Getting the best from a Radio Spectrum: MIMO

Getting the best from a Radio Spectrum: MIMO
by Eric Esteve on 06-02-2014 at 8:21 am

Exchanging data through wireless network is that we are doing every day, every hour if not every minute. Not only we use our smartphone to discuss or exchange Emails, but also to download, or upload, massive amounts of data. Thus, the radio spectrum has become to be busy, and is an expansive piece for carriers. Optimizing this radio… Read More


Always-on and the new wearable core

Always-on and the new wearable core
by Don Dingee on 06-01-2014 at 11:00 am

Recently, I mentioned smartphone SoCs consume one, maybe two orders of magnitude too much power for broader use in wearables. However, that is only when they are “on”. To save power and stretch battery life, smartphones spend a lot of time napping – display off, sitting still with MEMS sensors powered down, waiting for an incoming… Read More


Selecting the Right Standard Cell & Memory for 28HPM DSP core: real case with CEVA XC4210

Selecting the Right Standard Cell & Memory for 28HPM DSP core: real case with CEVA XC4210
by Eric Esteve on 05-09-2014 at 11:14 am

Listening to a webinar at your desk, in front of a PC screen will never replace a live presentation, but the lesson learned to time spent ratio can be incredibly higher than when traveling to a conference to listen several presentation. If you are interested by the approach taken by a complex DSP design team to overcome the various … Read More


4G BaseBand Support with TeakLite4? Add Also CEVA-Bluetooth!

4G BaseBand Support with TeakLite4? Add Also CEVA-Bluetooth!
by Eric Esteve on 05-09-2014 at 4:46 am

The CEVA-TeakLite-4 is the DSP IP issued from the TeakLite family, started about 15 years ago with the 16-bit, single MAC TeakLite. Now the TeakLite-4 is a 32-bit, quad MAC IP core, supporting 2G/3G/4G Wireless BaseBand or PowerLine Communication. But even the latest BaseBand computational requirement doesn’t saturate this… Read More


Intel is Still Missing Mobile!

Intel is Still Missing Mobile!
by Daniel Nenni on 05-07-2014 at 9:00 am

Paul McLellan was on assignment in Hong Kong last week so I attended the Linley Mobile Conference and was not surprised Intel did not present. During the networking sessions I asked more than a dozen people why and the answers were pretty focused on “Intel still does not play well with others” and “Intel’s current mobile offerings… Read More


Does Processor IP still get the Lion’s share in 2013?

Does Processor IP still get the Lion’s share in 2013?
by Eric Esteve on 04-17-2014 at 1:00 pm

I think that the answer is pretty obvious, but the interesting point is to figure out which processor type, and which part of revenues, up-front license or royalties? One of my customers, let’s call him Mr. X, ask me to clarify this point. Mr. X has bought the excellent report from Gartner “Market Share: Semiconductor Design Intellectual… Read More


4G shalt thou not count, neither count thou 2G

4G shalt thou not count, neither count thou 2G
by Don Dingee on 04-11-2014 at 9:00 pm

Five years from now, what will be the leading mobile connectivity standard? If you said 4G, please report to the brainwashing remediation center nearest you immediately. 3G is not only here to stay for the long haul, it’s growing – and will quickly become the preferred choice for M2M deployments.… Read More


Rise of the cloudphone?

Rise of the cloudphone?
by Don Dingee on 03-24-2014 at 3:00 pm

We’re all quite twitterpated with the smartphone. Admittedly, it has taken much of the world by storm, and dominates EDA discussion because of the complex SoCs inside. Feature phones have repeatedly been declared dead, or at least disinteresting, but the numbers tell a different story.

While Europe and the US enjoy much higher… Read More


Yamaha Selecting Audio/Voice DSP Architecture?

Yamaha Selecting Audio/Voice DSP Architecture?
by Eric Esteve on 02-27-2014 at 3:51 am

…or Chongquing CYIT Communication Technology Co Ltd. Both of them have recently licensed the CEVA-TeakLite-4 DSP, the latest for its multi-mode wireless baseband chips targeting 4G terminals, including smartphones and tablets (CYIT) and Yamaha to address the need to run increasingly complex voice pre-processing algorithms,… Read More


More things on the DSP frontier at MWC14

More things on the DSP frontier at MWC14
by Don Dingee on 02-23-2014 at 12:00 pm

With a well-chronicled share inside cellular baseband interfaces for mobile devices, one might think that is the entire CEVA story, especially going into Mobile World Congress 2014 this week. MWC is still a phone show, but is becoming more and more about the Internet of Things and wearables, and CEVA and its ecosystem are showing… Read More
