Intel expected to release smartphone plans next week

Android-x86Intel Corp. is expected to provide more details next week on its plans to become a key supplier for the smartphone market when wireless industry experts gather for the Mobile World Congress show in Barcelona, Spain.

Intel is the kingpin of personal computer technology but a late arrival in a smartphone market crowded with such providers as Apple Inc., Nvidia Corp. and Qualcomm Inc.

Intel has been trying to push into the mobile products market for years without much success. Analysts say a few of its recent attempts — chips called Menlo and Moorestown — fell short of the mark.

But now the giant chipmaker appears to be in better shape, thanks to a massive investment in low-power chip manufacturing technology and the continued efforts of its Austin design team.

Its latest entrant in mobile is Medfield, a smartphone-oriented system chip. The company says it has strong design roots in Austin, where the engineering effort for Intel's low-power Atom chip family is based.

Intel provided some early details about Medfield in January and is expected to divulge more next week in Barcelona. The company also said it has two phone-makers signed up to develop Medfield-based phones — Motorola Mobility and China's Lenovo Group.
