The integration of Redpine Signal's Lite-Fi 802.11n silicon solution on AMCC's PowerPC 405EXr evaluation platform enables a variety of embedded solutions that incorporate single-antenna ultra-low-power 802.11n connectivity at a lower cost than current 802.11b/g solutions.
The jointly developed solution for wireless client applications interfaces the Lite-Fi SoC to the 405EXr through a high-speed parallel interface, with a close-to-zero load WLAN driver on the PowerPC host.
The partnership also focuses on creating solutions for multi-antenna 3x3 802.11n-enabled systems such as enterprise access points (AP), routers and gateways that incorporate Redpine's MIMO 802.11n technology with an AMCC PowerPC 405EX processor.
Redpine's Lite-Fi product family offers differentiating performance and power advantages achieved through six years of research and multiple patents in all the relevant areas of architecture, signal processing, algorithms and low-power implementation.
The PowerPC 405EXr, based on Power Architecture technology, is a price and performance optimized embedded processor for wireless access platforms including Wi-Fi access points, residential gateways and advanced set-top boxes.
