Qualcomm has expanded its Qualcomm Reference Design portfolio with a reference design made specifically for tablets running on its Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 MSM 8230 and MSM 8030 processors. Both 7-and 10-inch versions of this tablet based on this Qualcomm Reference Design will be on display at Computex 2013 in Taiwan.

Qualcomm has expanded its Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 processors portfolio to include support for Microsoft Windows RT 8.1. Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 processors feature an integrated multimode 3G/4G LTE modem and CPU speeds of up to 2.2 GHz per core. Other capabilities include USB 3.0 and support for Windows RT 8.1 features and services.

IC Insights’ new 250-page Mid-Year Update to the 2013 McClean Report, describes why a very clear distinction should be made between the IC market (i.e., consumption) in China and IC production within China. Although China has been the largest individual market for ICs since 2005, it does not necessarily mean that large increases in IC production within China would immediately follow, or ever follow.

Power Integrations have introduced the CHY100, the first AC-DC wall-charger interface IC that enables designers of mobile devices to implement the Quick Charge 2.0 protocol from Qualcomm. Launched earlier this year, Quick Charge 2.0 enables users to charge mobile devices up to 75% faster than when using conventional technology. Used in combination with Power Integrations’ AC-DC switcher ICs, the CHY100 incorporates all the necessary elements re...

The Digi TransPort WR44 RR, with locomotive industry certifications, flexible communications and state-of-the-art security, is ideal for on-board rail applications such as locomotive communications and monitoring, passenger Internet access and Positive Train Control (PTC).

According to preliminary findings from the 2013 edition of Semicast’s Embedded Processing Service, Intel was the largest supplier of embedded processors in 2012, just ahead of Qualcomm. Broadcom maintained its position as third largest supplier, while Samsung traded places with Texas Instruments for fourth and fifth respectively.

A slowdown in notebook and desktop personal computer purchases coupled with strong growth in smartphones and tablet PCs knocked Advanced Micro Devices down to fourth place in microprocessor sales in 2012 from second, where AMD had been perched behind Intel since the 1990s, according to a new ranking of MPU suppliers by IC Insights.

Arteris today announced that its FlexNoC interconnect fabric IP was used in a majority of chips developed in 2011 and 2012, and deployed in market leading smartphone and tablet mobile devices in 2013. Smart phones rely on high-performance application processors and LTE baseband modems designed on aggressive schedules, with challenging cost targets, high levels of complexity and leading edge performance.
