Dual-band chip set unites 802.11a, b, g WLAN standards

17 July 2002 Telecoms, Datacoms, Wireless, IoT

Intersil has introduced a dual-band 802.11a and 802.11g wireless local area networking (WLAN) solution capable of transmitting high-speed video, voice and data at speeds of up to 54 Mbps while remaining 100% backward compatible to the existing installed base of over 15 million Wi-Fi (802.11b) systems worldwide.

The new PRISM Duette, a unique two-chip solution, allows seamless mobility between 2,4 GHz and 5 GHz WLANs. It features Intersil's highly integrated Baseband Processor and Medium Access Controller (BBP/MAC) and direct down conversion (ZIF) architecture and uses dual-band OFDM-based (orthogonal frequency division multiplexing) technology.
