Basically, the Snapdragon SiP integrates various components that are normally a part of the Snapdragon SoC, including the application processor, power management, RF front end, and audio codec, into a single semiconductor system in package. The SiP chips are designed to help the OEMs to simplify manufacturing processes and quickly churn out new devices.
