| | Philips ships 15-millionth hybrid IC tuner for the digital TV market | |
Royal Philips Electronics (NYSE: PHG, AEX: PHI) today announced that it has sold 15
million hybrid analog/digital TV tuner chips, accounting for over 30 percent of the total number of tuner chips sold
worldwide since 2003. Philips' advanced versatile hybrid tuner chips meet the various worldwide standards for both
analog and digital devices. This integration simplifies the design process by combining both functionalities in a
single chip. By reducing the amount of discrete components manufacturers can easily and more cost-effectively
introduce new digital TV (DTV) devices, cable/terrestrial tuners and set-top boxes (STBs) with faster
time-to-market. |

| AMD Files Antitrust Complaint Against Intel In U.S. Federal District
Court | | SUNNYVALE, Calif. - AMD (NYSE: AMD) announced today that it filed an antitrust
complaint against Intel Corporation (“Intel”) yesterday in U.S. federal district court for the district of Delaware
under Section 2 of the Sherman Antitrust Act, Sections 4 and 16 of the Clayton Act, and the California Business and
Professions Code. The 48-page complaint explains in detail how Intel has unlawfully maintained its monopoly in the
x86 microprocessor market by engaging in worldwide coercion of customers from dealing with AMD. It identifies 38
companies that have been victims of coercion by Intel – including large scale computer-makers, small
system-builders, wholesale distributors, and retailers, through seven types of illegality across three continents.

| Micrel Offers Tiny New 40V PWM Boost Regulator Featuring | | San Jose, Calif., - Micrel Inc., (Nasdaq:MCRL), today launched the MIC2297, a powerful new high
voltage 40V PWM Boost Regulator. This chip, optimized for driving up to 10 LEDs in series, offers an innovative
brightness control feature that minimizes noise and EMI. This allows for an adjustable output current proportional
to an applied analog DC voltage or high-speed digital PWM signal. White LEDs are widely used in PDAs, GPS systems,
Smart Phones, PIC PCs, Digital Cameras, IP phones and LED flashlights. The IC is available in volume and pricing
starts at $1.33 for 1K quantity. | | Leer la noticia completa | Martes, 28 Junio, 2005 - 07:05 | |
| | | High-Speed, 12-bit Simultaneous-Sampling ADCs Offer ±10v, ±5v, and 0V
to 5V Inputs | SUNNYVALE, CA - Maxim Integrated Products (NASDAQ: MXIM) introduces the
MAX1304/MAX1305/MAX1306, MAX1308/ MAX1309/MAX1310, and MAX1312/MAX1313/MAX1314 simultaneous-sampling
analog-to-digital converters (ADCs). Compared to the Company's previous simultaneous-sampling ADCs, these devices
sample up to 8 channels simultaneously instead of 4, offer bipolar inputs without negative supply requirements, and
provide a 10x improvement in sampling rate, all while reducing footprint by a factor of 2.3x.

| Atmel's New SmartRF Wireless Data Transceiver Dramatically Lengthens
Battery Life and Cuts Chip Count | | Grenoble, France - Atmel® Corporation (Nasdaq: ATML),
announced today a new single-chip RF transceiver, providing high-level performance for ISM band applications, with
notably lowered current consumption and a 30 percent cut in the low bill-of-materials. The ATA542x tranceiver family
is targeting 315/345/433/868/915 MHz bands and represents a major step in the integration of RF transceivers. The
Image Rejection Mixer allows elimination of a SAW filter, the Low-IF architecture does not require external IF
filter, and the low loss integrated RX/TX switch eliminates need for an external switch. This typically allows 30
percent reduction in passive components versus current solutions. | | Leer la noticia completa | Martes, 28 Junio, 2005 - 07:01 | |

| | | Summit Introduces Industry's First Four-Channel Loss-Less Power Supply
Tracking and Sequencing Controller | | San Jose, Calif. - Summit Microelectronics
has expanded its communications power management family with the introduction of an innovative power supply
management controller. The SMT4504 combines three of the most essential power management functions - voltage
tracking, supply sequencing and voltage monitoring - in a single chip. Furthermore, this new device eliminates the
need for external MOSFET switches, thereby reducing board space and cost. Using Summit's SMT4504, system designers
can tailor their power control circuit to the system requirements by digitally programming the most essential
functions and parameters. |
