Established in 1971 by the National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD), NASDAQ is an automated quotation system that reports on :BBRC BBRC Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications BBRC Bellevue Breakfast Rotary Club (Washington state) BBRC Ball Brothers Research Corporation ) new DRV1100 expands the company's existing portfolio of products designed to tap into the rapidly growing market for high speed digital subscriber lines. The product is designed for xDSL applications such as ADSL See DSL. ADSL - Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line , RADSL See DSL. , and HDSL See DSL. HDSL - High bit-rate Digital Subscriber Line . It joins the family of Analog Front End (AFE) products that are now shipping in production volume for exiting systems and chip sets from PairGain Technologies, Rockwell/Brooktree, and Metalink. The market for xDSL modems is conservatively estimated to reach a 1 million unit per year run rate by 1998. The DRV1100 uses advanced CMOS (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor) Pronounced "c-moss." The most widely used integrated circuit design. It is found in almost every electronic product from handheld devices to mainframes. technology and operates off a single 5 volt supply thereby eliminating the multiple power supplies required by existing upstream drivers. The driver is compatible with all existing and projected line coding schemes such as CAP, DMT See DSL. , QAM, and 2B1Q. The chip has been designed to be integrated with Globespan Technologies ADSL, RADSL, and HDSL systems. Globespan is the former Advanced Transmission Technology Unit of AT&T Paradyne. Globespan licenses its proprietary transceiver technology to equipment manufacturers worldwide who use this technology as the foundation for high speed access to the internet, video services, and other bandwidth intensive applications. In addition to power supply simplification, the DRV1100 uses less board space and consumes less power than existing xDSL drivers. Packaged in a compact 8-pin SOIC, the DRV1100 is priced from $2.73 in 10,000s. Delivery is from stock.
