Here's what Q may want: There is a steady stream of articles in EETimes about the race to build the first completely software defined radio. That means that the modulation schemes, freq. ranges, etc, etc. are not defined by sets of component values but rather broadly capable components reconfigured, even moment by moment, by software alone (think multi-protocol, think multi-band). One aspect of this is that it requires world class expertise in DSP technology and TI is is one of the very biggest and baddest dogs on the DSP block. --fl EDIT: This is old but a good discussion of siftware defined radios: eoenabled.com and here is a very recent one with Nokia involvement: eoenabled.com "The so-called “soft radio,” which Bell Labs believes will be out around 2002, will have two ICs and five discretes. Estola of Nokia remarked that 10,000 transistors these days cost about the same amount as a paper clip."
