Picochip announces volume shipments of PC333 basestation-on-a-chip
Picochip has announced that it has commenced volume production of the PC333, the industry’s most advanced basestation-on-a-chip solution. The PC333 is the only SoC currently available for the new breed of ‘small cell’ and ‘metro cell’ basestations, which are re-defining the fundamental architecture of mobile networks
Picochip technology powers LTE femtocell from Airspan
Picochip has announced that its picoArray(tm) technology has been selected to implement LTE and other wireless processing in Airspan’s new multi-standard ‘small cell’ basestation, the AirSynergy. Designed to deliver high-performance data capacity to densely populated urban hotspots, AirSynergy is easy to deploy in metropolitan areas on buildings, strand-mounted from utility poles or on lamp posts.
picoChip drives femtocell market with second generation single-chip baseband processor family
picoChip has launched the PC3xx family, a new range of system-on-chip baseband processors specifically targeted at the fast-growing femtocell market. These second-generation devices incorporate picoChip’s field-proven modem software in a highly integrated form, enabling femtocell manufacturers to substantially reduce bill-of-materials while increasing performance. This cost reduction is a critical enabler for high-volume consumer femtocell de...
Texas Instruments new 4-GHz quadrature modulator
Texas Instruments has announced a high-linearity, ultra-low noise quadrature (IQ) modulator that delivers RF output transmission up to 4 GHz, allowing service providers to easily support multiple wireless communications standards on a single RF transceiver card. TI’s TRF370317 IQ modulator is a direct launch RF transmitter device that offers basestation equipment manufacturers improved linearity and higher output power, which can improve ov...
CommAgility, Tata Elxsi and AxisNT team up to demonstrate a WiMAX base station reference architecture
At this year’s Mobile World Congress (16-19 February), CommAgility, Tata Elxsi (Booth 2D98, Hall 2) and Axis Network Technology (Booth Hall 1 - Stand 1H29) will demonstrate a WiMAX base-station reference solution including WiMAX baseband processing and WiMAX Remote Radio Heads. The three companies worked together at integrating their reference designs and commercial products into a base station reference design.
ProPhotonix Expands its Product Portfolio with New High-Power Blue and Violet Opnext Laser Diodes
ProPhotonix Limited, announced that it will distribute two new high-power laser diodes from opnext
High-resolution positioning system for incremental motions in the nanometer range
With the new N-664 linear positioning stage, PI (Physik Instrumente) has succeeded in developing a further groundbreaking piezo positioning system of the reference class. A NEXACT® piezo linear drive replaces the usual stepper or DC servo motor in the N-664, thus making a position resolution of far less than a nanometer possible. Aligned to it is the new PIOne optical linear encoder with a resolution of 0.5 nm, which allows for repeatable incre...
