CEVA DSP Cores ... Inside Intel
Intel Corp. is gaining discernible market share in the LTE chips business, and Qualcomm, the 800-pound gorilla in the mobile baseband market, suddenly looks in Intel's crosshairs. A closer look at Intel's journey from a mobile silicon underdog to the owner of a swelling LTE footprint shows that design ingredients like CEVA Inc.'s DSP cores have played a significant role in helping Intel get its baseband act together.
Intel licensed CEVA-XC core for LTE chips back in 2010 at around the same time when it was acquiring Infineon's wireless business unit. Infineon also used CEVA's DSP engines in its ARM-based 3G and 4G LTE chips. However, Intel's licensing deal with CEVA was independent of its pending acquisition of Infineon's baseband business. After early setbacks, Intel had now started surrounding its Atom system-on-chips (SoCs) with outside ingredients like CEVA soft modems.
