Tensilica's Atlas LTE Reference Architecture DSPs Now Available

The Atlas Reference Architecture uses the Tensilica ConnX BBE16 baseband DSP core coupled with three function-specific dataplane processor cores to allow the baseband PHY SOC developer to create a very low power and minimal size PHY system, while enjoying the flexibility of a fully programmable radio, which is vital for competitive multi-standard user equipment devices (handsets) and femtocells. Atlas supports the 3GPP LTE  standard, as well as other complementary standards such as HSPA+ and WiMAX.
