Datang Selects Comsys' GSM/GPRS Solution for its Cellular Baseband Product Line.BEIJING -- Datang Microelectronics Technologies Co Ltd (DMT See DSL. ), a leading chip manufacturer in China, announced today, that it has selected Comsys' GSM/GPRS software baseband IP (Intellectual Property) platform for its cellular baseband product line. The solution will enable DMT to accelerate time-to-market of COMIP(TM) chipset that supports TD-SCDMA TD-SCDMA Time Division Synchronous Code Division Multiple Access , GSM and GPRS (General Packet Radio Service) The first high-speed digital data service provided by cellular carriers that used the GSM technology. GPRS added a packet-switched channel to GSM, which uses dedicated, circuit-switched channels for voice conversations. standards. DMT will incorporate Comsys' GSM/GPRS full layer 1 solution in its COMIP(TM) SoC product line, starting from the COMIP(TM) PRO platform. The integrated solution will enable handset manufacturers using DMT's COMIP(TM) to design multi-standard handsets supporting the complete range of GSM technologies. GSM based network is the most prevalent technology used in China today, with a subscriber base of over 300 million. DMT's product line will be released to market early 2006. Comsys' solution includes a full GSM/GPRS layer 1 software. Designed specifically as a full multi-protocol system, the solution eliminates inefficiencies and faults that typically result from patches on legacy solutions. It provides high performance of up to 8dB above standard requirements. Its advanced algorithms enable designers to minimize resource allocation such as memory size, gate count and power, allowing resources to be allocated to other tasks. Elkana Ben-Sinai, Comsys CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization. Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board. commented, "Comsys is proud to be selected by DMT, a leading Chinese telecom equipment & chipset vendor, for its COMIP(TM) PRO chipset. Comsys' solution is designed to support multi-mode architecture and as such, will be easily implemented on DMT's dual mode chip, enabling a smooth path to a 3G network." Yang Yanhui, the Vice President and CTO (Chief Technical Officer) The executive responsible for the technical direction of an organization. See CIO and salary survey. of DMT, said, "We chose Comsys and their IP for the completeness of the solution, as well as the extensive breadth of experience and knowledge of their engineers. Comsys' team is very supportive of our project and we anticipate an extremely productive working relationship." About DMT Datang Microelectronics Technologies Co Ltd. (DMT) is a leading fabless company in China. It is an application solution and service provider in communication IC and SoC design. DMT's smartcards have achieved annual sales of more than 60 million units in 2003 and been used in many areas. DMT is also a technology innovator who developed the first chip for IC card in China. In addition, DMT is also the owner of the first Chinese GSM SIM card, CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access) A method for transmitting simultaneous signals over a shared portion of the spectrum. The foremost application of CDMA is the digital cellular phone technology from QUALCOMM that operates in the 800 MHz band and 1.9 GHz PCS band. UIM UIM User Identity Module UIM User Interface Manager (IBM OS390) UIM Union Internationale Motonautique UIM Underground Infrastructure Management (magazine) card, GPRS/WLAN Dual-module card, etc. The company is developing the chips for 3G mobile communication devices.
