Designed Into Wireless Cellular Handsets and Portable Media Players

Tensilica’s Diamond Standard and Xtensa processors are well accepted in wireless cellular handsets and portable media players. Because Tensilica’s processors are lower power, they are ideal for hand-held portable devices. Here are some of Tensilica’s customers that have developed chips that have been designed into leading consumer wireless handsets:

AMD / ATI

ATI – “In our evaluation, we were very impressed with the suitability of Tensilica’s Xtensa processor for numerous functions in our complex SOC designs," stated Adrian Hartog, CTO, ATI (now AMD). “By adding functions in Xtensa processors, rather than hand coding them in RTL, we can make these functions programmable, giving us plenty of flexibility for changing standards and feature sets."

Tensilica processors are in ATI's Imageon Media Processors 2182, 2282, 2380 and 2388. Here are some of the mobile phones that ATI's chips are designed into.

Key applications include cellular phones for the local market as well as portable devices such as PDAs and digital televisions. Here are some of the LG phones with Xtensa inside:
