Samsung Electronics is pushing the 5G communications modem market. Started mass production of communication modem chips, RF transceiver processing chips and power modulation chips, prompting the application of 5G commercialization solutions.
South Korea's Samsung Electronics is not only the world's largest smartphone manufacturer, but also produces and sells mobile phone chips like MediaTek. According to the latest news from foreign media, Samsung Electronics released a number of mobile phone 5G chips on April 4 as a 5G commercial communication solution. The company also said that the chip has begun mass production.
According to foreign media reports, this Friday, Samsung Electronics plans to cooperate with Korean operators to launch the world's first 5G mobile phone, the Galaxy S10 5G, in Korea. On Thursday, Samsung released a number of 5G chips, which can be used for the upcoming 5G high-end devices.
In addition to the previously introduced Exynos Modem 5100, Samsung also introduced the new single-chip RF transceiver Exynos RF5500 and the modulator solution Exynos SM5800.
According to reports, the Exynos RF 5500 supports all existing communication networks from 2G to 5G on a single chip. In addition, the Exynos SM 5800 enables high-speed data transmission within the device while still helping to increase power efficiency by 30%.
Samsung said the two chipsets will provide mobile device manufacturers with the most suitable network communication solution for the 5G era.
"Our multi-mode solutions - Exynos Modem 5100, Exynos RF 5500 and Exynos SM 5800 - will enable powerful and energy-efficient 5G performance and network versatility, allowing users to stay connected wherever they are." Samsung Electronics The person in charge of the "system LSI" business of the semiconductor business unit said this.
It is reported that the technical breakthroughs of ExynosRF5500 and SM5800 were proposed and recognized at the International Solid State Circuit Conference held in San Francisco in February this year.
It is not known when Samsung Electronics’ 5G chips will provide procurement for the smartphone industry.
Samsung Electronics is the world's largest consumer electronics group. In addition to consumer-oriented smartphones and tablets, Samsung Electronics, like Nokia and Huawei, has a telecom equipment manufacturing business that can provide operators with 5G solutions. .
Samsung's R&D and manufacturing capabilities in mobile phone chips have also become a strong competitive advantage for its smartphone business. For example, at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Spain, many mobile phone manufacturers released 5G mobile phones, but the sales time is unknown, and Samsung will release 5G mobile phones in batches on Friday. Next, the company is also preparing to sell 5G mobile phones in overseas markets such as the United States.
The advance card position of 5G mobile phones will also help Samsung and Apple compete in high-end mobile phones. After the lawsuit war between Apple and Qualcomm, Intel can only rely on Intel to provide 5G modems, and Intel's strength in 5G chips lags behind Qualcomm. According to several media reports, Apple can only launch iPhones that support 5G at the earliest next year.
Apple has been able to develop application processors in smartphones in the past. The company is ready to have modem development capabilities like Samsung Electronics. It is said that Apple has established a large R&D design team internally, but when it can launch its own MODEM, it is not allowed. And know.
