Marvell at CES
Marvell’s latest technologies will be showcased at CES, Jan. 10-14, 2012. To see demonstrations and learn more, show attendees and media can visit the Marvell booth, located in the South Hall Upper Level, Booth 30542. New products and demonstrations include:
Mobile Technology: Mobility lies at the
heart of a seamlessly connected
lifestyle. A consumer wants access to
their content anytime, anywhere and on
various platforms, from smartphones to
digital TVs - even in the car. At the
same time, the technology that has led
to incredible advances in mobile over
the past decade - for example, low power
processing and wireless - is now
revolutionizing new areas of consumer
electronics and creating new markets
At CES, Marvell will unveil several new
end-to-end silicon solutions that
demonstrate how mobile technology is
improving consumers' lives, including
the advanced ARMADA dual-core processor
that incorporates core-morphing
technology enabling the chip to power up
or power down depending on needed
performance, and its Smart Energy
Platforms, which integrate industry-
leading Wi-Fi with energy-efficient
silicon solutions to bring the promise
of mobile to smart devices in the home.
Marvell will also showcase new products
that are powered by its leading mobile
application and communications
processors, including the One Laptop per
Child's XO 3.0 tablet.
Digital Entertainment Technology:
Mobility has given consumers access to
content from wherever they'd like. The
next phase of the seamlessly connected
lifestyle is delivering digital content
however they'd like, on their screen of
choice. With transparent connectivity
between various devices in the home
ecosystem, when it comes to digital
entertainment, Marvell's integrated
hardware /software solutions are at the
core of a revolution, delivering
exceptional performance with minimal
energy requirements.
At CES, Marvell will demonstrate its new
revolutionary ARMADA 1500-based
"Foresight Platform," which has been
designed into the new Google TV,
offering an exceptional television and
multimedia experience for the next
generation of Smart TVs, set-top boxes,
Blu-ray players and beyond. From HD and
3D streaming video to immersive sound,
the services consumers have come to love
- such as Netflix, Pandora, YouTube and
Picasa - can now arrive lighting fast,
crystal clear and seamlessly
transferable to any device.
Cloud Services Technology: Connected
living goes hand in hand with an
'always-on' status, causing new
products, applications and services to
increasingly rely on the Internet. As
consumers become increasingly more agile
in their use of the cloud, service
providers must scale to accommodate the
immediate and secure transfer of large
amounts of data to and from devices.
Marvell offers the high-performance
storage technology to keep consumers and
businesses alike within easy, reliable
range of the data that keeps them
connected, entertained and profitable.
For both enterprise and home networks,
Marvell's advantages include increased
capacity without expensive investments
in servers, storage and networking
infrastructure.
At CES, Marvell is unveiling the SMILE
Plug, the first plug development kit
designed to turn a traditional classroom
into a highly interactive learning
environment. Developed in collaboration
with Stanford, the SMILE Plug creates a
"micro cloud" within a classroom that is
completely controlled by the teacher,
enabling interactive, multimedia
curricula for a more engaging learning
experience.
Marvell will also demonstrate the Newton
88NV9145, the world's first native PCIe
SSD controller, designed to enable
datacenters to facilitate new
applications and deliver a superior
consumer experience.
