NXP Semiconductors Announces Breakthrough in GSMA-Compliant eSIM Solutions to Help Device Manufacturers More Easily Offer Consumers SIM Card Remote Configuration and Wireless Updates to Multiple Mobile Network Operator (MNO) Subscriptions NXP Of the chip innovates to meet the needs of the growing eSIM market.According to ABI Research data (December 2017), the market is expected to grow nearly sevenfold and shipments will increase from a relatively small 224 million in 2018 to 2022 696 million.
The new NXP SN100U is the world's first single-die chipset with integrated embedded security element (SE), Near Field Communication (NFC) and eSIM for advanced functionality, cellular connectivity and greater security. NXP also introduced the industry's smallest SU070 stand-alone eSIM solution for smartphones, tablets, laptops and other IoT devices that require low-power cellular connectivity. Both of these new eSIM solutions With the highest level of end-to-end security from hardware to software, it provides consumers, OEMs, MNOs, and service providers with secure, tamper-proof data protection.
Rafael Sotomayor, NXP's senior vice president and general manager of Secure Transaction & Identity Services, said: "The addition of 5G cellular devices and consumer-facing trends in IoT offer new possibilities for new devices and services. As eSIM capabilities become smarter and more independent, requiring greater security, performance and reliability, we are a leading provider of secure IoT solutions that combine best-in-class security, NFC, and connectivity into a single The unique ability of the die for easy remote configuration.

SN100U - the highest level of integration
The highly integrated SN100U chipset with integrated SE, NFC and eSIM is designed to provide OEMs with more convenient and cost-effective solutions to integrate more demanding applications in future devices such as mobile transmission, intelligent access control Control, contactless payments and increased platform security, etc. MNOs, OEMs, and ODMs want feature-rich new devices that combine performance, standards compliance and security with multiple interfaces and Security software features are a particularly suitable option for them The SN100U extends the life of these connected devices with significantly increased number of read / write cycles, multi-interface concurrency management capabilities, and significant power savings, enabling the MNO and its Customer benefits.
SU70 - the smallest footprint and lowest power consumption
The SN100U and SU070 chipsets offer up to 30% less footprint on printed circuit boards than existing solutions, eliminating the need for SIM card ports / gates for traditional SIM cards, all with extremely low power In particular, the SU070, ideal for wearable devices and other small form-factor mobile devices, offers a low-power feature mode with up to 75% lower power consumption than competing eSIM solutions. With this flexibility , MNOs can explore more types of mobile cellular interconnect device services.
By driving the convergence of eSIM and SE capabilities, end users will benefit from more convenient and safer lifestyles such as seamless NFC mobile payments while maintaining cell phone conversations.
