ANALOG DEVICES TO SHOWCASE SILICON SOLUTIONS FOR WIRELESS APPLIC tions atCTIA Wireless '99 BOOTH NUMBER 2663 - Six-Station Booth Will Feature Demonstrations of ADI's New Multicarrier Base Station Solution, 3G Infrastructure Technology Capabilities, TigerSHARC(TM) DSP, Motorola's Reflex(TM) Messaging Solution, Embedded Speech Processing Solution and RF/IF Solutions for Digital Handsets - Analog Devices, Inc. (NYSE: ADI), today announced it will showcase an array of silicon solutions for wireless applications, including third- generation technology capabilities, at CTIA Wireless '99 in New Orleans, LA, February 8-10. ADI's booth, #2663, will feature six distinct function areas, each of which will feature new or soon-to-be-released wireless product solutions. The ADI booth will feature demonstration areas for the following product categories: Multicarrier Base Station Solution ADI will demonstrate a Multicarrier base station that uses ADI's new software radio architecture, which allows Direct IF sampling of multicarrier signals and digital receiver channelizing of desired signals. The chipset represents a radical shift in radio architecture and enables smaller, more powerful base stations to be designed for wireless systems. Technology Capabilities for 3G Infrastructure ADI will showcase its silicon technology capabilities for 3G infrastructure, which offer a promising platform for WBCDMA. The portfolio will demonstrate the breadth of ADI's product line and reinforce the company's position as a leading supplier of high-per formance, end-to-end silicon-based wireless solutions for third generation wireless infrastructure. The TigerSHARC(TM) DSP ADI's ground-breaking digital signal processor (DSP) architecture will also be featured. The DSP will offer designers with the fastest signal processing performance on the market, starting at 2 billion multiply/accumulates (MACs) per second at 250 MHz. TigerSHARC's Static Superscalar architecture provides single-chip native support for 8-, 16- and 32-bit data processing, each critical for the next generation of telecommunications protocols under development including IMT-2000. Motorola's ReFLEX(TM) Wireless Messaging Solution ADI will feature Motorola's ReFLEX two-way paging solution based on ADI's software radio technology, the AD6140 analog-to-digital converter (ADC). The AD6140 enables software radio technology to be used in power- and space-sensitive, two-way messaging applications. Hands-Free Car Kit Solution ADI's ADSP-ESP101 Embedded Speech Processing solution will be showcased in the booth. A complete hardware/software solution, the ADSP-ESP101 supports a variety of speech processing applications, most notably full-duplex, hands-free car kits. RF/IF Solutions for Digital Handsets Product portfolios and information will be available on ADI's offerings in the radio section of digital cellular and cordless handsets for a variety of cordless standards including CDMA, TDMA and GSM. About Analog Devices With fiscal 1998 sales of $1.23 billion, Analog Devices is a leading manufacturer of precision high-performance integrated circuits used in analog and digital signal processing applications. Headquartered in Norwood, Massachusetts, the company employs approximately 7,200 people worldwide and has manufacturing facilities in Massachusetts, California, North Carolina, Ireland, the Philippines and Taiwan. ReFLEX(TM) is a registered trademark of Motorola, Inc. BTW I think that the Intel/ADI is a win/win for ADI and Spectrum. Expect that the relationship between ADI and Spectrum will become clearer and more integrated once TigerSharc hits primetime Regards Norden SHARC is a registered trademark of Analog Devices, Inc.
