Optichron to Conduct First Public Demonstration of ADC Modules with Advanced Linearizer at Software Defined Radio Forum '05; CEO to Present Technical Paper on Digitally-Assisted Analog for Improved Nonlinear Signal Processing.FREMONT, Calif. -- Optichron, Inc., the leader in advanced nonlinear signal processing See DSP. , announced today that the company will offer the first public demonstration of its analog-to-digital converter (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. ) modules at the 2005 Software Defined Radio A wireless terminal (phone, PDA, etc.) that is reconfigurable via software. It enables wireless devices to be easily updated to new or later versions of the air interface and allows multiple interfaces to be supported. Technical Conference and Product Exposition (SDR See software defined radio. '05) in Anaheim, California “Anaheim” redirects here. For Annaheim, see Annaheim, Saskatchewan. Anaheim is a city in Orange County, California, located 28 miles southeast of Los Angeles. on November 14-18. The OM1400A-105 ADC modules incorporate Optichron's proprietary Linearizer IC, based on the company's advanced Turbolinear(TM) technology that eliminates nonlinear distortion Noun 1. nonlinear distortion - distortion that occurs when the output signal does not have a linear relation to the input signal amplitude distortion . 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. Roy Batruni will also present a paper at SDR '05 detailing Optichron's ability to improve the speed, performance, power consumption and cost of high-speed signal processing systems by using digitally-assisted analog circuitry to reduce design constraints and simultaneously achieve high signal linearity. The presentation is scheduled for November 16. "The ability to digitally correct for analog impairments in a high-speed analog-to-digital converter front end is a highly desirable feature in a software defined radio application because it allows for higher input signal frequencies to be subsampled with both low noise and high linearity," said Roy Batruni, CEO of Optichron. "Optichron's Linearizer IC is a prime example of the integration of digital circuitry to solve the problem of nonlinear distortion in analog systems." Optichron's advanced semiconductor products eliminate nonlinear distortion generated in ADCs to improve performance, precision and efficiency in a broad range of communication, medical and industrial applications. The company will demonstrate its ADC module incorporating the Linearizer IC in booth number 207 on November 15-16 at the SDR '05 Conference.
