  • Abstract
    A 0.13 μm 6M CMOS EDGE baseband and multimedia handset SoC features a 6 Mb embedded-DRAM DSP instruction memory to allow dynamic upgrade of DSP software, such as applications downloaded from the network. Full-chip standby current is 690 μA which gives 500 h complete GSM/EDGE terminal autonomy when using an 800 mAh battery.
