DSPC-6th generation Chip> DSPC Unveils 6000 Series Chip for cdma2 by: nbfm (45/M/san diego) 38827 of 38828 DSPC Unveils 6000 Series Chip for cdma2000 Handsets; New D6011 chip brings the power, flexibility and scalability of cdma2000 technology to handsets CUPERTINO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 21, 1999--DSP Communications (NYSE: DSP), a leading one-stop provider of digital wireless technology solutions, today unveiled its first chip and system software solution for the third generation (3G) air interface standard that has been submitted to the International Telecommunications Union (ITU). The D6011 is DSPC's sixth-generation digital baseband processor and the first to target the cdma2000(TM) standard. The DSPC D6011 chip successfully meets the requirements for cdma2000 Phase One, or 1XRTT, set forth by the U.S. Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA). Field trials of the cdma2000 chip are scheduled to begin in early 2000 with commercial production following the trials. "The introduction of DSPC's first cdma2000 chip illustrates our commitment to delivering an alternative cdma2000 solution, including chip and system software," said Paul Washkewicz, General Manager, CDMA Business Unit at DSPC. "DSPC's goal is to keep handset manufacturers and operators on the leading edge of cdma2000 deployment by delivering competitive solutions that will enable the introduction of new 3G services and products." DSPC's next generation D6011 chip meets critical cdma2000 Phase One requirements while ensuring full backward compatibility with existing IS-95A and IS-95B networks. By implementing DSPC's D6011 versatile platform into existing product lines, manufacturers and operators can preserve their investments and maintain services for existing subscribers while gradually migrating to 3G system capability. DSPC will also ensure its plans for the cdma2000 Phase Two chip which will provide backward compatibility with cdma2000 Phase One, IS-95A and IS-95B.
