SAN JOSE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dec. 11, 2003
Industry's Lowest-Priced 2.4 GHz Radio System-on-a-Chip and
Development Kit Now in Full Production
Cypress Semiconductor Corporation (NYSE:CY), the industry leader in USB, today announced general availability of WirelessUSB(TM) LS, the industry's most-affordable 2.4 GHz radio system-on-a-chip, and a WirelessUSB LS development kit.
With a transmit-only device (CYWUSB6932) priced starting at $1.95 in 100,000-unit quantities, and a transceiver version (CYWUSB6934) beginning at $2.20, WirelessUSB LS offers manufacturers and end-users of wireless PC Human Interface Devices (HIDs) video game console peripherals and remote controls the best combination of performance and cost versus competing wireless technologies.
WirelessUSB LS devices communicate at distances of up to 10 meters, with an average latency of less than four milliseconds and a transmission rate of 62.5 kbps. Featuring a highly integrated radio transceiver plus digital baseband on a single chip, the technology enables designers to significantly decrease development time, component count and system cost while improving operating range, power-consumption and latency. Operating in the 2.4 GHz global ISM band, WirelessUSB LS also allows customers to deploy their solutions worldwide, regardless of regional frequency requirements.
