TI selects Wipro as OMAP technology center

Texas Int. Inc. will collaborate with India-based Wipro Technologies to serve as Asia's first OMAP technology center. The new center is expected to enable application software developers in India and other countries to create wireless applications.

Wipro will help extend development support for wireless handset manufacturers who use TI's OMAP application processors and modem technology for 2.5G and 3G mobile phones, PDAs, and mobile Internet appliances.

"Wipro has extensive experience optimizing software, systems integration and product support for DSP-based wireless systems, which extends TI's capabilities to support 2.5G and 3G wireless device manufacturers and OMAP application developers," said Biswadip Mitra, managing director at TI.
