Analyst: Apple's own design baseband chip is very "arduous" task

Deutsche Bank Analyst Brian Modoff released an investor report on Monday, in the report he mentioned that re-developing multi-mode baseband chips not only need to invest a lot of money, but also take a long time. He predicts that Apple will take the least 5 years after getting a top talent. In addition, the design and development of the baseband chip requires 1,000 left and right engineers. He believes that this task is "very difficult" for Apple. Modoff said: "Apple may not want to develop a new baseband chip in your own, but want to try to better integrate the baseband chip with your own application processor, or develop their own WiFi chip." Last week, JP Morgan analyst Rod Hall also made a similar comment, he believes that Apple's own development baseband chip is too difficult. Hall believes earliest to wait until 2015 can see that the Apple baseband chip appears in the iPhone. Earlier this month, there was a report that Apple hired a number of advanced radio engineers from Boyong and Qualcomm. In the past three years, Apple hires at least 30 intermediate and advanced baseband software and hardware engineers from Qualcomm and Boyong. In addition, the Apple official website is also recruiting 50 talents with RF chip design. However, the number of these engineers is still too small, and Modoff believes that at least 1000 is an engineer to accelerate baseband chip development. The baseband chip is a "brain" of modern equipment wireless communication, and the transceiver controls the transmission and reception of the wireless signal in the antenna. The baseband chip is a component that communicates between the device and the signal tower. Related reading: Qualcomm is goodbye?
