Qualcomm launches entry-level TD-SCDMA chip, saying China's LTE development needs are urgent

The 2013 Qualcomm Partner Summit was held in Shenzhen. Qualcomm announced the addition of six dual-core and quad-core processors to its Snapdragon â„¢ 200 series processors, thereby enhancing Qualcomm's entry-level product lineup. The newly added Snapdragon 200 processor is manufactured using a 28-nanometer process and supports HSPA + (data transfer rate up to 21Mbps) and TD-SCDMA. The new Snapdragon 200 series processors (8x10 and 8x12) and corresponding reference design (QRD) versions are expected to be available later this year.

Jeff Lorbeck, senior vice president of product management at Qualcomm Technologies, said: "By expanding the Snapdragon 200 series, Qualcomm continues to strengthen the dual-core and quad-core processor product portfolio for entry-level smartphones and tablets, thereby integrating key processing technologies and The modem features extend to all Snapdragon processor levels. We are pleased to provide our customers with the widest range of 3G technology and excellent performance and power consumption to help them launch many innovative smartphones for the mass market. "

Talking about the future product roadmap to support TD-SCDMA chips, Jeff Lorbeck said: "On TD-SCDMA, we can only talk about 8X10 and 8X12 that have been announced today, but TD-SCDMA products will develop quickly. Everyone As everyone knows, China Mobile has set a sales target of 120 million terminals this year, and several mobile phones launched by Qualcomm ’s partner Hisense today also support TD-SCDMA. In the future Qualcomm will be multi-mode chips. "

At the summit of the day, Tianyu Longtong released the Touch 1 smart terminal based on the QRD platform using the Snapdragon 400 8930 processor, supporting LTE TDD / 3G multi-mode, which is also the first 4G product of the terminal manufacturer. In addition, Hisense has also released smartphones T9 and U9 that use the QRD platform to support TD-SCDMA and WCDMA, respectively.

Previously, Nokia and Samsung have launched high-end TD-SCDMA mobile phones based on Qualcomm chips. Last year, the Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Pro MSM8960T dual-core processor gave the Nokia 920T a strong heart; this year, the Samsung Galaxy S4 China Mobile version, which is on sale, uses the Qualcomm 600 quad-core chip.

With the support of Qualcomm chips, the TD-SCDMA camp will undoubtedly grow stronger, and the LTE chip solution based on the common platform is based on Qualcomm. Qualcomm has launched a third-generation LTE solution that maintains a competitive advantage in carrier aggregation, capacity loading, and power consumption efficiency. In fact, in November last year, Qualcomm's third-generation Gobi TMLTE MDM9X25 chip has been sampled to customers. The chip supports all standards of the existing network, and supports HSPA + version 10 and LTE Advanced, integrated Wi-Fi 802.11ac.

However, for the research and development of LTE terminals during the year, Qualcomm is unable to give accurate information for the time being. "Everyone knows that Qualcomm is not the only supplier of chip products. However, almost all customers in China urgently need to develop on LTE. China Mobile will launch LTE products in the second half of this year; many terminal manufacturers also need to come up with Their LTE products are sold in overseas markets. According to expectations, from now to 2017, LTE will have a compound annual growth rate of nearly 70%, so all customers will have further development in LTE in the future. "Jeff Lorbeck said.

According to Qualcomm, the summit held today attracted more than a thousand software developers, hardware component providers, mobile phone manufacturers, operators and distributor representatives, media and analysts in 19 countries, including China, 60 Hardware and software vendors showcased their customized and optimized solutions for QRD. The number of people on site exceeded 1,500. Compared with the last summit half a year ago, the number of exhibitors has increased by half.
