Overview: BGW200 Low-power WLAN SiP
Optimized for low-power mobile applications, this complete, single-package 802.11b solution combines a baseband/MAC, RF transceiver, and power amplifier into an ultra-small (150 mm2) package. It delivers the industry’s lowest power consumption in standby mode and supports coexistence with Bluetooth® solutions. Complete, single-package 802.11b solution for mobile handheld devices Semiconductors
The BGW200 is a complete, low-power 802.11b Wireless LAN (WLAN) System-in-a-Package (SiP) solution optimized for battery-powered handheld devices. It enables consumers to connect to the growing number of WLAN networks in offices, homes, and public places. It also allows service providers to increase their network reach and customer base, enabling complementary data and voice services across cellular/PCS and WLAN networks. Coexistence support for Bluetooth 1.1 and 1.2 enables seamless integration with Philips Bluetooth solutions. The SiP format, with its complete system functionality, delivers quicker design cycles, lower risk, simplified manufacturing, and a reduced bill of materials. The single-package format also simplifies assembly and testing, and reduces yield losses. The SiP delivers a complete, fully tested implementation of 802.11b functionality, so development teams can focus their energy on innovative product design instead of solving complex issues related to RF layout.
