MRAM cell technology for embedding
NEC has developed magnetoresistive random access memory cell technology suitable for high speed memory macro embedded in next generation system LSIs.
Adcore-Tech was established in 2006 to carry out the global development, design, and technology licensing of a hardware and software communications platform to manage the core communications functions for mobile handsets targeting third generation (3G/3.5G) and beyond.
The licensed architecture employs multiple small-scale digital signal processors to simultaneously achieve high peak performance, low power consumption, low cost and high portability.
The new architecture further supports the evolution of mobile handsets with higher communication speed and enhanced functionality, by providing a robust solution extendable to HSDPA and HSUPA, and a design that minimises mutual interference between existing systems such as GSM and future systems such as LTE.
