Intel Smartphone Processors To Debut Early 2011

Smartphones powered by Intel processors maybe shown at the CES in January 2011, or the Mobile World Congress conference in February 2011.

"That would clearly be the window of opportunity for us," Intel CTO Justin Rattner told Wired.com.

The first smart phone powered by an Intel processor will likely debut in early 2011.

According to IDC estimates, 54.7 million smartphones shipped during the first quarter of 2010, a 56.7% rise over the same period last year.

The smartphone market is currently dominated by processors based on Intel rival ARM's architecture. Companies that have licensed the architecture include Qualcomm, Samsung and Apple.

The 32 bit RISC instruction set architecture of ARM chips makes them suitable for low power applications.

Intel earlier attempted to enter the smartphone market with its Atom processors but there were no takers, because the chips use more power than those based on the ARM architecture.

Intel is now targeting the market with its Moorestown processor.

First announced in May 2010, Moorestown is claimed to be more power efficient than ARM processor, yet packs adequate processing horsepower for video conferencing and HD video.

The system-on chip package is based on Intel's 45-nanometer process and will pack 140 million transistors.

Moorestown processors are expected to power smartphones as well as tablets.
