Gigabit fibre access gateway solutions
PMC-Sierra has announced the availability of two fibre access gateway solutions - the MSP7150 EPON/GPON gateway SoC for Fibre To The Home (FTTH) and the MSP7140 VDSL2 gateway SoC for Fibre To The Node (FTTN). These SoCs deliver gigabit-per-second line-rate IPV4/V6 routing, Network Address Translation (NAT), Quality of Service (QoS), encryption and a multi-channel VoIP terminal adaptor, and consume less than 1.5W of power. PMC-Sierra’s fibre acc...
PMC-Sierra's IP over OTN Architecture Accelerates Packet and Optical Metro Convergence
PMC-Sierra has announced the PM5422 META 20G device, enabling Carrier Ethernet Switch and Router (CESR) equipment to seamlessly connect to emerging Metro Optical Transport Networks (ITU-T G.709 OTN). Carriers worldwide are transitioning their networks to OTN for optimized transport of IP services. The META 20G enables a converged OTN infrastructure across IP and optical equipment, with unified end-to-end network management. The device integrates ...
Lime Microsystems and Blue Wonder join to enable early adoption of LTE
Lime Microsystems and Blue Wonder Communications have announced that they are jointly developing a complete LTE reference platform that will enable early adoption of this emerging standard. The fully characterised LTE reference platform will accelerate time to market for OEMs developing LTE systems. The reference platform is based on Lime Microsystems' integrated single chip RF transceiver, the LMS6002, and Blue Wonder's advanced baseband solutio...
Lime Microsystems achieves first success for single chip multi-standard transceiver
Following the successful launch of its 2-4 GHz MicroTCA transceiver platform at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Lime Microsystems has achieved a single chip multi-band multi-standard reconfigurable transceiver IC. The first test chips back from the foundry have been tested and meet the original requirement for a highly frequency agile transceiver IC, operating from 375MHz to 4GHz. Sending and receiving data has been demonstrated successfully ...
Lime Microsystems and picoChip announce frequency-agnostic reference platform for 3G and 4G femtocells
Lime Microsystems and picoChip are collaborating to develop a reference platform for 3G and 4G femtocells. The highly frequency-agile platform will operate in all frequency bands of interest, including existing and emerging bands. It will be based on Lime's multi-band multi-standard RF transceiver IC, the LMS6002, alongside picoChip's picoXcell baseband solutions for femtocells.
Polar Instruments adds modeling of matte and drum sides of PCB copper layers to the Si9000e transmission line field solver
Polar Instruments announces that enhanced modeling of both the drum and matte surfaces of copper layers in high-speed PCB stack-ups has been added to the Si9000e PCB transmission line field solver.
National Semiconductor’s FPD-Link III SerDes Provide Industry’s First Real-Time Bidirectional Control for Driver-Assist Cameras
National Semiconductor today unveiled its FPD-Link III family of automotive-grade serializer and deserializer (SerDes) chipsets featuring the industry’s first real-time, bidirectional control channel for driver-assist video cameras. The FPD-Link III chipsets improve driver safety and response time by delivering clock, data, and real-time I2C bidirectional control, continuously over a single differential pair.
