Item 3.01
Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

On February 15, 2012, Pixelworks, Inc. (the “Company”) received a letter from Nasdaq (the “Notice”), stating that, as a result of the unforeseen death of Board member James R. Fiebiger on November 26, 2011, the Company failed to comply with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605, which requires that the Company's Audit Committee be comprised of at least three independent directors.

Prior to receipt of the Notice, however, on January 25, 2012 the Company's Board of Directors appointed Scott Gibson, an independent member of the Company's Board of Directors, to serve on the Company's Audit Committee. Accordingly, Nasdaq further stated in the Notice that it had determined the Company had regained compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605 and subject to the requirement to disclose receipt of the Notice, the matter was closed. A copy of the Notice is attached as an exhibit to this current report.

The filing of this current report fulfills the Company's disclosure requirement described in the Notice.
