AMD to invest $400 million in India by 2028: Here’s what we know

US chipmaker Advanced Micro Devices said on Friday it will invest around $400 million in India over the next five years and will build its largest design center in the tech hub of Bengaluru. AMD’s announcement was made by its Chief Technology Officer Mark Papermaster at an annual semiconductor conference that started Friday in Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s home state of Gujarat. Other speakers at the flagship event include Foxconn Chairman Young Liu and Micron CEO Sanjay Mehrotra. Despite being a late entrant, the Modi government has been courting investments into India’s nascent chip sector to establish its credentials as a chipmaking hub. AMD said it will open its new design centre campus in Bengaluru by end of this year and create 3,000 new engineering roles within five years. “Our India teams will continue to play a pivotal role in delivering the high-performance and adaptive solutions that support AMD customers worldwide,” Papermaster said. The new 500,000-square-foot (55,5...

iQOO announces its 120W Ultra-Fast charging technology, to debut in August

Oppo has confirmed that it will launch its 125W super flash fast charge technology on July 14. However, its rival brand iQOO has gone ahead by revealing its FlashCharge 120W ultra-fast charging technology today. iQOO already offers some fast charging solutions like 33W, 44W, and 55W on their phones. Now, the Chinese brand has unveiled the ultra-fast 120W fast charging technology. It promises to charge 50% of a 4,000 mAh battery in just 5 minutes. The full charge of a cell with the same capacity will take only 15 minutes.

Vivo, the iQOO mother brand, presented its 120W FlashCharge technology at the Mobile World Congress Shanghai technology exhibition last year. However, its demonstration was somewhat technical, and the technology has not entered mass-production yet. Additionally, this new tech has yet to be included in any commercial smartphone. Therefore, today’s iQOO announcement can be called the world’s first 120W fast charging technology.

iQOO presents its FlashCharge 120W technology

At the launch event, iQOO showcased 120W fast charging technology on the phone with a 4,000 mAh dual-battery system consisting of two 2,000mAh cells each. Both batteries are charged at 5V/12A (60W) using a custom chip to achieve a full charge rate of 120W with a charge conversion rate of 97 percent.

Phones with the ultra-fast 120W charge will come with super VC liquid cooling technology to regulate the device’s internal temperature. The charging adapter will also come with safety mechanisms such as a matrix-type pole structure for cell impedance.

According to a leakster on Weibo (Digital Chat Station), an iQOO phone with a 120W fast charging technology is already in the works. The source claims that this new smartphone appears to be capable of reaching an 80 percent charge in just minutes, and it may debut next month. The mass production of this unknown iQOO phone has already begun.
