Tiny module embeds wireless USB

Design package includes a comprehensive platform for the development of embedded wireless USB devices based on the SDIO interface.

Wisair is helping bring embedded wireless USB technology to portable and handheld electronic devices with its new SDIO wireless USB device.

Based on the Wisair WSR601 low-power single chip, the design enables vendors to embed wireless USB into portable devices, such as digital still cameras, camcorders and smart phones, using the Secure Digital input/output (SDIO) interface.

"Wisair is committed to making the use of wireless USB the ultimate experience for consumers", says David Yaish, CEO of Wisair.

"As part of this effort, we are enabling module vendors to implement small-form-factor low-power modules based on our single chip".

"These modules will be utilised by OEMs to integrate Wireless USB into mobile devices".

The Wisair WSR601 single chip has received regulatory approvals in Japan, the USA and Europe, and was recently certified by the USB-IF.

The Wisair design package includes a comprehensive platform for the development of embedded wireless USB device solutions, based on the SDIO interface.

Using the development platform, hardware and software, developers can implement an embedded small form factor module that is controlled by the device side application CPU via the SDIO bus.

The SDIO development platform and small-form-factor module prototypes are available for delivery.
