We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "WLAN chipset",
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 Non-WLAN business leads strong quarter for Atheros from
Atheros Communications, which we summarised at the time by saying "Atheros Communications has announced financial results for the first quarter of 2007, with revenues up 9% from the same period during 2006".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release Wireless LAN chipsets top 100 million from
Atheros Communications: "In 2006, Atheros enjoyed an extraordinary year with 64% revenue growth to US $301.7 million, punctuated in the fourth quarter with the company's seventh quarter of consecutive growth".
In July 2006, we covered the news from Broadcom Corp
concerning its Intensi-fi chipsets
- take a look at Next-generation Wi-Fi chipset gathers momentum
which says: "Broadcom Corporation reports that its Intensi-fi family of draft-802.11n silicon devices is gaining momentum as more manufacturers and consumers adopt next generation Wi-Fi technology".
Take a look also at the news release from Texas Instruments (April 2006-), Dev kit eases wireless LAN integration,
as well as Phone platform puts voice over Wi-Fi from Texas Instruments (April 2006-),
and Developer kit eases Wi-Fi integration from Texas Instruments (April 2001-March 2006).
