Dialog Semiconductor Launches Evaluation Board to Speed up Design Time for Marvell PXA3xx Applications.KIRCHHEIM/TECK, Germany -- Dialog Semiconductor Plc (NASDAQ NASDAQ in full National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations U.S. market for over-the-counter securities. Established in 1971 by the National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD), NASDAQ is an automated quotation system that reports on : DLGS DLGS Decreto Legislativo (Italian: Legislative Decree) DLGS Data Link Ground Station , FWB (Fixed Wireless Broadband) See fixed wireless. : DLG DLG - (DFA-based Lexical analyser Generator) The lexical analyser generator in the Purdue Compiler-Construction Tool Set. ) has launched a new evaluation board for its recently introduced DA9034 IC that enables designers to quickly configure designs based on Marvell PXA3xx application processors. The new DA9034-EVB provides a complete audio and power management solution for Marvell PXA3xx-based products and is driven using a standard Windows-based graphical user interface graphical user interface (GUI) Computer display format that allows the user to select commands, call up files, start programs, and do other routine tasks by using a mouse to point to pictorial symbols (icons) or lists of menu choices on the screen as opposed to having to (GUI (Graphical User Interface) A graphics-based user interface that incorporates movable windows, icons and a mouse. The ability to resize application windows and change style and size of fonts are the significant advantages of a GUI vs. a character-based interface. ) via a PC's USB USB in full Universal Serial Bus Type of serial bus that allows peripheral devices (disks, modems, printers, digitizers, data gloves, etc.) to be easily connected to a computer. interface allowing engineers to significantly shorten development times. With the DA9034-EVB, developers can evaluate the technical performance of the DA9034 highly integrated audio and power management IC. The DA9034-EVB can also be used in conjunction with a PXA3xx processor system to develop power management and audio control routines and verify complete designs. The board provides a reference PCB PCB: see polychlorinated biphenyl. PCB in full polychlorinated biphenyl Any of a class of highly stable organic compounds prepared by the reaction of chlorine with biphenyl, a two-ring compound. layout and uses components typically found in cellular handset, portable media player and PDA (Personal Digital Assistant) A handheld computer for managing contacts, appointments and tasks. It typically includes a name and address database, calendar, to-do list and note taker, which are the functions in a personal information manager (see PIM). designs which are optimized for low build height of less, than 1.2mm, and minimum PCB area. Dialog Semiconductor's DA9034 IC integrates more than 50 mixed signal functions on a single chip, providing regulated supplies for the PXA32x processor, memory and peripheral devices as well as supporting lithium ion battery charging, touch screen interface, LED driving, together with voice and HiFi audio codecs. Dialog is the first company, with the DA9034, to support Dynamic Voltage Management for both switching and linear regulators. This technique along with Dialog's ultra efficient Smart Mirror(TM) linear regulators and its flexible implementation of the dedicated PXA3xx processor Power I2C (PI2C) dramatically improves the battery life of end products. All power supplies and control signals are accessible on terminal posts and the DA9034-EVB can be used to power a complete PXA3xx platform design during development. Commenting on the release of the evaluation system Ajay Parmar, Dialog Semiconductor's director of applications, stated, 'As many advanced systems today require sophisticated power management, the interaction between PMICs, processors and other peripherals are key to achieving long battery life. Dialog's DA9034-EVB provides an effective method of developing and testing power management software in a real system environment. In portable and cellular applications, where space is always at a premium, the DA9034/PXA3xx combination allows manufacturers to develop products in the thinnest, smallest and lightest formats.' 'Marvell is pleased that Dialog Semiconductor's dedicated support for PXA3xx based platforms provides system designers with an excellent low power integrated solution for the Marvell PXA3xx processors, memory and peripheral power management. Dialog Semiconductor's IC solutions also support Intel Dynamic Voltage Management for the Marvell PXA3xx platforms, further benefiting designers looking for the optimum balance in top performance processor capabilities and suburb power conservation', said Sam Arditi, senior vice president of the Cellular and Handheld Group at Marvell.
