Conexant Systems, a provider of semiconductor solutions for imaging, audio, embedded modem, and video surveillance applications, has teamed with AnyDATA Corporation to deliver “connected” frame and home security reference designs for products used in 3G broadband cellular networks. The new solutions were demonstrated for the first time at Mobile World Congress.

The first reference design is targeted at “connected” frames and interactive display devices that allow consumers to access pictures, videos, and other multimedia content from the Internet in real-time, and view the files on devices with large colour displays and touch-screen functionality. The second reference design is aimed at motion-triggered alarm systems with visual verification capabilities used in “smart” home security applications. The reference designs feature Conexant’s CX92735 imaging and CX93510 video surveillance solutions, and AnyDATA’s DTP-600W 3G high-speed data packet access (HSDPA) cellular module.

“Leveraging AnyDATA’s expertise in 3G wireless solutions allows us to broaden our scope and address emerging imaging and video surveillance opportunities in the adjacent telecommunications sector,” said René Hartner, vice president of video product marketing and ecosystem partners for Conexant.

Dr. Soon Shin, AnyDATA CEO, stated, “Integrating Conexant’s industry-leading imaging and video technologies with our globally certified module allows carriers and OEMs to launch exciting connected devices that quickly create new revenues and set them apart from the competition.”

Conexant’s high-performance CX92735 imaging solution supports streaming media content, MP3 audio playback with slideshow functionality, and multiple connectivity options. It is compliant with industry-standard video and audio formats including MPEG-4 and MP3.

Conexant’s CX93510 encoder allows video streams to be captured and recorded simultaneously and includes support for passive infrared technology. The low-power device operates at 12 milliamperes (mA) in full power and 10 nanoamps (nA) in sleep mode, which maximizes battery life. This is an important feature to alarm companies, many of which are targeting two-to-five years of system operation before battery replacement is required. Additional features include motion JPEG compression and Conexant’s proprietary differential encoding technology, which dramatically reduces the amount of bandwidth and time required to transmit video files.

AnyDATA’s high-speed DTP-600W module transmits data at broadband speeds of 3.6 Mbps downlink and 384 kbps upstream. The 3G module has received Technical Acceptance by AT&T and Vodafone for use on their wireless data networks, and has been certified by key industry agencies. The AnyDATA HSDPA module operates globally on tri-band UMTS 850/1900/2100 and quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE 850/900/1800/1900 wireless networks.
