Zigbee vs. Bluetooth
Is Bluetooth about to be uprooted?
In the last issue we discussed the current push for Wireless USB and how it will affect the market for Wireless Personal Area Networks (WPANs) currently presided over by Bluetooth. But we should also discuss ZigBee, another new technology based on the IEEE 802.15 standard used by Bluetooth. To be precise, ZigBee is based on IEEE 802.15.4 whereas Bluetooth is built around IEEE 802.15.1 - it’s similar, but of course different. How different?

 |
Does the equipment you manufacture or distribute operate under 1000V AC or 1500V DC? |
 |
Is the electronic product or equipment destined for any of the counties in the European Union? |
 |
Are electrical or electronic components required to fulfill the Products primary function? Can the product work without electronic components, or are the electronics an integral part of the product? |

Benefits of Utilizing an FPGA to Structured ASIC Design Flow
Structured ASICs provide a solution for high-volume production at less risk than standard-cell ASICs. Conceived to bridge the gap between standard-cell ASIC technology and FPGAs, these devices feature standard-cell ASIC-like performance at low unit costs combined with faster development times.

Get Ready, Get Set, Hike!
The annual Hike-For-A-Cure is around the corner. Shoes are being dusted off, muscles are being pumped, fundraising is reaching new heights, and training is in full swing. Half Dome, here we come!
That’s right, Sunday September 25 th is the big day! Hikers arrive on Friday and Saturday, and all stay together in Curry Village, Yosemite. Starting early in the wee hours of the morning, the group takes on 4800 vertical feet and 18 miles round trip to raise money for research into a cure for Histiocytosis.
