S-GOLD2™-Multimedia Engine with
Advanced EDGE Modem Functionality
S - G O L D 2 ^TM i s t h e l a t e s t m e m b e r of Infineon’s
successful S-GOLD^® baseband family. It combines advanced EDGE
modem technology with the latest multimedia functions required for
tomorrow’s mobile phones. Its unique architecture makes S-GOLD2^TM
the ideal fit for feature-enhanced terminals, allowing for minimum cost
system solutions at minimum space requirements.
Centered around the powerful ARM^®926 CPU, S-GOLD2^TM provides
the horsepower needed for power-greedy software applications.
Additionally it hosts on-chip hardware for the latest multimedia
features, such as high-resolution display interface, dedicated camera
interface, hardware support for MPEG4 encoding, Java hardware
accelerator, and a large number of connectivity peripherals. MMS for
still picture and video, 3D gaming, Java applications, 3GPP compliant
video streaming are just a few of the latest applications that are easily
supported with S-GOLD2^TM.
S-GOLD2^TM’s high integration level of the key feature set keeps system
size and cost at a minimum. To accommodate for more demanding
feature requirements S-GOLD2^TM can easily be upgraded with multime-
dia ICs via its standardized multimedia interface. Its architecture
provides the scalability needed to enable cost-efficient as well as
top-of-the-line phones with a single baseband IC.
Combined with Infineon’s SMARTi^TM RF devices and S/M POWER^TM power
management ICs, S-GOLD2^TM allows for a true 3-chip quad-band EDGE
solution.
