SIGPRO's
flagship product is a powerful and programmable System-on-Chip
(SoC) engine called FLEXIUM™. The FLEXIUM™
SoC with accompanying software is an universal air-interface
engine that enables the next generation of wireless
personal communication devices (PCDs) to communicate
with high-speed wireless networks around the world.
Wireless
Internet: The FLEXIUM™ SoC engine is
the first of its kind for wireless mobility access
systems capable of supporting multiple speeds, multiple
air-interface Standards, and multiple applications
including communication, information, computation,
navigation, and entertainment services. SIGPRO's 'All-In-One'
innovation is 'the technology enabler' for the convergence
of all wireless applications and services onto a single
wireless terminal (PCD), thus spearheading the Wireless-Internet
revolution and paving the way for the evolution of
a nomadic communication culture.
Convergence Enabler:
SIGPRO's FLEXIUM™ is the first ever single chip
solution and true convergence enabler technology for
wireless mobility service users. With SIGPRO's FLEXIUM™
chipset, consumers will be able to enjoy the convenience
of using a single PCD to access a whole host of integrated
Wireless and Internet services.
All-In-One™:
The FLEXIUM™ enabled PCDs meet and/or exceed
Quality of Service (QoS) required for an integrated
wireless mobility access system consisting of a variety
of asynchronous and isochronous services including
near-toll quality telephony, high-speed data, mono-
& multi-media (text, audio, video) mails, web
browsing, e-commerce, high-speed up/down loading,
on-line PDA services, remote computing & file
transfers, personal navigation (GPS) services, audio/video
conferencing and entertainment (MP3, MPEG4) services.
The FLEXIUM™ product opens a whole new world
of handset design and use. OEMs can support any application
desired by the consumer, and the only limits on what
is possible lie in the imaginations of the designers.
Nomadic Culture:
Market research shows that consumers will readily
adopt these new 'All-In-One' devices with the desire
to be in motion and yet constantly connected at the
same time. These "nomads" will no longer
have to juggle two or three different devices to meet
all their needs, such as e-mail, GPS, phone, etc.
Flexium™
Key Features
The 'multiple application - one device' feature is just
one of the many reasons why OEMs (Original Equipment
Manufacturers) and Service Providers will favor SIGPRO's
FLEXIUM™ chipset for their PCDs. The key FLEXIUM™
features include:
(1) Multiple Standards:
FLEXIUM™ SoC supports multiple wireless mobility
air-interface Standards (2.5G, 3G, & 4G). FLEXIUM™
will truly provide "wireless global roaming".
(2) Extensive Programmability:
With its accompanying software, FLEXIUM™ can be
set into any one of the hundreds of available modes
of operation by the communicating base station. (3) High Data Rates:
FLEXIUM™ chip inside a PCD will support a wide
range of on-demand wireless access bandwidths of 20
to 2000 Kbps per terminal. 4) Compatibility:
FLEXIUM™ is backward compatible and paves a smooth
transition from 2G/2.5G to 3G/4G for all involved.
Flexium™ Advantage
SIGPRO's FLEXIUM™
family provides a wide range of benefits to
wireless handset OEMs, base station OEMs, Service
Providers and consumers alike.
