Chipidea Offers the Industry's Most Advanced Portfolio of AFE and Data Converter IP in IBM, Chartered and Samsung Processes.With Offerings in 90nm and 65nm, Leading Analog-Mixed Signal IP Provider Announces Cores for Video, Wireless Broadband High-speed wireless transmission of data. What is "high" speed is always a changing number. Wireless systems are typically slower than land-based, wireline networks. In the past, wireless broadband started at 250 Kbps, whereas land-based broadband was generally considered to start at T1 and Mobile TV SOCs LISBON, Portugal -- Chipidea, the world's leading provider of analog/mixed-signal silicon intellectual property, announced today that it provides the widest available portfolio of analog front-end and data converter Noun 1. data converter - converter for changing information from one code to another computer, computing device, computing machine, data processor, electronic computer, information processing system - a machine for performing calculations automatically IP in Chartered Semiconductor Manufacturing's most advanced foundry process technology. With complete subsystems and individual cores available in 65nm and 90nm technology, Chipidea offers the most compact designs of analog front end (AFE (Apple File Exchange) An earlier Macintosh utility that converted data files between Mac and PC formats. It also included a file translator between IBM's DCA format and MacWrite. ), digital-to-analog and analog-to-digital converter IP for System-on-Chip integration in the video, broadband (m) WiMAX/Wibro, WiFi, Ultra-Wideband and Mobile TV markets. Chipidea has worked with Chartered Semiconductor Manufacturing Chartered Semiconductor Manufacturing SGX: C27 NASDAQ: CHRT (abbreviated CSM) is the world's fourth largest dedicated independent semiconductor foundry, with its headquarters and main operations located in the Woodlands Industrial Park, Kranji Singapore. , one of the world's top dedicated foundries, to make the AFE and data converter designs ready on the most advanced process technology available. Intended to ease integration process for designers producing leading-edge SoC devices, this development provides key building blocks and complete sub-systems for consumer electronic devices in fast-growing markets. The data converter IP was prepared on Chartered's 90nm and 65nm technologies, part of the IBM-Samsung-Chartered Common Platform. Chipidea's IP solutions provide SoC builders with greater flexibility to integrate data converter IP into their designs, and heralds Chipidea's readiness to supply complete analog front-end IP in advanced technology. "By working with foundry partners and listening to input from customers, we have made our data converter and AFE IP ready for integration and suitable for leading-edge applications," said JoEuo Vital, Chipidea co-founder and vice president of the Data Converter Business Unit. "Our extensive experience in these market segments and in designing AFEs, and our engineer-to-engineer contact help market-leading companies get to market quickly with leading-edge devices. No other IP company matches Chipidea's breadth of data converter IP in the most advanced process technologies. The first IP cores designed for advanced process technologies are Chipidea's Video ADC (1) See A/D converter. (2) (Apple Display Connector) A peripheral connector from Apple that combines digital video display, USB and power in one cable. and Video DAC See D/A converter and discretionary access control. DAC - Digital to Analog Converter for High Definition TV, and an IQADC designed for Mobile TV and broadband wireless See wireless broadband. communications. All the IP cores have flexible power modes suitable for battery powered applications. Chipidea will soon have available complete low power AFE Video and Wireless communications wireless communications System using radio-frequency, infrared, microwave, or other types of electromagnetic or acoustic waves in place of wires, cables, or fibre optics to transmit signals or data. , and other single blocks designed for IBM's, Chartered's and Samsung's Common platform processes.
