TOKYO-Fujitsu Microelectronics Europe has announced a two-chipset solution for global positioning system/assisted-GPS receivers that generate high performance and low power in wireless handsets.
It consists of a baseband chip and a radio-frequency front-end chip, according to the company. It works in any technology, such as UMTS/W-CDMA, GSM/GPRS, PDC and CDMA, said Fujitsu.
“It is versatile in that a receiver can be initially developed as an autonomous GPS receiver and subsequently software upgraded to A-GPS when assistance becomes available,” said the chipmaker.
