Bithium - Sistemas de Telecomunicacoes, S.A. Demonstrates Its Freedom DECT Base Station Using the Integration Associates IA3223/IA3222 Silicon DAA.


MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. -- Integration Associates Inc. and Bithium - Sistemas de Telecomunicacoes, S.A., today announced a low cost reference design of a DECT (Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications) A cordless phone standard mostly used in Europe; however, DECT 6.0 is increasingly used worldwide. The first DECT standards were introduced by ETSI in 1992, and DECT phones have been used as cordless home phones as  basestation supporting dual PSTN/VoIP cordless phone with worldwide PSTN (Public Switched Telephone Network) The worldwide voice telephone network. Once only an analog system, the heart of most telephone networks today is all digital. In the U.S.  compatibility.

Bithium - Sistemas de Telecomunicacoes, S.A. is demonstrating its Freedom DECT base station design at DECT CAT-iq '08 conference. This low-cost DECT SIP cordless telephone base station design uses uCLinux and codecs The following is a list of codecs. Audio codecs
Non-compression formats
  • Audio Interchange File Format (AIFF, container format)
  • Resource Interchange File Format (RIFF, container format)
 such as G.722, G.711, G.726 and G.729 running on the SC14450 baseband processor from Sitel Semiconductor (www.sitelsemi.com). Bithium has specifically ported the uCLinuxOS to Freedom platform for enabling the high flexibility of uCLinux to its full potential making Linux applications easily usable.

The commitment to grow the use of VoIP communication terminals has led Bithium to pursue this project right from the availability of the main controller. This effort also targeted CATiq wideband audio profile offering the end-users a better audio quality experience in their VoIP communications.

In addition to VoIP SIP communications support, the platform also supports PSTN connections. Bithium is using Integration's IA3223/IA3222 chipset to have the required isolation while at the same time providing a reference design worldwide compliant with a single BOM (no PCB PCB: see polychlorinated biphenyl.

 hardware changes).

Integration's IA3223/IA3222 is a DAA DAA - Distributed Application Architecture: under design by Hewlett-Packard and Sun. A distributed object management environment that will allow applications to be developed independent of operating system, network or windowing system.  chipset optimized for non-modem systems requiring isolated DAAs, such as PBX (Private Branch eXchange) An inhouse telephone switching system that interconnects telephone extensions to each other as well as to the outside telephone network (PSTN).  FXO FXO Foreign Exchange Office  interfaces. Besides the worldwide compliance support with a single hardware build, the chipset includes the ability to program for additional AC line terminations helping to improve line matching and consequently the performance of FXO channels in VOIP equipment.

The development went through different challenges and has been made in record time in order to address the market potential. Antonio Muchaxo, Bithium's General Manager, said, "Integration's chipset provided the ideal solution to address the requirements of this design both in cost (DAA BOM) and support which helped us to meet our schedule." He also stated the platform will be completed by the end of Q1 2008 when the development of portable device is finalized. Integration's 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. , Jean-Luc Nauleau highlighted the flexibility of this new chipset for developing next generation of VOIP systems: "The IA3223/IA3222 provides all line monitoring functions and while actually reducing the overall BOM cost."

Bithium is promoting the design to OEMs and brands in the terminal communication equipment business. announced today that it is concluding Freedom - its low-cost DECT SIP cordless telephone design. With this design Bithium will address the OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) The rebranding of equipment and selling it. The term initially referred to the company that made the products (the "original" manufacturer), but eventually became widely used to refer to the organization that buys the products and  manufacturers and brand owners targeting the growing VoIP terminal market. A unique set of features is included: CAT-iq, wideband audio, data exchange capability over the air and uCLinux support.
