UBEC (Uniband Electronic Corp.) Ships 802.11g RF Transceiver to WiFi Customers

 

UBEC's UW2451, Highly Integrated WLAN 802.11g RF Transceiver, Offers the Best Sensitivity and Dynamic Range in Class

HSINCHU, Taiwan and MILPITAS, Calif., Aug. 16, 2004 – UBEC (Uniband Electronic Corp.), a leading wireless communication IC design house  specializing in RF transceiver, satellite receiver and Zigbee™ ready 802.15.4 IC, announced today to mass product its low power and highly integrated 802.11g transceiver chip. High-performance reference boards of USB, MiniPCI, CardBus and Compact Flash and reference boards to OEM/ODM customers. 

UW2451 Engineering samples have been tested in Q1 2004, the field test results show that UW2451 significantly improves RF performance over incumbent solutions on the market such as 5 dB better in receiver sensitivity. This is accomplished by the ultra low noise figure of just 2.5 dB of full receiver. Also, owing to its highly linear receiver, UW2451 is able to operate to a maximum input power of greater than 0 dBm in 54 Mbps. The adjacent channel rejection is more than 15 dB better than spec requirement. This allows UW2451 to work in networks where interference causes issues, such as in public or enterprise networks. UW2451’s patented automatic DC cancellation and RSSI circuit enables super fast AGC and antenna diversity. Its highly linear transmitter beats the TX spectrum mask and EVM requirement with a significant margin. UW2451 also includes a Sigma-Delta synthesizer featuring low phase noise, fast switching time and very flexible frequency planning.

Housed in a 48-pin, 7*7 mm^2 QFN package, UW2451’s small size and highly integration reduces customer's BOM component count sharply. Its low power consumption is also a strong candidate for applications such as Cellular phone and WLAN VoIP and other wireless portable devices.  

 UW2451 has been designed in major network devices manufactures and notebook suppliers. The flexible radio interface can work with different 11g Baseband/MAC ICs. UBEC offers customers turnkey solutions for wireless LAN and multimedia applications together with leading BB/MAC partners. 

UBEC also develops 802.11a/g multi-band transceiver; samples of uw2452 are expected to be available in Q3 2004.
