Sources: Samsung and Marvell to provide parts for Apple iPhone
Chris Caso of Freidman, Billings, Ramsey & Co has claimed in a report that Samsung and Marvell are the two companies which would be supplying parts for the recently unveiled Apple iPhone mobile phone product.
As per the report, Samsung managed to beat out Broadcom for orders for the main chips in Apple’s new mobile phone.
The South Korean tech giant seems to have won the orders for the applications processor and the video processor. Broadcom currently provides similar parts for the Apple iPod range of digital music players.
Caso further write that Broadcom would still be providing the touch screen technology. His sources for this information are unidentified sources at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas.
The report further said that Marvell Technology Group will supply an internet connection chip while Infineon Technologies is providing the radio chip that connects the handset to cell-phone networks.
