DIALOG SEMICONDUCTOR WINS SECOND SAMSUNG POWER MANAGEMENT AND AUDIO
DESIGN-IN FOR GLOBAL SMARTPHONE PLATFORM
Samsung Galaxy Pocket S5300, the first Android OS smartphone based on the
new Dialog platform win, already shipping
Kirchheim/Teck, Germany, 9 May 2012 - Dialog Semiconductor plc (FWB: DLG),
a provider of highly integrated innovative power management, audio and
short range wireless technologies, has announced that Samsung has adopted
the company's power management and ultra low power audio technology for a
second smartphone platform.
This new, global platform is part of the Samsung Galaxy series of
smartphones that use Dialog ICs. The first phone to use the platform is the
Galaxy Pocket S5300, which recently began to ship in volume. Additional
smartphones from Samsung for global 3G markets from this Dialog platform
win will be rolled out in the next months.
Dialog's continued success at Samsung is largely attributed to it being the
leading company capable of combining in a single package or monolithically
integrating, highly complex system power management functionality that is
fully configurable for multiple platforms, together with low power class D
audio codec technology that includes a digital signal processor for running
advanced audio echo cancelling algorithms. This allows for significant
power and board space savings, whilst delivering the highest quality audio
for Samsung's new smartphones.
The announcement extends Dialog's relationship with Samsung via this second
smartphone platform design win and follows recent Dialog news that it is
shipping system level power management and low power audio ICs for
Samsung's TD-SCDMA based smartphones, which are distributed via China
Mobile, the largest Chinese mobile phone operator. This second platform
win is based on a different application processor than the earlier TD-SCDMA
platform design win.
Jalal Bagherli, CEO of Dialog said: 'We've continued to work closely with
Samsung and ensured these new platform PMICs combine our most power
efficient advanced technologies with best in class audio. This, our second
smartphone platform success with Samsung, a global one, is a powerful
endorsement of Dialog's technology. We remain committed to furthering our
relationship with Samsung as we engage on future Galaxy smartphone
platforms together.'
According to data from analyst house IDC, vendors shipped 144.9 million
smartphones in the first quarter of 2012 with Samsung being the number one
vendor shipping over 42 million smartphones in that period, and holding a
29.1% market share.
