12 Setembro 2005 - 9:00AM
Business Wire
Skyworks Solutions, Inc. (NASDAQ:SWKS), a global leader in analog,
mixed signal and digital semiconductors for mobile communications
applications, today expanded its EDGE portfolio with the
introduction of its 3-chip complete system solution that
significantly reduces board space and enables multimedia features
including a high-resolution camera interface, MP3 and MPEG.
Skyworks' Lynx(TM) architecture combines its next-generation ARM
9(TM) processor and StarCore(TM) DSP baseband engine, an integrated
analog mixed-signal and Helios(TM) direct conversion receiver, and
a power amplifier (PA) module. Lynx(TM) also delivers a
system-optimized EDGE Class 12 protocol stack that incorporates a
flexible multimedia framework to enable a wide range of features
for globally distributed handsets. With the addition of its system
solution, Skyworks' complete EDGE portfolio can be tailored to meet
custom OEM and ODM integration requirements, ranging from a
standalone Intera(TM) front-end module (FEM), to a Helios(TM)
radio, to a complete Lynx(TM) system. "Through unprecedented levels
of semiconductor and software integration, Skyworks is squarely
focused on offering handset suppliers solutions that balance system
size, processing horsepower and battery life, while delivering
comprehensive multimedia features that eliminate the need for
external companion ICs and speed time to market," said Greg Waters,
vice president and general manager of Skyworks' Cellular Systems
group. "As the wireless industry moves towards third-generation
(3G) cellular services, end-users will continue to increase their
demand for features such as imaging, MP3 and gaming, as well as
streaming video functionality in the handset. Skyworks' family of
Lynx(TM) platforms is scalable to support these requirements, while
reducing overall system size by 20 percent from discrete
implementations with an even greater decline in overall bill of
materials." Skyworks' GSM/GPRS/E-GPRS product families go through
extensive interoperability testing (IOT) and field testing,
operating on over 100 networks in 50 countries throughout the
Americas, Europe, Asia, and the Middle East. Skyworks provides an
experienced customer production engineering team to support board
layout, system software integration, and full type approval, up
through production ramp. Technical Details Skyworks' Lynx(TM)
complete system solution incorporates a multimedia framework that
delivers next-generation functionality and services on a single ARM
9 core architecture. The multimedia playback engine supports a
number of audio (MIDI 64-tone, XMF, MP3, WMA, AAC, AMR), still
image (JPEG, GIF), video (MPEG, H.263, H.264), and 2-D/3-D graphics
formats. With an integrated multi-megapixel camera interface and
on-chip image signal processing (ISP), Lynx is able to process and
encode high-resolution still image (JPEG) and video (3GPP and MP4)
formats. Multiple peripheral interfaces are supported including USB
2.0 OTG, MMC/SD, IrDA, and Bluetooth. The platform comes
pre-integrated with Java JTWI 1.0, and supports a number of JSRs
and other data services. The L9100 represents the first system in
the platform series and provides 2 megapixel camera plus ISP, USB
2.0 OTG, MMC/SD, and IrDA interfaces, along with support for
Bluetooth, GPS, Wi-Fi and other peripherals. The Lynx(TM) L9100 is
available now and currently sampling to qualified customers
worldwide. About Skyworks Skyworks Solutions, Inc. is a global
