Telegent Mobile TV Receiver Wins International Stevie Award

Telegent Mobile TV Receiver Wins International Stevie Award

TLG1121 selected as Best Telecoms Product at this year's International Business Awards

SUNNYVALE, Calif., July 12 /PRNewswire/ -- Telegent Systems, the company that makes television mobile, today announced that its analog mobile TV receiver, the TLG1121, has won the International Stevie® Award for Best New Product or Service of the Year in Telecommunications, at the seventh annual International Business Awards(SM).

The TLG1121 is the world's first single-chip analog mobile TV receiver based on 65nm CMOS process technology, delivering worldwide support for free-to-air analog TV and FM broadcast reception on mobile devices, enabling consumers to enjoy live television programming while on the go. The TLG1121 reduces package size by 25 percent when compared to the previous generation product while consuming 25 percent less power from the battery. The smaller package size provides manufacturers with greater flexibility in PCB layout, enabling smaller, sleeker handset designs. Reduction in power consumption translates to longer continuous viewing time for consumers of their favorite live broadcast programs.

"Telegent is committed to continually enhancing our mobile TV solutions to increase ease of design for manufacturers and to deliver the best user experience to consumers," said Ford Tamer, chief executive offer of Telegent Systems. "Telegent has now shipped more than 80 million chips globally, expanding access to broadcast television, including regions of developing markets where conventional television sets may be a luxury shared across households. The International Business Award recognizes Telegent's achievement in providing free-to-air mobile TV to the masses, and we are honored to be named the best product or service in Telecommunications for 2010."

The International Business Awards are the only global, all-encompassing business awards program honoring great performances in business. Recipients of International Stevie Award trophies were selected from more than 1,700 entries received from organizations and individuals in more than 40 countries. Honorees were selected through two rounds of judging by business professionals worldwide.

Nicknamed the Stevie® for the Greek word "crowned," the awards will be presented to winners at a gala dinner on Monday, 27 September in the Ritz-Carlton Hotel in Istanbul, Turkey.
