Maxim offers unprecedented
analog/mixed-signal integration for
mobile devices and connected home
applications.
Sunnyvale, CA-January 5, 2012-Maxim
Integrated Products Inc. (NASDAQ:
MXIM) today announced its TINI family
of highly integrated SoCs and codecs
for consumer applications. Offering
unparalleled functional integration,
TINI products enable system designers
to free board space for new
differentiating features in
smartphones, tablet PCs, smart TVs,
and home-monitoring cameras.
"Moore's law has been a driving force
for innovation over the last half
century," explained Vijay Ullal,
Group President of Consumer and
Automotive Solutions at Maxim. "But
as the semiconductor industry
approaches the limits of transistor
scaling, design engineers must look
beyond the digital domain to find
space for new features in tight
enclosures. Maxim is strategically
addressing this challenge with our
portfolio of TINI SoCs and codecs.
Built using the company's
state-of-the-art process and
packaging technologies, TINI products
deliver the highest level of
analog/mixed-signal integration
available. So our customers can
continue to make their products
smarter by adding new capabilities
and functions," Ullal added.
Premier products in the TINI
portfolio include:
-
TINI Power SoCs-Integrate all the
functional blocks needed to power
applications and baseband
processors, along with crucial
mixed-signal functions like audio,
battery management, and
touch-screen control. These Power
SoCs allow mobile platform system
designers to cut their analog
footprint in half.
-
TINI Touch-Screen Controller SoC
()-Integrates industry's highest
SNR capacitive touch analog
front-end (AFE) with full backend
processing on Maxim's MAXQ CPU
enhanced with custom DSP
co-processor. A super narrowband
AFE provides breakthrough immunity
to AC charger and LCD noise without
any external components.
-
TINI Remote Cam SoC ()-Provides a
complete audio/video subsystem with
H.264 compression, ARM® processor,
and peripherals for home-monitoring
IP cameras. This integration
enables extremely small form
factors, so that end users can
place the cameras just about
anywhere.
-
TINI TV Cam SoC (MAX64180)-Offers a
fully integrated solution for HD
video cameras in smart TVs. This
integration allows system designers
to embed the video camera directly
inside the TV bezel.
-
TINI Audio Codecs (, )-Combine
multiple high- performance audio
blocks with Maxim's proprietary
FlexSound® processor. These audio
codecs let designers overcome
integration challenges in mobile
products while delivering the best
audio experience.
Maxim is aggressively investing in its
analog integration capabilities, and
will continue to build out its TINI
portfolio with other highly integrated
solutions in the future.
