APPLICATIONS
● High Data Rate Wireless LAN● PC Card Wireless LAN Adapters
● PCI Wireless LAN Cards (Using Ext. Bridge Chip)
● Wireless LAN Modules
● Wireless LAN Access Points
● Wireless Bridge Products
● Wireless Point-to-Multipoint Systems
FEATURES
● New start up modes allow the PCMCIA Card Information Structure to be initialized from a serial EEPROM. This allows firmware to be downloaded from the host, eliminating the parallel Flash memory device.● Firmware can be loaded from serial Flash memory.
● Direct attachment to a typical x16 SRAM using five control signals (RAMCS_, MOE_, MWEL_, MLBE_, and MUBE_).
● Low frequency crystal oscillator to maintain time and allow baseband clock source to power off during sleep mode.
● Improved performance of internal WEP engine.
● On-chip execution can now be viewed while in debug mode.
● Independent programmable cycle timing for external chip selects allows attachment of slow memory devices without compromising higher speed instruction execution.
