SIM9630L-W: Advanced AI Performance Meets Integrated Connectivity

During MWC Shanghai 2025, where “AI+” took center stage, SIMCom unveiled the SIM9630L-W, an advanced-level AI computing module designed to deliver powerful intelligence at the edge. Built on the Qualcomm Dragonwing™ QCS5430 platform, the SIM9630L-W strikes an ideal balance between performance, efficiency, and connectivity — making it a compelling choice for IoT developers creating smart, AI-driven devices across diverse industries.

The SIM9630L-W is equipped with an octa-core 64-bit processor (2×Cortex-A78 + 4×Cortex-A55) built on an advanced 6nm FinFET process, offering exceptional power efficiency and processing speed. With an integrated Adreno™ 642L GPU and support for OpenGL ES 3.2, Vulkan 1.x, and OpenCL 2.0, it enables smooth, immersive visual experiences. Most importantly, the SIM9630L-W features dedicated on-chip AI acceleration through a Dual HVX and Hexagon Tensor Accelerator, delivering up to 9 TOPS of AI performance — ideal for real-time decision-making, vision processing, and machine learning at the edge.

Beyond computing power, the SIM9630L-W offers robust multimedia capabilities. Its Adreno™ VPU 633 supports 4K30 video encoding and 4K60 decoding, enabling high-definition video capture, streaming, and analysis. With flexible memory configurations ranging from 64GB+4GB to 128GB+8GB, plus support for multiple high-resolution cameras and interactive touch displays, it facilitates rich, data-intensive user interfaces tailored for AI applications.

Connectivity is another core strength of the SIM9630L-W. The module supports a broad spectrum of wireless standards — including 4G LTE (FDD/TDD), WCDMA/HSPA+, 2x2 MIMO, Wi-Fi 6E, and Bluetooth 5.2 — to ensure fast, stable, and reliable communications across various deployment environments. Integrated high-precision GNSS (including GPS) further enhances its suitability for mobile or location-aware applications. Extensive interface options such as MIPI_DSI/CSI, UART, SPI, I2C, USB, and PCIe provide developers with the flexibility to connect a wide range of external cameras, sensors, displays, and peripherals, enabling seamless integration into complex systems.

With its advanced AI capabilities, the SIM9630L-W is ideally suited for a broad range of intelligent edge applications. It finds wide use in smart POS terminals for secure, AI-powered transactions; logistics terminals that require real-time data processing; immersive VR/AR devices; intelligent robots; and in-vehicle systems including smart cockpits. Additionally, it supports video and security surveillance systems, smart data acquisition devices, industrial-grade PDAs, edge computing gateways, and various smart handheld terminals—making it a versatile solution across multiple industries demanding high-performance AI at the edge.

By combining advanced AI computing performance with integrated connectivity and multimedia support, SIMCom's SIM9630L-W empowers businesses to develop smarter, faster, and more adaptive AIoT solutions — driving the AI+ revolution from the device outward.
