Ericsson & Compal sign ODM agreement
Ericsson and Taiwan's Compal Communications have signed a license agreement for the U310 mobile platform, a triple-band WCDMA mobile platform from Ericsson Mobile Platforms.
The U310 platform is designed for mass-market deployment. It incorporates a quad-band EDGE and triple-band WCDMA radio solution, which makes it possible to design mobile devices that are suitable for the global market. With a high level of silicon integration, it allows handset manufacturers to launch smaller WCDMA phones.
Robert Puskaric, head of Ericsson's mobile platform business, says, " Compal Communications is one of the leading original design manufacturers (ODMs) in the world. With the U310, Compal Communications will be able to offer attractive products incorporating the latest technology for mass-market deployment, with short time to market, making Compal Communications highly competitive in the mobile device arena."
