Toshiba TransferJet wireless data transfer Demos at IFA 2012

Illustrating Toshiba’s ongoing commitment to TransferJet, the new demonstrations show how the company’s semiconductors simplify the design of products featuring TransferJet’s high-speed, close proximity wireless transfer capabilities. TransferJet technology features transmission speed of up to 560Mpbs over air when devices are in close proximity. Toshiba was the first to market with a single-chip TransferJet solution that integrates all of the host interface, modem, baseband and RF functions necessary for TransferJet communications.

Toshiba’s wireless SSD concept product will demonstrate how TransferJet can be used to provide a high-speed, ‘USB-style’ wireless link for bulk data transfer and streaming to/from a portable, battery-powered SSD drive and a PC. The tablet demonstration will show how microSD cards and SD cards with integrated TransferJet capabilities can be used for simple, wire-free “touch and get” transfer between any Android 3.1/4.0 or Linux-based systems including tablets, cameras and mobile phones.

All of the new demonstrations have been built around Toshiba’s TransferJet Consortium-qualified wireless IC TC35420. This chip incorporates all of the necessary signal processing and RF circuitry for a TransferJet-compliant wireless communications link.
