QUALCOMM�s Convergence Platform Chipset Will Change the Way the World Views Wireless

MSM7500 Chipset Breaks Wireless Barriers with Unrivaled Computing Performance for a High-End Multimedia Experience

SAN DIEGO � July 13, 2005 � QUALCOMM Incorporated (Nasdaq: QCOM), pioneer and world leader of Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) digital wireless technology, today announced the sampling of the dual-CPU MSM7500� Convergence Platform single-chip solution, enabling the first generation of converged devices that combine popular consumer electronics with the advanced power of CDMA2000� 1xEV-DO Revision A networks. QUALCOMM's MSM7500 chipset will transform the wireless device into the ultimate personal multimedia experience, enabling devices from high-end PDAs and Smartphones to cost-effective wireless computers to portable video players, music centers, gaming consoles and more. With the processing capacity to match the high data-speed capabilities of Rev. A networks, the MSM7500 chipset creates new markets for the world's most popular consumer devices - including an 8.0 megapixel digital camera, camcorder-like video recorder, VGA resolution gaming, support for major audio and video formats, plus a dedicated applications processor to support the BREW� solution and third-party operating systems - with an integrated single-chipset solution.

�The MSM7500 chipset brings the industry's best personal media experience to wireless, enabling faster, widespread adoption of the high data-rate services that operators and consumers want,� said Dr. Sanjay K. Jha, president of QUALCOMM CDMA Technologies. �By addressing historical performance issues � power, display, speed, form-factor, network support and multimedia functionality � the integrated architecture of the MSM7500 chipset provides OEMs with a solution that does not require separate chips or processors to deliver the next evolution in high-end multimedia.�

The MSM7500 chipset boasts a power-efficient design with a dual-CPU architecture that integrates an ARM11� applications processor and an ARM9� modem processor to deliver the processing power required to run on-demand multimedia content over high-speed Rev. A networks. The MSM7500 chipset will:

  • Deliver high-end multimedia with the integrated Launchpad� suite and BREW support
  • Support high-resolution VGA displays and TV-out to turn wireless handsets into personal media players and leverage the viewing experience of television monitors
  • Provide a high-end gaming experience with an embedded ATI 3D graphics engine that further improves the user experience with 3D user interfaces
  • Expand the Smartphone market with support for Linux� and other third-party operating systems
  • Provide support for wireless peripherals such as WiFi, Bluetooth, QUALCOMM's FLO� solution, as well as popular broadcast standards


The MSM7500 chipset supports QUALCOMM's Launchpad suite of advanced multimedia, connectivity, position location, user interface and removable storage functionality, and QUALCOMM's BREW solution, which enables the download and monetization of advanced applications and content, allowing operators and OEMs to differentiate their products and services and increase revenues. QUALCOMM's chipsets are also compatible with the Java� runtime environment (J2ME�) which can be built entirely on the chipset as an extension to the BREW client.
