Marvell announced it will showcase a full suite of
China’s 3G TD-SCDMA solutions at PT/EXPO Comm China 2011.
The lineup includes smartphones, tablets and mobile
hotspots powered by Marvell’s PXA920 single-chip product line and the PXA1202,
the industry’s first Downlink Dual Carrier (DLDC) TD-HSPA+ modem.
Marvell will demonstrate a total of 16 TD smart devices
that feature its single-chip solutions from leading global OEMs: ASUS, Hisense,
Huawei, Guangdong Mobile, Motorola, RIM, Samsung, Sharp, Sony Ericsson, Yulong
and ZTE.
I believe the breakthrough in our China’s 3G TD-SCDMA
technology with the largest mobile carrier, China Mobile, in the largest mobile
market, is a major milestone and testimony to our vision. When China Mobile
began its mission to build an advanced and affordable smartphone more than four
years ago, Marvell was the major silicon partner who committed to the program
because we believed in China Mobile’s vision and bright future of this great
opportunity,” said Weili Dai, co-founder, Marvell.
Marvell has partnered with the TD
Industry Alliance (TDIA) at the show to demonstrate the rapid adoption and
product implementation of TD-SCDMA. With its technological achievements and
commitment to innovation, Marvell has been a strong supporter and contributor
to the evolution of the TD-SCDMA industry in China.
Other government, telecom operators and Marvell partners
such as MIIT and China Mobile will also be in attendance, making the event the
de facto meeting place for decision-makers in the TD ecosystem.
All of the products to be displayed ranging from
entry-level smart devices to mid-level devices with rich multimedia functions
and 3D graphics feature Marvell’s PXA 920 family of silicon, including:
The PXA920 – The industry’s first single-chip TD solution
designed for multimedia-centric handsets featuring support for both TD-SCDMA
and GSM/EDGE and now shipping in more than 10 devices.
The PXA918 – Tailor-made for entry-level smart devices,
featuring 55 nm technology, 624 Mhz processors and rich multimedia functions.
The PXA920H – Designed for mid- and high-end smart
devices featuring 55 nm technology, a 1Ghz processor and support for 720p video
and 250mpps 3D graphics.
Marvell will also showcase the industry’s first DLDC
TD-HSPA+ Modem PXA1202, a pivotal milestone in advancing China’s TD-SCDMA
standard, which can help to achieve 4X data rate increase on TD-SCDMA networks.
Featuring 40 nm technology and backwards compatible with previous generations
of TD-SCDMA network equipment, the PXA1202 supports DLDC, 64QAM and TS0
enhancement technologies.
Marvell recently announced the launch
of the Marvell PXA1801 single-chip LTE world modem. The PXA1801 single-chip LTE
world modem combines Marvell’s communications and silicon expertise to enable
the design of a wide array of high-performance, low-power Internet-connected
devices including: smartphones, tablets, laptops, automotive, set-top-boxes and
TVs.
The PXA1801 combines 3GPP R9 Cat 4 FDD-LTE (Frequency Division
Duplexing Long Term Evolution) and TDD-LTE (Time Division Duplexing Long Term
Evolution) with R8 DC-HSPA+ (Dual Carrier Evolved High-Speed Packet Access) for
both WB-CDMA (Wideband Code Division Multiple Access) and TD-SCDMA (Time
Division Synchronous Code Division Multiple Access) standards and EDGE
(Enhanced Data rates for GSM Evolution) delivering the highest data rate
available in any given geography.
