Yixin Communication becomes the biggest winner! China Telecom's Jiangsu centralized procurement results for NB-IOT modules are announced

On April 9, China Telecom Tianyi Telecom Terminal Co., Ltd. Jiangsu Branch announced the candidate list for the "2020 NB-IoT Internet of Things Module Centralized Procurement Project". Since Tianyi Telecom released the procurement and selection announcement in February, more than 20 NB-IoT companies have competed for the project, and the final order for 1 million pieces of package 2 was divided among 5 manufacturers.

It is worth noting that Shanghai Yixin Communication Technology Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Yixin Communication") has become the "big winner"! Among the winning bidders, three module manufacturers use Yixin Communication's NB-IoT chip EC616, namely:

Shanghai Quectel Communications Technology Co., Ltd.

Guangdong Jiulian Technology Co., Ltd.

Beijing Huahong Integrated Circuit Design Co., Ltd.

With a 60% share in the order for Package 2 , Yixin Communication has become a true market winner!

This also shows that Yixin Communication's EC616 chip has been recognized by well-known module companies for its ultra-high integration, ultra-low power consumption, excellent communication performance and high stability. To date, Yixin Communication has established strategic partnerships with the top 15 module manufacturers in China .

It is understood that EC616 not only has a much higher level of integration than competing products, significantly saving the cost of peripheral devices, but also integrates Yixin Communication's self-developed industry-leading low-voltage CMOS PA , supports a wide voltage range of 2.2V-4.5V , and saves boost or buck devices.

EC616 not only has a PSM current consumption as low as 0.8uA , but also an Idle (DRX 2.56S) current as low as 0.11mA . It supports APT and DCDC_PA, and the current of the built-in CMOS PA is lower than that of competing products during medium and high power transmission.

In addition, EC616 has been shipped in large quantities. Through joint efforts with module partners, the product has been running stably in various regions and industries in China, and has withstood the rigorous test of long-term real network environment!

As of the end of February 2020, the number of NB-IoT connections of the three major domestic operators exceeded 100 million. With the continuous improvement of the industrial chain and the continuous expansion of application scenarios, NB-IoT will usher in accelerated development. Obviously, in the 5G era of the Internet of Everything, Yixin Communication has made sufficient preparations for the outbreak of NB-IoT. Taking 60% of the market share of the above-mentioned package 2 is only a small step to gain market recognition. Yixin Communication will continue to launch more market-competitive innovative cellular IoT chips to create more value for customers!
