picoChip delivers complete range of next generation femtocell solutions
picoChip unveiled three new products that allow its customers to address the complete range of femtocell requirements via a single design platform. The introduction of two new picoXcell system-on-chip (SoC) devices and an integrated suite of HSPA+ femtocell access point (FAP) software creates the industry’s most complete family of system-level femtocell solutions.
Picochip extends lead in public access femtocells and announces dual-mode LTE/HSPA+ capabilities
Building on its market leadership in residential femtocells, Picochip is extending its technology into the more traditional part of the public network, adding support for Iub network architectures to its recently-launched picoXcell(tm) PC333 HSPA+ device, and announcing plans for an optimized dual-mode LTE/HSPA+ basestation.
Silicon Labs Introduces 'green' POE/POE+ QUAD PSE Controller
Silicon Laboratories has introduced the Si345x family, the industry's most integrated, energy-efficient quad Power over Ethernet (PoE) Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE) controllers. Able to support four independent PoE (IEEE 802.3af) and PoE+ (IEEE 802.3at) PSE ports, the Si345x controllers offer real-time power measurement capabilities, energy-efficient powered device (PD) detection and disconnect algorithms, and the industry's lowest on-resistance...
Silicon Labs - Single Channel Telephony IC
Silicon Laboratories claims the industry’s highest performance, highest integration and lowest power family of single-channel foreign exchange station (FXS) solutions. The Si3217x ProSLIC family is the first to integrate everything needed for an FXS interface into a single package, reducing board area by 50 percent without compromising the performance and diagnostic capabilities typical of traditional telephony service.
