Atmel has announced that their maXTouch mXT224S controller is powering the touchscreen in the recently launched Samsung Galaxy S III mini smartphone. The Galaxy S III mini offers a super AMOLED (active-matrix organic light-emitting diode) 4-inch WVGA display in an 800 x 480 resolution touchscreen powered by Atmel's maXTouch mXT224S controller. With Atmel maXTouch technology, users can enjoy a thinner touchscreen with highly responsive, flawless touch along with lower power consumption and better accuracy in rejecting unintended touches. Samsung's Galaxy S III mini includes a dual-core processor running on Android's 4.1 Jelly-Bean operating system and features a 5-megapixel camera. "Samsung's new Galaxy S III mini is ideal for users that want a robust touchscreen in a traditional 4-inch screen," said Binay Bajaj, director of marketing, Atmel Corporation. "Samsung offers a full range of superior products with touchscreens ranging from 4 to 5.3 inches. We look forward to powering the touchscreens for more of Samsung's state-of-the-art devices with our maXTouch technologies." Atmel
