Product description

The MT6261D/A is designed for low-end mobile devices that require efficient power consumption and basic communication features. It is an energy-efficient SoC that integrates various necessary functionalities for basic mobile phones and IoT applications. Here is a detailed breakdown of its components and how they contribute to the device’s operation:

  • Low-Power Architecture: The MT6261D/A uses an ARM Cortex-A7 core, which is optimized for low-power applications. This architecture is suited for devices that do not require high computational power but still need to execute basic tasks like voice calls, SMS, and running simple applications. By keeping the clock speed low and using energy-efficient components, the chip significantly extends battery life, which is a key concern for feature phones and other portable devices.

  • Connectivity: The MT6261D/A integrates a 2G GSM/EDGE modem, which supports voice and text messaging services along with basic data transfer. It can handle GPRS (General Packet Radio Service) for simple mobile data applications, such as browsing lightweight websites and using basic apps. Bluetooth 2.1+EDR adds wireless communication capabilities, allowing users to connect with Bluetooth-enabled peripherals such as headsets, speakers, or IoT sensors.

  • Multimedia: While the MT6261D/A is not intended for high-end multimedia applications, it does offer support for audio and video playback in MP3, AAC, and AMR formats, making it suitable for basic media consumption. It supports VGA cameras (640x480 pixels) for simple photography and video capture, ensuring that entry-level devices can offer these features without needing to integrate a high-end camera module.

  • Power Efficiency: The chip incorporates several power management technologies to ensure that devices using the MT6261D/A consume as little power as possible. This includes low-power idle modes and efficient management of battery charging and discharging cycles. These features ensure that feature phones or IoT devices built around the MT6261D/A can run longer on a single charge, which is critical for low-cost mobile devices.

  • Peripheral Support: The MT6261D/A provides interfaces for essential peripherals such as SD cards, USB, and audio output. This allows manufacturers to create basic devices that can handle common media and data storage tasks. microSD support enables users to expand their storage for photos, music, and apps, while the USB interface can be used for charging or data transfer.

  • Simple Display Handling: With support for QVGA resolution (320x240 pixels), the MT6261D/A is designed for devices with low-resolution displays. This resolution is adequate for basic feature phones, providing a clear display for text, simple graphics, and basic multimedia content.
