What’s Spreadtrum and Spreadtrum Device?

Spreadtrum device or Spreadtrum Android Smartphone and what it stands for is not farfetched; just like MTK, Spreadtrum is a product of another similar fabless company called Spreadtrum Communications, Inc.
Spreadtrum Communications, Inc. is a Chinese fabless semiconductor company headquartered in Shanghai which produces chipsets for mobile phones. It is the world’s 17th-largest fabless semiconductor company that manufactures smartphones, tablets and some other mini computers Processors popularly referred to as System on Chip (SoC). And because the SoC is the most important feature that defines the performance of mini-computers.
