SAN JOSE, Calif., Jan. 7, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- QuickLogic
Corporation (NASDAQ: QUIK), a developer of ultra-low power
multi-core voice-enabled SoCs, embedded FPGA IP, and Endpoint AI
solutions, today announced that its ultra-low power EOS™ S3
SoC has been selected by Kyocera for its Torque G04
smartphone. The Torque G04 is specifically ruggedized for active
outdoor work and play applications, including water
sports.
Kyocera chose the QuickLogic EOS S3 SoC for its always-on
multi-core processing capability, which enabled the implementation
of Kyocera's Android v9.0 (Pie) compliant sensor fusion algorithms.
The heterogeneous architecture of the EOS S3 enabled Kyocera to
partition their proprietary software across the various cores in
order to optimize battery life for their LifeLogger
application. This feature is critical for enabling longer
battery life for the extreme outdoor work and play use-cases for
which the Torque G04 was designed. Additionally, the flexible
embedded FPGA (eFPGA) logic in the EOS S3 platform will be
programmed to add special use-case features.
"We are thrilled the EOS S3 has been selected for the Torque G04
smartphone," says Brian Faith,
president and CEO of QuickLogic. "Kyocera is a recognized
innovator globally, and we look forward to expanding our already
long-standing collaborative relationship.
Availability
The Torque G04 smartphone, the first in a
series of smartphones from Kyocera to integrate the QuickLogic EOS
S3 SoC, is available now. For more information, please visit
