Altair Semiconductor, a prominent manufacturer of ultra-low power, high performance 4G semiconductors, is using advanced USB connectivity from Jungo Ltd. in its FourGee 3100/6200 Long-Term Evolution (LTE) chipsets.

The FourGee chipsets are integrated in devices such as USB dongles, portable and fixed LTE/WiFi routers, tablets and smartphones. They will be supported by a comprehensive USB connectivity solution from Jungo, comprising both embedded and general purpose software stacks.

Jungo Ltd. is the leading provider of short-range connectivity software solutions for the mobile market. The company’s innovative software enables leading chipset manufacturers, device manufacturers and OEMs to integrate end-to-end local connectivity solutions into their products and bring them rapidly and cost-effectively to market. Smartphones and other mobile devices use USB for power-charging, high-speed data and media transfer and personal area connectivity. Other components in the mobile ecosystem, such as 3G and 4G data-cards and mobile broadband modems, connect to their host devices via USB and high-performance communication drivers.

Altair Semiconductor has deployed Jungo’s USBware™ line of high-quality embedded USB software protocol stacks, and the OS- and platform-agnostic DriverCore™ line, which exposes a variety of native communication interfaces via USB to the different operating systems and platforms.

Altair Semiconductor’s FourGee 3100/6200 LTE chipsets support both FDD and TD-LTE on a single semiconductor and software platform. With throughputs in excess of 100Mbps/50Mbps DL/UL respectively and covering virtually all LTE frequencies, the chipsets provide a power-optimized, robust and cost-effective solution for a wide range of 4G devices.
