- Advanced mobile chip innovator showcases 4G Software Modem form-factor UE

Sandbridge Technologies, a cutting edge fabless semiconductor company developing multi-mode baseband/multimedia processors for low-cost advanced mobile data devices, announced today that it will showcase an LTE UE implementation based on it's SB3000(R) series SOC platform during the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona. The LTE system implementation was developed in partnership with mimoOn -- a communications SW IP company based in Duisburg, Germany.

"This LTE implementation clearly demonstrates the many advantages of our unique platform," said Sandbridge CEO, Guenter Weinberger. "Not only does our software modem add 4G capability on top of 3.5G at no additional cost, it also speeds time-to-market, minimizes investment risk and enables rapid adaptation to evolving standards. Further, through collaboration with mimoOn as a 3rd party communications specialist, we can provide complete competitive solutions that deliver superb performance and robustness using the most sophisticated algorithms."

Sandbridge's groundbreaking technology promises to revolutionize the design, manufacture and usability of next-generation convergent wireless devices. The company's SB3000(R) series SOC platform delivers extreme performance at ultra low power consumption on a single low-cost chip, with the capacity to execute-entirely in software-all baseband processing for 2-4G cellular, WiFi/WiMAX, location and video broadcast protocols-as well as all multi-media functions.

Beyond low-cost and high-integration, Sandbridge's technology facilitates faster, lower-cost development of handsets than fixed-function hardware and allows OEM's and 3rd party IP providers to keep pace with rapidly evolving protocols and features by enabling them to develop, test, revise and implement designs on a single reprogrammable platform entirely in high level "C" software.
