Do you find it interesting what you can know about a part just from the
package it uses?


The key issue is that Samsung has designed a smaller single chip replacing
the multi-chip set, which could not be used in portables due to size and
power consumption. Who cares what is inside if it works as stated? It's not
"rocket science" just consumer electronics.


I looked at the Samsung web site and could find no reference to a HD
radio system on a chip. I could find several versions of an analog
radio on a chip and HDTV chips but no HD radio chips.

Eduardo is blowing smoke.

Here you have several of broadcasting's top executives talking about the
chip and its effects:

The chip is announced, shipping in demo quantities and available for bulk
shipment in Q2.

The following two quotes from the link were all I could find in the
article about "chips." Please excuse the quotes within quotes.

"Asked about HD Radio and its traction with consumers, Smulyan said
adoption is going to take time. "There are a billion radios in the
United States today," he said. "We're not going to replace a billion
radios in a week and a half." Mason agreed, saying, "If you look and see
how quickly this curve is coming, it is remarkable." He said the real
discussion will be about HD chips and the distribution channels that
will open up when the chips appear in iPods, cell phones, and other
devices."

"Another questioner asked if there's any industry group working with
consumer electronics manufacturers on getting radio tuners into devices,
and Smulyan responded, "The answer is yes. The HD [Digital Radio]
Alliance is working on it." "

So this adds up to nothing. These are just nebulous statements that are
promises with no specifics of any kind. No names, no dates, no devices
(chips), no products, and the last sentence in the first quote states
that the discussion on new devices (chips) has yet to take place.

All this is, is promotional talk. Smoke and mirrors. It's a dream. It
could amount to something in the future but to date ZERO.

I don't have any QSLs. MW confirmations are called "veries" and not QSLs.

these are all people who have seen the Samsung presentations. "The chip"
means the Samsung chip, which is now in limited developer shipment per
Samsung's statements at the CES.

Someone made a mistake. All the references to a radio on a chip on the
Samsung site were analog. Looks like there is some confusion here as
they do have chips for satellite and HD but not AMBCB and FMBCB.

Your mistake is depending on a website for data only of interest to
manufacturers, iBiquity and its shareholders. The chip is, obviously,
digital as HD is digital.
