Qualcomm announces new Dual-CPU Single Chip Solutions for 3G
May 23, 2003
Qualcomm announced a new generation of powerful dual-Central Processing
Unit (CPU) single chip solutions - the 7xxx family - to address the growing
need for more cost-effective, high-performance solutions that drive full-featured
3G multimedia handsets for consumers and high data rate devices for enterprise
customers. In designing the MSM7xxx family, Qualcomm has brought together
its core strengths in wireless chipset design; modem, CPU and Digital
Signal Processor (DSP) expertise; system software and highly integrated
applications engines for future 3G wireless products.
Samples of chipsets in this series are expected to ship in 2004.
"The 7xxx series addresses the growing consumer demand for higher-performance
wireless devices delivering high-quality audio-visual and 2D/3D gaming,
as well as the emerging wireless enterprise data market," said Sanjay
Jha, president of Qualcomm CDMA Technologies. "This new family of complete
solutions ensures reduced design and development times, stimulating a
greater number of affordable, high-end devices to spur mass-market adoption
of wireless data services."
Each MSM7xxx chip incorporates a dual-CPU architecture with one processor
optimized for multimode modems and time-critical functions, and the second
available as a closely-coupled general purpose processor. The various
multimode chipsets in the MSM7xxx family support deployed 3G wireless
standards, including CDMA2000 1X/1xEV-DO and WCDMA modes, and are fully
compatible with GPRS, GSM and IS-95 standards. New modem technologies
supported by this series are CDMA2000 Revision D, HSDPA, 802.11 and integrated
GPS.
The MSM7xxx family provides the most effective system solution for full-function
CDMA terminals, providing optimization of power, cost and performance.
This highly integrated new architecture enables design of higher performance
wireless handsets for mainstream acceptance, while at the same time keeping
overall cost and power requirements to a minimum.
In each MSM7xxx solution, the general purpose processor supports the
high-performance multimedia application engines that run on high-resolution
displays and easily integrates with Qualcomm's BREW application environment
and third party operating systems. With the BREW routines, protocols and
tools, handset manufacturers and developers can create embedded wireless
applications and BREW-based products more quickly and easily.
As with the MSM6xxx family, this new generation of chipset solutions
also supports Qualcomm's radioOne Zero Intermediate Frequency (ZIF) architecture,
providing reduced bill of materials and more cost-effective solutions
for multimode, multiband 3G wireless devices.
