SuVlta startup based in Silicon Valley said the new technology is licensed to Fujitsu Semiconductor. This allows companies to produce more energy-efficient microchips for use of tablets and smartphones.
Backed by venture capital firm Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers, SuVolta says the technology could break the two volumes of the resources used by the chip without sacrificing performance of the chip itself.
According to Fujitsu Semiconductor, a subsidiary of Fujitsu Ltd. of Japan, the existence of the technology, no major changes in production facilities. Therefore, the chip will be produced next year. This is indeed a big change in the industry, given the other players compete to produce more chips.
Intel, Texas Instruments, Samsung and Qualcomm are racing to design a processor with higher performance for smartphones and tablets. This is how they compete with Apple’s iPhone, a flaw in the performance of the battery.
Kleiner partner Bill Joy, who also founded Sun Microsystems in 1992, said: SuVolta technology drastically the amount of energy converted into heat and reduce waste of material, like microchips crunch data. “It takes a lot of the roads, running and running. But the situation is really a problem. This is the reason why the mobile phone and your laptop feels warm.”
“You can really improve the performance of your larger chip with the same battery life. You can extend battery life,” said Dan Hutcheson, an analyst at VLSI Research. “That makes a lot of people interested.”
Last month, Intel introduced the latest generation D #, which allows the transistor to the microchip, so that profitable designers tablets and smartphones. Intel also plans to shrink the circuits on the chip the size of the third mobile than usual, over the next three years. Interestingly, the small devices have a higher operating speed as efficiently. Unfortunately, the ambition is quite expensive by $ 10 billion cost.
