March 05 2014 - 8:00AM
RDA Microelectronics, Inc. (Nasdaq:RDA) ("
RDA" or
the "
Company"), a fabless semiconductor company
that designs, develops and markets wireless systems-on-chip and
radio-frequency (RF) semiconductors for cellular, connectivity and
broadcast applications, today announced volume production of its
high performance RDA8851GL, which integrates GPS technology with
its latest GSM/GPRS single chip solution.
The RDA8851GL SoC expands the usage model of GPS applications by
offering a small footprint, low power consumption and an expandable
feature set, making it ideally suited for applications such as
monitoring, remote control and positioning. With the entire
hardware module the size of a postage stamp, it can be widely used
in a variety of consumer electronic products, especially wearable
devices and Internet of Things (IOT) applications.
"The 8851GL expands our addressable market within the consumer
space and demonstrates our technology capabilities for creating
highly integrated, high performance devices in a small form
factor," said Shuran Wei, CEO of RDA Microelectronics. "This
product builds upon RDA's market leading success with its GSM/GPRS
single chip solution for feature phones, which has shipped more
than 200 million units. Integrating GPS positioning with a fully
mature GPRS modem further strengthens the diversification of
location service characteristics and enhances the scope of GPS
positioning information for mobile data applications. With a
flexible hardware interface and programmability that can support
sensor hub-type computation, the RDA8851GL is highly suited for IOT
and wearable device applications."
The RDA8851GL integrates advanced RF designs, a baseband signal
processing engine, quad band RF transceiver, power management unit,
bluetooth and GPS receiver on a single 55nm chip. The RDA8851GL is
one of the first fully integrated chipset using CMOS technology,
which reduces the bill of materials and simplifies the design
process for system manufacturers for rapid adoption. It also
incorporates extensive connectivity options for system
scalability.
