Silicon Motion wins Korean handset OEM order for transceiver
Silicon Motion Technology has successfully completed testing of the FC7880, its new LTE-Advanced transceiver, and secured its first smartphone design win with a Korean handset OEM.
Production is anticipated to begin late in the second quarter of 2014.
The company designs and market NAND Flash controllers for solid state storage devices and specialty RF ICs solutions for mobile devices.
Silicon Motion claims its FC7880 low power, multi-mode diversity LTE-Advanced (3GPP Release 10) transceiver is the only single chip, SAW-less solution that monolithically integrates four receivers and one transmitter (4x1 MIMO) and is also the smallest LTE-Advanced transceiver available today.
This transceiver enables carrier aggregation, covers forty-one prescribed spectrum bands and supports GSM, GPRS, EDGE, HSPA, HSPA+, TD-SCDMA, FDD-LTE and TD-LTE.
"We are excited about supplying our Korean handset OEM with our first LTE-Advanced transceiver solution and providing our partner with the most advanced transceiver technology in the market today. We look forward to their success and to extending our partnership," says Wallace Kou, President and CEO of Silicon Motion.
Silicon Motion has been supplying LTE transceivers under its 'FCI' brand since 2010. Its FCI CDMA RF ICs were first introduced in 2001.
