CSR has halved the cost of embedded GPS solutions through a collaboration with Samsung. The 9.8 x 9.8 x 2.15 mm Samsung module is based on the SiGe Semiconductor SE4120S GPS RF IC and is a complete GPS RF subsystem, including voltage regulation, RTC and TCXO, SAW filter and LNA.

Mr. Sakwan Hong, Vice President of Samsung, added, "With the market for location based services set to boom in 2008, it is crucial that our customers are able to keep apace with the demand. Samsung and CSR's software GPS solution meets customer performance expectations at a substantially lower cost, so it was a natural progression to partner on this GPS module."

Future products will integrate GPS with CSR's technologies for Bluetooth and FM. CSR will be demonstrating its software-based GPS technologies at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona in February 2008.
