ROLLING MEADOWS, Ill., Feb 12, 2003 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- PrairieComm,
Inc., an industry leader in UMTS technology, today announced the commercial
availability of the PCI5110 multi-mode integrated baseband processor,
PrairieComm's QuikDraw (Development Reference and Application Workbench)
platform, and a complete reference architecture for delivery in the second
quarter of this year. This complete UMTS solution has demonstrated UMTS and GSM
voice calls and high-speed data calls-including both UMTS and GPRS. The PCI5110
has achieved UMTS data calls at 64, 128, and 384 kbps. This single- chip
multi-mode solution decreases the total parts count thereby reducing cost,
providing greater efficiency, decreasing power consumption, and shortening the
entire design cycle. PrairieComm's PCI5110 UMTS/GSM/GPRS baseband processor and
PCI5000 protocol stack enable 3G speed and multimedia applications on handsets
similar in size to today's 2G terminals. Production samples are now shipping to
customers and will be used in upcoming commercial trials. The PCI5110, PCI5000,
and QuikDraw platform will be demonstrating PrairieComm's UMTS technology at the
3GSM World Congress in Cannes, February 18 - 21.
3G's success depends on the ability of handsets to concurrently enable 3G
services like "always-on" data and backwards compatibility with existing
networks. PrairieComm has ensured 3G success by working closely with several
infrastructure manufacturers on rigorous interoperability testing. PrairieComm's
system-level expertise and close customer-partnerships enables a robust
UMTS/GSM/GPRS solution that delivers this requirement-today.
PrairieComm's PCI5110 enables high-speed, data-intensive multimedia
applications, as well as WAP and the Bluetooth specification for short-range
wireless connectivity. The PCI5110 supports full 384 kbps transmission and
reception and Class 12 GSM/GPRS, utilizing Turbo Coding for high-speed data
transmission. The chip also incorporates a USB interface capable of 12Mbps.
Built on an ARM946 32-bit RISC microprocessor core using PrairieComm's power
conscious architecture, the PCI5110 extends handset battery life with multiple
built-in power modes. With PrairieComm's multi-mode single-chip solution, 3G
handset manufacturers can design and market competitively sized handsets with
advanced features.
The complete product reference architecture enables customers to expedite their
development cycle to reduce time-to-market. This reference architecture,
together with the QuikDraw development platform, creates a rapid prototype
environment that quickly integrates PrairieComm's technology into customer
products. The modularity of the QuikDraw platform exposes all signals required
to connect to additional peripherals and logic/test analyzers including JTAG,
UART, USB, SIM card interfaces, full GPIO access, and RF transceiver data and
control interface. Customers have used this reference architecture and
development platform to achieve full UMTS calls on a UMTS base station in less
than three months from design commencement.
