Broadcom Corporation is a leading supplier of system-level silicon solutions for the high-speed data communications market. The company's highly integrated digital and mixed-signal CMOS chips are cost-effective, digital-transmission solutions for cable-TV, cable modem, local area network, digital broadcast satellite, xDSL and digital radio applications. Broadcom uses proprietary communication building blocks to develop standard and customer-specific products. Using a specialized VLSI design methodology, the company has developed a suite of silicon compilers that easily integrate with customers' Verilog HDL and VHDL designs. These silicon compilers consist of digital filters, adaptive equalizers, modulators and demodulators, numerically-controlled oscillators, frequency synthesizers, A/D converters and D/A converters. Specifically optimized for communication applications, Broadcom's proprietary communication building blocks provide customers with customized, system-level chip solutions in low-cost, state-of-the-art CMOS processes.
