 (Integrated Device Technology IDT (NASDAQ: IDTI) was founded in 1980 as a semiconductor vendor. Employing approximately 2500 people worldwide, headquartered in San Jose, California and operating a fab in Hillsboro, Oregon, the company both designs and fabricates semiconductor components. , Inc.)(Nasdaq:IDTI IDTI Integrated Device Technology Inc ), a leading communications IC company, and Jungo Software Technologies, Inc., a leading provider of residential gateway software and technologies, today extended their commitment to provide comprehensive solutions for communications applications through the availability of a jointly developed platform optimized for wireless LAN, and SOHO Soho (sōhō`, sə–), district of Westminster, London, England, known for its continental restaurants. Once a fashionable quarter, it became popular among writers and artists in the 19th cent.  and residential gateways.

The platform includes Jungo's OpenRG Linux(R)-based software solution and IDT's RC32334 integrated communications processor, and offers designers improved time to market at a compelling system price/performance point. Jungo's OpenRG product features a complete set of software drivers, protocols and system management software, and supports IDT's RC32334 processor-powered 79S334J evaluation board.

This most recent joint effort builds on the previous engineering program that resulted in the optimization of Jungo's OpenRG product for the 79RP351 and 79RP355 asymmetric digital subscriber line (communications, protocol) Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line - (ADSL, or Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Loop) A form of Digital Subscriber Line in which the bandwidth available for downstream connection is significantly larger then for upstream.  (ADSL See DSL.

The IDT/Jungo partnership provides customers well-established, feature-rich solutions with a range of common software packages across IDT's family of integrated communications processors to enable faster development of a diverse set of customer premises equipment See CPE.  (CPE (Customer Premises Equipment) Communications equipment that resides on the customer's premises.

Jungo's OpenRG software, operating on an embedded Linux kernel, improves overall time to market by offering a comprehensive software package featuring Internet sharing, system management, remote upgrade, network security, and plug-and-play home networking technology. In addition, the adoption of Linux as the base of the software platform permits customers to leverage software modules that are broadly available in the public domain. The upcoming version of OpenRG will also support CableHome 1.0, the specifications introduced by CableLabs, that enable cable operators to provide consumers with a secure, high-quality home networking system.

"System suppliers in emerging communications segments such as wireless access points and gateway equipment are increasingly being required to release a range of systems in a short amount of time that support the diverse set of wired and wireless interfaces vying for dominance in this area," said Jean-Charles Bouzigues, business development manager for IDT's Internetworking Products Division. "Our continued partnership with Jungo provides IDT's customers multiple, flexible solutions with a common look and feel, enabling them to address this time to market challenge."

The RC32334 integrated communications processor incorporates a 150-MHz 32-bit MIPS (Million Instructions Per Second) The execution speed of a computer.

 radio chipsets is driving our customers to identify cost-effective controllers that embed this interface on-chip," said Udi Yuhjtman, Jungo Software Technology's vice president of operations and business development. "IDT has a proven track record delivering aggressively priced integrated processors, and this, combined with the performance capabilities of the CPU itself, provides a powerful, scalable platform capable of supporting both existing and future system functionality for wireless access points and gateway equipment."

Jungo's OpenRG software is also optimized for IDT's RC32332 integrated communications processor, appropriate for wireless access points that address lower system functionality and performance points. IDT's Integrated Communications Processors

IDT's portfolio of integrated communications processors includes the RC32355 and RC32351 processors, as well as the RC32334 and RC32332 devices, and provides designers of communications systems a range of choices as the base for cost-conscious embedded applications.
