Sandbridge Intros LTE Processors
TARRYTOWN, N.Y. — Sandbridge Technologies
announced today the release of their SB3500 flexible baseband processor
which facilitates the implementation of 4G mobile handsets entirely in
software. Capable of operating any radio protocol required for a common
(universal) multi-mode, multi-function mobile platform, the SB3500 meets
critical power consumption specifications of wireless carriers and
significantly reduces time-to-market and overall development costs for
OEMs.
“The SB3500 is an ‘industry first’ that positions Sandbridge as a
dominant force in the emerging LTE market,” said Tanuj Raja, VP Business
Development. “With its capacity for performing LTE and legacy cellular
systems, the SB3500 is effectively a future-proof baseband platform that is
transformational for the entire mobile communications value chain.”
The SB3500 is the world’s most flexible, cost-efficient and
power-efficient universal baseband processor. Its architectural innovations
provide scalable performance for any radio protocol in use today or in
development for the future — including LTE, HSPA, 3G WiMAX, Wi-Fi, DVB-H,
GPS, and all multimedia formats.
Implemented in 65nm, the SB3500 is currently being sampled to select
top-tier customers who are developing next generation handsets exclusive of
traditional fixed function processors.
“An all too very familiar impediment to the introduction of a new
wireless technology is the lack of devices and their underlying chipsets,”
noted Michael Thelander, CEO of Signals Research Group, LLC. “Solutions
such as the SB3500, help address that challenge by giving major handset
OEMs the flexibility to leverage their internal software R&D efforts with
Sandbridge Technologies’ commercially-available baseband processor.”
