A complete system solution that operates on all GSM, GPRS and UMTS networks worldwide, QCT's MSM6250™ Mobile Station Modem™ (MSM™) chipset and system software offers a rich feature set of multimedia data applications and supports state-of-the-art position location capabilities. The MSM6250 device supports streaming video, audio, still-image and video encoding and decoding, 2D and 3D graphics acceleration, and Java® acceleration. It also integrates a megapixel camera interface, complete Bluetooth™ baseband support, and gpsOne™ position location technology. The MSM6250 is a member of QCT's MSM6xxx™ family of 3G chipsets that offer more powerful processors, high-quality video, audio and graphics technologies and high-speed data connectivity. The MSM6250 solution delivers superior performance while reducing complexity, cost and board-space requirements.
The MSM6250 chipset also supports the Binary Runtime Environment for Wireless™ (BREW™) platforms. With BREW routines, protocols and tools, handset manufacturers and developers can develop embedded wireless applications and BREW-based products more quickly and easily. The MSM6250 device integrates the ARM926EJ-S processor, offering the ARM® Jazelle™ Java™ hardware accelerator, two low-power, highperformance QDSP4000™ Digital Signal Processor (DSP) cores and a wide-band stereo codec for support of enhanced digital audio applications. The QDSP4000 core eliminates the need for the multimedia companion processors normally required for video and audio-based applications, playing MP3 music files, MIDI synthesizer, video and still-image record and playback, and 2D/3D graphics functions. By removing the need for costly application co-processors and memory subsystems, the MSM6250 solution reduces bill-of-materials (BOM) costs and increases standby and talk times.
