Business Wire
Silicon Image (NASDAQ: SIMG), a leading provider of HD
connectivity solutions, today announced the availability of a new
60GHz WirelessHD® omnidirectional RF receiver. The SiI6312 is a
small form factor integrated circuit (IC) that contains a complete
60GHz RF receiver with an on-chip embedded antenna array. Based on
the production-proven third-generation solution, the SiI6312 allows
a simple design option for original equipment manufacturers (OEMs)
who want to develop wireless receive adapters for HDTVs optimized
for use with WirelessHD-enabled mobile products. The SiI6312 is now
sampling to OEMs worldwide.
The SiI6312 is pin-compatible with the current SiI6310, which
enables easy upgrades to existing WirelessHD-compatible receive
adapters and embedded display designs. Combined with the SiI6321
WirelessHD Receiver Network Processor, the SiI6312 is ideally
suited for cost-effective mobile accessory products that can be
bundled with WirelessHD-capable mobile devices based on Silicon
Image’s UltraGig™ 6400 mobile transmitter.
