Samsung Exynos Modem 5100 (5G Modem):- Tech Explained


Samsung Electronics Has Announced the Exynos 5100. The modem is compatible with 3GPP standards. It is the world's first 5G modem compatible with 3GPP(3rd generation partnership project). The new modem is built on the 10nm process & supports legacy radio access technologies into a single SoC.
The new Exynos 5100 modem supports the sub 6Ghz Band & mmWave Spectrum support defined in the 5G standards. The company claims that the modem will deliver a Downlink speed of up to 2gbps
It is said to be around 1.7 and five times the data transfer speeds of its predecessor respectively. The model also supports legacy networks, such as 2G GSM/CDMA, 3G WCDMA, TD-SCDMA, HSPA, and 4G LTE, with a single chip solution, Samsung noted in a blog post. The company said that fast and stable data communication can also be seen on 4G networks with a downlink speed of 1.6Gbps.


With the 5G capability to transmit larger data at faster speeds and low latency, Samsung plans to bring a new faster experience to the mobile ecosystem.W e will have to wait and see which will be the first phone to launch with this modem and 5G.
Internet of Things (IoT), ultra-high resolution videos, holograms, real-time artificial intelligence (AI), and autonomous driving are the other sectors that will benefit from 5G modems.
The company said that the Exynos Modem 5100 is also offered with radio frequency IC (RFIC), Envelope Tracking (ET), and power management IC (PMIC) solutions. Interestingly, Samsung has confirmed that the new modem will be available to customers by the end of 2018.
It is worth noting that the Exynos Modem 5100 is not the first 5G modem. Qualcomm had unveiled the X50 modem, back in 2016, and companies like Xiaomi, Vivo, Oppo, and others are already on board to start using it in phones starting next year. Additionally, earlier this year, Qualcomm had announced the "world's first fully-integrated 5G NR millimeter wave (mmWave) and sub-6GHz RF modules" for smartphones and other mobile devices. Samsung plans to pair the new Qualcomm QTM052 mmWave antenna module family and the Qualcomm QPM56xx sub-6 GHz RF module family, with the Snapdragon X50 5G modem, with an aim to deliver modem-to-antenna capabilities across several spectrum bands.

151 MP Camera :-Dope Tech Explained

A 151 MP Camera is something that we could  not imagine a few years ago.But this is made possible thanks to the company"PhaseOne".The PhaseOne XF IQ4 captures ridiculous amounts of deatail. So let's have a look at this Dope Tech. Phase One Camera Specifications Many of the medium frame cameras that try to capture photos above 100 mp use the technique of capturing multiple shots to up the megapixel game rather actually increasing the size of the sensor.PhaseOne however has turned up the camera sensor megapixel game with a staggering 151mp camera sensor that is backside illuminated The camera muster an ISO 50 to 25,600 sensitivity despite the extreme resolution, and you can use both timelapse and bracketing tools independently of the main camera body. The IQ4 also scratches the itch for pro photographers with XQD and SD card slots as well as tethering through Ethernet, USB-C or wireless. If it sounds ridiculously expensive... well, it is. The regula...

Thunderbolt 3 Explained

  The ports on the side of your laptop are important. They decide what you can do on your device and how quickly you can do it. When Apple introduced the first version of the new style MacBook Pro, Apple ditched every single port on its old machines and replaced it with just Thunderbolt 3.Many PCs have now followed suit into the world of Thunderbolt - although it's still relatively few that have gone the whole hog and dumped all other ports the same way that Apple has on the Pro and MacBook Air. So in this article let's understand what's Thunderbolt 3? What is Thunderbolt 3? Thunderbolt 3 is the latest version of Thunderbolt, and it uses the same design as the familiar USB-C connector. This connector is used for simplicity Intel introduced the Thunderbolt platform in 2011 at a time when USB 3.0 was all the rage and could transfer data at speeds up to 5Gbps. Thunderbolt was capable of twice that, plus it could transfer multiple types of data, not just serial data to storage ...

QR Codes Explained

We use QR codes daily for different things like making payments, storing your travel information, visiting websites, connecting to Wi-Fi networks. These barcodes can be captured using smartphones. So in this article let's understand what is a QR code and how do they work. What is QR Code? Qr codes were first developed by a subsidiary of Toyota 'Denso Wave' to quickly track vehicles and parts through the company's automotive manufacturing process.QR code stands for Quick Response Code. Although Denso Wave still holds patents over the technology, QR codes are free for anyone to use without a license fee as long as the intellectual property is being used within the defined ISO/JIS standards.QR codes are machine-readable labels — computers can understand them much more easily than they can understand the text. In 2016 for instance, Snapchat and iMessage introduced support for QR codes as a method of adding new friends, WhatsApp uses QR codes as a quick way to access the de...
