Staccato Communications
PCI Express Wireless Host Controller Interface
Staccato Communications has announced the latest addition to its Ripcord2 range, the SC4503 PCI Express (PCIE) Wireless Host Controller Interface (WHCI) for wireless USB host applications.
Designed in a 65nm Cmos technology, the single-chip SC4503 implements an integrated Wimedia Mac and PHY and a high-performance PCIE interface.
The Ripcord2 WHCI is targeted for home and office applications, including notebook PCs, ultra-mobile PCs, netbooks and mobile internet devices.
The SC4503 features a 5 x 5mm package enabling low cost and small form factor designs.
It is claimed to be the first and only single-chip solution to achieve Wimedia PHY certification in Band Groups 1, 3 and 6.
Staccato also offers Ripcord2 WHCI reference designs in two form factors: a PCIE half-mini card and PCIE Express card/34.
Each reference design includes all the necessary hardware, software, firmware, documentation and support required to shorten customer development time.
