According to Qualcomm, "The cost and time-to-market advantages of the single-chip solutions will help drive wireless broadband and 3G adoption in mass markets around the world. Qualcomm claims that the high levels of integration in the QSC6240 and QSC6270 solutions significantly reduce bill-of-materials costs and discrete components, delivering board-area savings of up to 50 percent. The devices are based on 65nm CMOS process technology and "significantly improve power efficiency for longer talk/standby times and an enhanced multimedia user experience," according to Qualcomm. Sampling of both chip is scheduled for the third quarter of 2007.{moscomment} |
