We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "TQFP",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Electronicstalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Video decoder and HD digitiser come together from
Analog Devices, which we summarised at the time by saying "Complete single-chip system for improving video image and colour quality in advanced high-definition TVs, video processors, audio/video receivers and DVD recorders".
The same day,
we featured the news release Low-power A/D convertors hit medical target from
Texas Instruments (April 2006-): "Eight-channel ADCs feature market-leading power consumption - 30% less than competing solutions".
In January 2008, we covered the news from Micrel
concerning its MIC2341 and MIC2342
- take a look at Hot-swap controllers meet PCIe specs
which says: "Ideal for high-performance enterprise computing network system processor boards, DDR memory boards, embedded systems and gigabit Ethernet addon cards".
Take a look also at the news release from Linear Technology Corp, High-temperature ADC for automotive and military,
as well as Blu-Ray Disc camcorder includes USB link from PLX Technology Europe,
and Microcontroller family expands to 32bit sphere from Microchip Technology.
