HONG KONG - February 13, 2009
Qualcomm Inc., a leading developer and innovator of advanced wireless technologies, products and services, today announced the new Mobile Station Modem (MSM) MSM7227 chipset designed to enable high-performance, sub-$150 Smartphones.
The MSM7227 solution will offer advanced processing and rich multimedia while utilizing HSDPA/HSUPA for broadband data speeds over 3G networks. It also can support all leading mobile operating systems including Android, Symbian S60, Windows Mobile and BREW Mobile Platform.
“We see a significant opportunity to bring the best features of today’s Smartphones to the mass-market segment,” says Alex Katouzian, Vice President of Product Management, Qualcomm CDMA Technologies. “Our new MSM7227 chipset offers manufacturers an attractive blend of performance and price, software re-use from the prior MSM7xxx-series products, and support for the industry’s leading mobile operating systems.”
The new MSM7227 chipset features a 600MHz applications processor with a floating point unit, 320MHz application DSP, 400MHz modem processor, hardware-accelerated 3D graphics, integrated Bluetooth 2.1 and GPS, 8 megapixel camera and 30 fps WVGA video encode and decode and display support.
Manufacturers already using Qualcomm’s MSM7xxx-series chipsets can transition easily to the MSM7227 platform as the software is virtually identical and the package pin layout is very similar. The MSM7227 chipset offers a small 12x12mm footprint and lower power consumption than the previous MSM7xxx-series chips.
The MSM7227 chipset is sampling now and commercial Smartphones based on the chip are expected to launch later this year.
Qualcomm Inc. (Nasdaq: QCOM) is a leader in developing and delivering innovative digital wireless communications products and services based on CDMA and other advanced technologies. Headquartered in San Diego, Calif. Qualcomm is included in the S&P 100 Index, the S&P 500 Index and is a 2008 FORTUNE 500 company.
