UWB Internal Planar Antennas Offer High Gain and Low Profile
Focus EDL has announced an ultra-wide band (UWB) family of high-gain, low-profile, internal planar antennas for high-speed, short-range data communication equipment. Produced by Pulse, these UWB antennas are available in sizes that are optimized for applications currently using the UWB spectrum and create opportunities for new applications in the UWB spectrum.
RFID reader’s built-in personalities ease integration
Wireless and communications specialist TDC has added to its portfolio of RFID solutions, with the introduction of a module that is rich in features, yet simple to integrate. The SkyeModule M4 provides state-of-the-art security standards and a host of features normally found only in much higher-priced readers. Integration is simplified by the three alternative firmware personalities, which ready the module for distinct application requirements; in...

TI linear regulator said to cut MSP430 standby power consumption in half
Texas Instruments has introduced 150-mA, low-dropout linear regulators (LDOs) with dual-level voltage output for MSP430 microcontroller-based, battery-powered devices. Consuming the lowest quiescent current in the industry at 500-nanoAmps, the LDO’s voltage select (VSET) pin gives designers the ability to switch between two voltage levels to customize and cut power consumption in half during operation.

IDT's Optimized CPRI Solution Addresses Rapidly Evolving Wireless Market
IDT has announced a new family of common public radio interface (CPRI )-based functional interconnect chip (FIC) solutions that bridge adjacent standards within the wireless infrastructure. These FIC solutions are the first such devices optimized to allow the common CPRI standard to span the interface between the wireless radio card and a Serial RapidIO-enabled base band processing system.

Narrow Band Multi-Channel Radio Module
Radiometrix has introduced a new addition to its widely applicable, low cost LMT2/LMR2 transmitter/receiver series. Making use of the 458.525-459.1MHz UK frequency band (instead of the 433.875-434.650MHz EU band utilised in the previous versions), these higher power radio modules manage to increase the distance over which they can communicate to as much as 1km. This allows engineers to enhance systems that previously had insufficient range (or in...
