Business Wire
Cypress Semiconductor Corp. (Nasdaq:CY) today announced that
Samsung Electronics Company Ltd. has selected the TrueTouch™
solution from Cypress to implement the touchscreen in the Wave 2
and Galaxy 5 mobile phones.
The Wave 2 and Galaxy families both include multiple innovative
models that bring high-end smartphone functionality to the world
wide markets. The Wave 2 models include a variety of features,
including convenient social media access, high-resolution cameras,
and in some cases an additional QWERTY keyboard. They all provide
highly responsive and accurate touchscreens using the Cypress
TrueTouch solution and are powered by Bada/Android operating
systems, depending on the model.
The TrueTouch controller families chosen by Samsung offer an
integrated analog sensing engine for the industry’s fastest and
most accurate touchscreen user experience. This responsiveness
allows tracking of multiple fingers simultaneously with precise x-y
locations and without user delays or problems with erroneous
“ghost” responses. The devices also offer Cypress’s legendary noise
immunity and very low power consumption – an ideal combination for
today’s smartphone market.
“Samsung is an excellent example of a world leader that trusts
Cypress TrueTouch solutions to help them deliver world-class
phones,” said Norm Taffe, executive vice president of Cypress’s
Consumer and Computation Division. “We are building on our
technology and market leadership to ensure that customers such as
Samsung continue to partner with us.”
