Qualcomm's MSM6100 1X Solution Features Industry-Leading Integration of Advanced Multimedia Technologies

date: April 10, 2002

Qualcomm Incorporated today announced details about the MSM6100 Mobile Station Modem (MSM) solution. The third-generation (3G) CDMA2000 1X MSM6100 chipset and system software features radioOne Zero Intermediate Frequency (ZIF) architecture and the ARM926EJ-S core, which incorporates a low-power, high-performance 32-bit reduced instruction set computing (RISC) microprocessor and includes the ARM(R) Jazelle technology for Java acceleration.

Compliant with Interim Standard 2000 (IS-2000) Release A, and backward compatible with IS-95A/B Release 0, the MSM6100 solution incorporates the advanced feature set of Qualcomm's Wireless Internet Launchpad suite of technologies, integrated MPEG-4, MP3 audio decoding, a 2D/3D graphics accelerator for advanced gaming applications, a Compact Media Extension (CMX)/MIDI synthesizer, a digital camera interface, an enhanced LCD interface, and fast JPEG encoding/decoding.

The MSM6100 solution also integrates two low-power, high-performance QDSP4000 DSP cores and supports new, more cost-effective memory architectures. The QDSP4000 DSP eliminates the need for the multimedia companion processor(s) normally required for video-based applications, playing MP3 music files and MIDI synthesizer/CMX functions.

"The MSM6100 chipset and system software solution continues Qualcomm's leadership in driving the worldwide rollout of 3G solutions, enabling cdma2000 1X operators to offer consumers new multimedia, games and other products and services," said Don Schrock, president of Qualcomm CDMA Technologies (QCT). "By delivering on our continued commitment to provide the most sophisticated wireless architectures, QCT is enabling rapid growth for next-generation CDMA wireless services."
