TRENDS AND CHALLENGES IN WIRELESS APPLICATION PROCESSORS

Abstract:  The rapid deployment of 3G wireless networks is accelerating the demand for application processors to deliver multimedia-rich wireless services to end-customers. Texas Instruments has pioneered the way with OMAP(tm) technology. Each generation of OMAP application processors has delivered breakthrough performance with ultra-low power consumption. This challenging combination has been achieved by applying state-of-the art power management technologies to application processors manufactured with leading edge silicon technologies. The trend towards more performance will continue to drive innovation.
