Ashvattha Semiconductor Receives Frost & Sullivan Enabling Technology of the Year Award.Business Editors/High-Tech Writers MIAMI--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 20, 2004 "Enabling Technology of the Year Award" Granted to Ashvattha for Its Isolation Technology Ashvattha Semiconductor, Inc., a provider of highly integrated, multi-mode RF integrated circuits Integrated circuits Miniature electronic circuits produced within and upon a single semiconductor crystal, usually silicon. Integrated circuits range in complexity from simple logic circuits and amplifiers, about 1/20 in. (1. , is pleased to announce that its patented isolation technology has been honored hon·or n. 1. High respect, as that shown for special merit; esteem: the honor shown to a Nobel laureate. 2. a. Good name; reputation. b. with the Frost and Sullivan's Enabling Technology of the Year award in the Semiconductor industry. Ashvattha's revolutionary multi-mode RF IC architecture, which includes the award winning isolation technology, enables the simultaneous operation Noun 1. simultaneous operation - the simultaneous execution of two or more operations parallel operation operation - (computer science) data processing in which the result is completely specified by a rule (especially the processing that results from a of multiple radio paths on a single semiconductor device. The company's first application of this innovative technology is in the creation of a tri-mode single RF IC for handsets that performs simultaneous operation of GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications) A digital cellular phone technology based on TDMA that is the predominant system in Europe, but also used worldwide. Developed in the 1980s, GSM was first deployed in seven European countries in 1992. , Bluetooth A wireless personal area network (WPAN) standard for short-range transmission of digital voice and data. Bluetooth is widely used for hands-free cellphone operation, including wireless headsets and connecting to Bluetooth-enabled automobiles that turn the car's audio system into a and GPS. "We are very pleased with the recognition this award has bestowed on Ashvattha's technology," said Jim Kamke, CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization. Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board. of Ashvattha Semiconductor. "Frost & Sullivan's appreciation of the potential impact by this technology on the wireless and broader RF IC markets is a significant validation See validate. validation - The stage in the software life-cycle at the end of the development process where software is evaluated to ensure that it complies with the requirements. of the years of hard work the Ashvattha team has invested." In addition to recognizing the importance of Ashvattha's isolation technology in the area of multi-mode RF ICs for wireless applications, Frost & Sullivan has recognized the applicability of Ashvattha's technology in enabling the future development of single chip solution (RF & Baseband Electronic data prior to any modification. It refers to analog or digital data before they are merged with other signals (multiplexed) or intermixed into a carrier wave (modulated). See multiplexing and modulation. integrated on a single chip) for cell phones and multi-mode single IC TV tuners.
