Provides comprehensive and efficient solutions for medium and high speed IoT applications
Shanghai, China, February 7, 2024–VeriSilicon (688521.SH) today announced that it has partnered with Innobase, a wireless communications technology and chip provider, to jointly launch a 5G RedCap/4G LTE dual-mode modem solution. The chip powering this new modem solution from Innobase has been taped out and verified, is currently in volume production, and will be officially released to the global market soon.
5G Reduced Capability (RedCap) is a cellular technology for IoT services defined by the international standards organization 3GPP in 5G Release 17. It is aimed at medium and high speed IoT application scenarios and together with 4G LTE forms a complete cellular IoT ecosystem.
The co-launch of this modem solution comes as part of a strategic partnership between VeriSilicon and Innobase, allowing VeriSilicon to further expand its wireless communications IP portfolio and offer both 4G and 5G modem IP solutions to customers. It will be. The companies will also offer customers a complete set of user equipment (UE) reference designs covering critical components such as radio frequency (RF) transceivers and power management chipsets.
Lu Wenbo, Senior Vice President of Innobase, said: This enables us to provide our customers with cutting-edge IoT communication connectivity solutions. We have developed the world’s first commercial IP that meets the 5G RedCap/4G LTE dual-mode communication standard and have completed chip verification for mass production. RedCap communication modules support data and voice services for various application scenarios, including affordable 5G smartphones, wearables, internet-connected smart vehicles, industrial IoT, video surveillance, and smart grids. ”
“4G and 5G technologies are mainstream mobile communication standards with long lifecycles and wide range of application scenarios. Innobase pioneered the launch and mass production of 5G RedCap/4G LTE dual-mode modem chips, which It demonstrates Innobase’s strong R&D and product commercialization capabilities,” said Wiseway Wang, senior vice president and general manager of custom silicon platforms at VeriSilicon. . “VeriSilicon is dedicated to the development and industrialization of low-power, high-performance IoT wireless communications technologies. Building on VeriSilicon’s accumulated expertise in RF technology and proprietary ZSP digital signal processor (DSP) IP, We have developed a comprehensive wireless communications solution that incorporates RF IP, baseband IP, and software protocol stacks. Leveraging the benefits of our advanced 22nm FD-SOI process for low power consumption and high RF performance, we We can provide all-in-one wireless system designs that support a variety of technology standards and applications such as Wi-Fi, cellular IoT, multi-mode satellite navigation and positioning. These solutions can be integrated into multiple customer SoCs in mass production. It has been.”
