Motorola's Semiconductor Products Sector yesterday announced its new Mobile Extreme Convergence (MXC) architecture for mobile devices. The company claims that the new architecture permits the critical components of a high-performance mobile device to fit in an area the size of a postage stamp, compared to previous solutions the size of a business card. MXC is also designed to reduce the cost, complexity, and power consumption of mobile devices. The size reduction is due in part to the convergence of call processing and applications processing hardware. The first chips using the MXC architecture are expected to sample in the second half of 2004
