 "IIDC's Major Role In Centrino Mobile Platform")
Intel India Development Centre (IIDC) of chipmaker Intel, played a major role in designing, developing, testing and validating the Centrino mobile platform for the consumer and enterprise markets worldwide.
“The mobility group of the IIDC was involved in the development of the Centrino mobile platform, contributing about 70-80% of the new processor. Our development centres in Israel and the US chipped in to fabricate the chipsets for OEMs and ODMs,” explained Sandeep Shah, mobility group director, Intel India.
Formerly code-named Santa Rosa, the next-generation Centrino processor technology incorporates a robust central processing unit (CPU) with Intel core 2 duo processor, graphics memory controller hub (code-named Crestline), I/O controller hub (ICH8), 802.11n wireless technology, turbo memory and an active management technology for security and manageability.
“In addition to the four vectors - seamless wireless connectivity, new form factors, longer battery life and higher performance, we have introduced the fifth vector (security and manageability) to the mobile platform on the feedback received from our enterprise clients,” added Shah.
Of the 3,000-odd total tech workforce at the IIDC, about one-third of it work for the mobility group.
