Product Brief
Startup aims first chip at Bluetooth wireless comm
11/1/2000 8:31 AM EST
Santa Clara, Calif. - Global Communication Technology has capped a development effort in South Korea with its corporate launch here and the launch of its first product: an 8 x 8-mm chip, the GDM1100, that integrates a 2.4-GHz transceiver and a Gaussian frequency-shift-keying modem for implementing Bluetooth wireless communications.
The transceiver includes a frequency-hopping synthesizer and analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog converters for the baseband interface.
Injae Choe, manager of strategic planning and business development, said the company plans a range of ICs for personal-area networking.
The GDM1100 is manufactured on a 0.25-micron CMOS process and operates from a single 2.7-volt supply. The chip employs a direct down-conversion design that exceeds Bluetooth 1.0A requirements for adjacent channel and image rejection.
The part is currently priced from $10 in quantities of 100,000, but Choe said the target price is $5.
