\nIntel has designed a chip that can receive and transmit WiMax and multiple Wi-Fi signals.<\/p>\n
Intel on Monday said it has designed a chip that can receive and transmit WiMax and multiple Wi-Fi signals and has developed other on-die technology to lower power consumption and reduce the size of the processor.<\/p>\n
\nIntel researchers outlined the achievements in four research papers presented at the International Solid-State Circuits Conference in San Francisco. The papers reflect some of the technology that may one day find its way in Intel chips for use in future mobile Internet devices.<\/p>\n
What Intel says it has accomplished is the building of a die that supports WiMax and Wi-Fi a\/g\/n. In integrating a transceiver capable of handling multiple frequencies on a single chip, Intel has eliminated the use of a “front-end module,” technology that performs the same function today on a separate die, Hossein Alavi, director of communications circuits at Intel labs, told InformationWeek. Eliminating the separate module would ultimately enable the building of a smaller processor with lower power consumption, two important attributes for portable Internet devices. <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
