Wireless

The market for wireless communications has been growing rapidly, as features such as streaming audio and video are not only demanded, but expected by consumers. Sonics provides SoC designers of wireless products with on-chip communications solutions that deliver the platform flexibility and performance required to navigate through the maze of protocols and rapid market changes—all using a common architecture.

SonicsLX paves the way for cost-sensitive access point solutions, regardless of whether they are WiFi, WiMax, Bluetooth, or 3G/4G based. The unique architecture of SonicsLX also allows for straight-forward mixing and matching of these protocols for higher integration SoCs.

For more advanced solutions, SonicsMX provides SoC developers a seamless upgrade path to a higher performance on-chip connectivity solution for applications that require ultra-high protocol integration or to stream video over the communications protocol.

When coupled with a Sonics memory subsystem solution that uses Sonics MemMax Memory Scheduler as a foundation, achieving the high bandwidth from external DRAM has never been easier or more cost-effective.
