Samsung Ships Homegrown CDMA Chips
Apr 14, 2003, 8:45 AM by (staff)
Samsung this month will ship its first phone using its own CDMA chipset. The company is aiming to reduce its dependence on Qualcomm, who has supplied all of the primary chips in Samsung CDMA phones to date. The initial model will be sold by Korea Telecom Freetel (KTF), a Korean carrier, although the company plans to export phones using its own chipset by the end of the year. Samsung is also developing its own WCDMA chips and expects to launch handsets using those chips in the near future. World-leader Nokia also produces its own CDMA chips.
