NEC Demos Moorestown Power Management IC Solution
(Wireless News Via Acquire Media NewsEdge)
NEC Electronics presented a live demonstration of its power management
IC (PMIC) solution for the Intel Moorestown mobile internet device
(MID) platform at the Intel Developer Forum (IDF) at the Taipei
International Convention Center in Taipei, Taiwan.
Developed in conjunction with Intel, NEC stated that its PMIC solution
combines power management, logic, and audio and voice communications
functions to maximize battery life, support high levels of integration
and minimize board space for Internet and cellular network access,
multimedia playback, navigation, gaming, social networking and other
Web 2.0 applications.
"NEC Electronics has applied its strong technical expertise in power
management and deep system-level knowledge of mobile devices to the
development of a highly integrated PMIC solution for Intel-based next
generation Mobile Internet Devices," said Tsutomu Aoki, general
manager, Power Management Devices Division, NEC Electronics. "In
showcasing working silicon, we demonstrate to our customers that we are
ready to help them develop next-generation consumer devices today."
"Mobile Internet Devices enable a great Internet experience - with long
battery life in increasingly pocketable devices," said Pankaj Kedia,
director of Global Ecosystem Programs in the Ultra Mobility Group at
Intel. "MIDs based on Intel's low power technologies, combined with NEC
Electronics' power management ICs, will make it easier for our
customers to design and bring to market increasingly smaller form
factors with longer battery life."
NEC Electronics specializes in semiconductor products encompassing
advanced technology solutions for the high-end computing and broadband
networking markets, system solutions for the mobile handset, PC
peripheral, automotive and digital consumer markets, and multi-market
solutions for a wide range of customer applications.
