I stand corrected, maybe I had read a slightly older FY results https://media.nxp.com/news-releases/news-release-details/nxp...

(though Qualcomm has aprox 3x the quarterly revenue)

QUALCOMM sells phone modems which is a much more lucrative business than NXP selling automotive chips and generic ARM microcontrollers.

And NXP sold those (up to 3G models IIRC). https://www.nxp.com/products/no-longer-manufactured/3g-singl...

Why are they not selling anymore?
