StarChip, experts in designing, qualifying and industrialising Smart Card ICs recently announced that it is currently sampling the SCF670H product, its latest SIM controller designed to tackle the booming 4G/LTE market. The SCF670H is the latest member of a family introduced a few months ago with the SCF335H. This family aims at covering the whole Telecom market from Native to high-end SWP through USIM Java Card and 4G/LTE applications. Following member of this family addressing Native sub-segment will be introduced in a few weeks.
Based on Cortus APS3s 32bit CPU, the SCF670H enables 25Mips@25MHz across a broad spectrum of temperatures and offers advanced low power modes. Alongside a 24KB static RAM it integrates a 670KB unified flash memory that provides robust data retention (>25years) with several hundred millions cycles of endurance thanks to the E3 (ECUBE) mechanisms and is fully compatible with 4FF module packaging. The memory size of the SCF670H can be tailored to customers’ requirements by a simple configuration to be done at the customer premises or on the field.
