About SiGe

SiGe's innovative radio frequency (RF) solutions enable the wireless multimedia networks and applications that consumers around the world depend on and enjoy every day. New wireless applications and networks are rapidly expanding. You can count on SiGe's technical and market expertise to solve the resulting technical challenges.

Spanning the consumer, mobile, and computing marketplace, our diverse and comprehensive portfolio provides the performance, range, and reliability required by 802.11b/g/a and n WiFi, Bluetooth®, WiMAX, GPS, and home entertainment systems. SiGe Semiconductor delivers the freedom of wireless, providing original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) with a necessary competitive edge.

Applications

Computing

For today’s consumer, ‘computing’ has evolved into wireless networking – whether in the home, office, coffee shop, or airport. With wireless broadband and Bluetooth access, it is possible to quickly and easily link laptops, desktops, printers, digital cameras, telephones, displays, portable navigation devices (PND’s) and portable digital assistants (PDAs), transferring and sharing files all with the experience and freedom of wireless connectivity! To enable these wireless networking connections, SiGe designers optimize for power efficiency, error vector magnitude (EVM), small size, and optimal control circuitry to ensure leading edge wireless performance.

Home Entertainment

Home entertainment is perhaps one of the most promising consumer markets today. The potential of wireless gaming in the home is quickly being realized, and soon we can expect over-the-air, in-house streaming video to become commonplace. These types of home entertainment applications are particularly well suited for SiGe's unique technologies, which are specifically designed to enable cost-effective wireless multimedia communications operating in environments crowded with wireless signals.

Mobile Devices

Cellular and Bluetooth are established technologies in the consumer marketplace, and SiGe offers state-of-the-art solutions to help these products take advantage of size and efficiency. Some of the latest mobile designs are now being enhanced with WLAN and WiMAX functionality as well as location and mapping services that are dependent on Global Positioning System (GPS) satellite data. SiGe has field-proven designs that enable GPS reception to small mobile devices, highly integrated front end modules (FEM’s) for wireless LAN and our high efficiency WiMAX PA’s all offer the additional benefit of industry-leading power efficiency to extend battery life – a key requirement in the global mobile marketplace.
