Higher-Bandwidth DSP Covers Asia's Telecom Market Few places have experienced the explosive wireless-telecommunication-network growth that has been seen in Asia. The demand for wireless devices and, more importantly, the networks that support them has been especially great in China. For instance,... November 2004 [Editor's Note] Wireless Rides The Cyclic Market Have you ever noticed that even though everything changes, the pattern of change seldom varies? Paradoxically, some things seem to be in constant flux while others seem to remain relatively unchanged. Take the technology markets, for instance.... October 2004 [Editor's Note] We're Branching Out To Serve You Better With the advent of the Internet, a multitude of new resources suddenly appeared at the engineer's fingertips. Instead of having to rely on phone calls and catalogs, engineers can now browse the web and surf information-filled design sites. In fact,... October 2004 [News] SoC Design Gains Flexibility For The Future Don't let the innocuous title of this book fool you. Chris Rowen, President and CEO of Tensilica, has prepared a technically accurate but accessible work that explains why the systems-on-a-chip (SoCs) of tomorrow won't be designed like today's SoCs.... October 2004 [On The Wireless Front] On The Wireless Front Boise, Idaho Micron Technology, Inc. recently announced qualification of the 288-Mb, reduced-latency, dynamic-random-access-memory II (RLDRAM II) products, which are now available in volume production.... October 2004 [Special Report] FPGAs And Virtual Prototypes Share Common Design Space Much has been written about the rise of field-programmable-gate-array (FPGA) -based platforms over application-specific-integrated-circuit (ASIC) implementations. During the last few years, FPGAs have certainly increased their size and performance... October 2004 [Product Features] Tool Helps Designers Find Interface Parasitics As nanometer design projects become more commonplace, the side effects of shrinking process geometries also will grow familiar. The emergence of significant interconnect parasitic elements is chief among these effectsespecially for 90-nm... September 2004 [Product Features] ZigBee Platform Readies Wireless-Based Designs Sometimes, a little can go a long way. For instance, take the case of ZigBeea set of networking, security, and application software protocols based on the IEEE 802.15.4 low-data-rate wireless standard. Compared to other wireless networks, such... September 2004 [News] Design IrDA Products The Right Way Sometimes, it's easy to forget that infrared technologyas embodied by the IrDA communityis every bit as wireless as Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. In fact, IrDA is pervasive throughout today's electronic mobile systems. The most recent IrDA report... July/August 2004 [News] Win The Battle Of FPGA Design If you've never read any books written by Clive "Max" Maxfield, then you're in for a treat. True to form, his latest book on FPGAs is enjoyable to read. Yet it's also rich in the technical details that any modern designer would need. This tome... July/August 2004 [Special Report] Top Wireless-Security Vendors Vary In Their Approaches Who are the major players in the burgeoning wireless-security market?

June 2004 [Column] Will The U.S. Continue To Lead Wireless Standards? One measure of a region's technological power is its ability to set global standards. This capability directly reflects the region's knowledge base and global market share. Standards serve as milestones for the technologies as well. It's well known... June 2004 [New Products] Low-Power FPGAs Put SRAM Into Small Package To meet consumer requirements for feature-rich, small, and lightweight mobile wireless devices, chip vendors have had to increase the density of their packages. One example is the low-power, high-density programmable-logic devices that were recently... June 2004 [New Products] Module Grants Many Devices Wireless Features Even though many device manufacturers want to join the wireless bandwagon, they lack the in-house resources to develop wireless connectivity. Now, help may have arrived in the form of Lantronix's WiPort module. This integrated device server supports... June 2004 [New Products] OFDM Building Blocks Help Speed WiMAX Development To accelerate the evolution of IEEE 802.16 or WiMAX networks, the industry may turn to devices that already have the flexibility to support this emerging standard. For example, picoChip recently developed a WiMAX PHY library that will run on its... June 2004 [New Products] Phone Boasts Keyboard And VPN-Client Capabilities Everyone talks about the next wireless "killer application." But users seem more interested in usability issues than the latest and greatest application. For this reason and others, Sierra Wireless has embedded a VPN client into its VoqMail...
