DoNews 12月5日 高通公司今日宣布，其全资子公司美国高通技术公司（QTI）为高通骁龙S4系列移动处理器增添两款新的芯片组：MSM8226和MSM8626芯片组及其对应的高通参考设计（QRD）版本。这两款集成了四核CPU的骁龙S4处理器将为大众市场3G手机带来高品质的多媒体和网络连接功能。MSM8226和MSM8626处理器配备强大的Adreno 305 GPU，支持1080p摄录和播放以及高达1300万像素的摄像头，经优化而为大众市场智能手机带来震撼的图形效果和超长的电池续航能力。两款处理器将于2013年第二季度前向客户出样，同时支持UMTS、CDMA 和TD-SCDMA制式。

　　MSM8226和MSM8626处理器在美国高通技术公司上一代四核产品的基础上，采用28纳米技术工艺，并将继续支持双卡双待和双卡双通等多SIM卡功能。除了提供四核CPU处理能力，这两款处理器还配备全新的WTR2605多模射频收发器，并针对中国市场的具体要求进行了优化，如支持TD-SCDMA、CDMA 1xAdv和HSPA+等网络制式。WTR2605收发器具备集成的高性能GPS内核，支持格洛纳斯（GLONASS）和北斗卫星导航系统。WTR2605收发器还特别为低功耗而优化，比上一代产品功耗降低40%，尺寸缩小60%。

　　高通技术公司执行副总裁兼高通移动计算（QMC）联席总裁克里斯蒂安诺？阿蒙表示：“骁龙S4家族的扩展，扩大了我们为大众市场智能手机提供高性能、低功耗方案的领先地位。产品路线图的扩展为我们的客户提供了差异化功能组合，使他们能够为价格敏感型消费者打造具有吸引力的智能手机。”

　　美国高通技术公司还将发布MSM8226和MSM8626处理器的QRD版本。QRD计划为终端厂商提供全面的手机开发资源和丰富的软硬件供应商生态系统，这些供应商针对基于QRD的终端提供经过测试和验证的元器件和应用。QRD计划为客户提供他们所需的一切，使他们能够快速地向大众市场推出差异化的智能手机。截至目前，高通公司已与40多家OEM厂商合作发布了超过100款基于QRD平台的产品，另有100多款正在开发中。这两款全新的骁龙处理器QRD版本——QRD8226和QRD8626——也将于2013年第二季度前出样。(完)


Qualcomm's Snapdragon S4 chips are flying off the shelves so fast these days that the company's had to enlist other manufacturing companies just to keep up with the demand. That's not keeping the San Diego-based firm from further expanding its entry-level quad-core lineup, however, as Qualcomm just unveiled the MSM8226 and MSM8626 CPUs.

Each features an Adreno 305 GPU capable of 1080p video recording and playback and support for up to 13-megapixel shooters. The 28nm silicon also packs dual SIM support, multi-modal radios tuned to Chinese TD-SCDMA, CDMA and HSPA+ networks and has GPS, GLONASS and Beidou on board as well. Aside from the broad frequency coverage, the new radio promises 40 percent power savings and is 60 percent smaller than Qualcomm's older comparable wireless transceivers. Want to know more? PR awaits after the break.

Qualcomm Technologies Expands Line of Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Processors with Quad-Core CPUs for High-Volume Smartphones

MSM8226, MSM8626 and Reference Design Counterparts Add Depth to Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Roster and Incorporate New WTR2605 Multimode Radio

SAN DIEGO, Dec. 4, 2012 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Qualcomm Incorporated (NASDAQ: QCOM) today announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary, Qualcomm Technologies, Inc., is adding two chipsets to the Qualcomm Snapdragon™ S4 family of mobile processors, the MSM™8226 and MSM8626 chipsets, along with Qualcomm Reference Design versions of both. These Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 processors with quad-core CPUs will bring premium multimedia and connectivity features to high-volume 3G handsets. Featuring the powerful Adreno™ 305 GPU, 1080p capture and playback, and up to a 13 megapixel camera, the MSM8226 and MSM8626 processors are optimized to deliver visually stunning graphics and exceptionally long battery life to high-volume smartphones. Both processors will be ready for customer sampling by the second quarter of 2013 for UMTS, CDMA and TD-SCDMA.

Building on Qualcomm Technologies' previous quad-core offering, both the MSM8226 and MSM8626 processors are fabricated using the 28nm technology node and will continue to support multi-SIM capabilities with Dual SIM, Dual Standby; and Dual SIM, Dual Active. In addition to quad-core CPU processing power, these chipsets incorporate the new WTR2605 multi-mode radio transceiver, optimized to address China specific requirements such as support for TD-SCDMA, CDMA 1xAdv and HSPA+. The WTR2605 transceiver comes with an integrated, high-performance GPS core with GLONASS and Beidou support. Optimized for low power consumption, the WTR2605 transceiver offers 40 percent power savings and 60 percent smaller footprint compared to previous generations.

"The expansion of our Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 family extends our leadership in performance and low power for the high-volume smartphones," said Cristiano Amon, executive vice president and co-president of mobile and computing products, Qualcomm Technologies. "This expanded roadmap provides our customers with a differentiated feature set upon which to build compelling smartphones for budget-conscious consumers."

Qualcomm Technologies will also be releasing Qualcomm Reference Design (QRD) versions of both MSM8226 and MSM8626 processors. The QRD program provides device manufacturers with comprehensive handset development resources and access to an ecosystem of hardware and software vendors, whose components and applications have been tested and validated for QRD-based devices. QRD customers are offered everything they need to rapidly deliver differentiated smartphones to the mass market. There have been more than 100 public QRD-based product launches to date in collaboration with more than 40 OEMs, and there are currently more than 100 designs in progress. The QRD versions of these particular Qualcomm Snapdragon processors-the QRD8226 and QRD8626-will also be available for sampling by the second quarter of 2013.
