National Semiconductor Showcases Latest Analog Products and
Highlights Its Innovative PowerWise Power Management Solution at
ARM Developers' Conference An Invitation to Visit National at the
ARM Developers' Conference, Santa Clara Convention Center, October
19-21, Booth #419 SANTA CLARA, Calif., Oct. 19
/PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- WHAT: The ARM Developers' Conference
showcases ARM and its technology and tools partners, including
National Semiconductor's PowerWise(TM) technology for powering
next-generation portable devices. The conference offers more than
180 classes, labs, hands-on workshops and panel discussions, with
presentations from five of National's portable power management
engineers. NATIONAL DEMOS: National will feature four power-saving
technology and product demonstrations: -- PowerWise Technology --
Adaptive Voltage Scaling -- DVS926 Platform This demo shows power
reduction using dynamic and adaptive voltage scaling running an
MPEG4 movie clip to demonstrate power savings. This demo also
highlights the ARM Intelligent Energy Manager (IEM) plus National's
PowerWise APC and LP5550 EMU -- PowerWise Technology -- Dual Domain
Adaptive Voltage Scaling Featuring a PowerWise-Enabled Camera: This
demo shows multi-voltage-domain adaptive voltage scaling on the
TSMC 130nm process with dual ARM7 TDMI-S CPU cores running up to
96MHz. The demonstration platform will include full instrumentation
to display measured power reduction with voltage and frequency
scaling. This is the first demonstration of a fully integrated
PowerWise Advanced Power Controller (APC) and provides active image
captures. -- PWI(TM) Open-Standard Evaluation Kit Demonstrates the
PWI open-standard interface for connectivity between SoC and the
voltage regulation system -- PWI-Compliant Energy Management Unit
Highlights National's LP5550 and PWI 1.0-compliant EMU --
"Flip-style" cellular handset: This demonstrates National's
technology leadership products for cellular handsets and features
the LM4857 3D/stereo audio subsystem, highly power-efficient
LP3936, FPD94028/93140 chipset, and LM2501/02 chipsets with Mobile
Pixel Link technology. NATIONAL SPEAKERS: National technologists
