedded chips, the Wall Street Journal reported in Tuesday's online edition. Chip makers including Intel Corp, MIPS Technologies Inc and ARM Holdings Plc will be able to make the chips for devices running versions of Microsoft's Windows CE software, the paper said.

Microsoft Chief Executive Steve Ballmer is expected to unveil the plan on Tuesday at a conference in Las Vegas, the paper said. | ||
