IC and GPU chip designer Nvidia has just announced, on its official website, that the company’s new Icera software modem was certified to work on AT&T LTE networks.
The Icera chip has a multimode radio transceiver that can offer 4G LTE at category 2 transfer data rates of up to 50 Mb/s. This is a very fast data transmission solution over mobile phone networks and, for Nvidia, it is truly a necessity if the company wants to succeed as a smartphone processor manufacturer.
Future Tegra chips might actually incorporate this type of technology to allow the platform to achieve lower energy consumption and thus, a longer battery life. "Validation with AT&T is an achievement that paves the way for NVIDIA Icera-powered LTE devices on the AT&T network through this year and next," said Stan Boland, senior vice president of Nvidia’s Mobile Communications division.
