San Jose, CA, 2004-05-05 - Pericom Semiconductor Corporation
(NASDAQ: PSEM), a worldwide preferred supplier
of high-performance integrated circuits and frequency control products, today
expanded the
breadth of its SiliconInterface Logic portfolio with three new
advanced ultra-low voltage CMOS logic devices that are optimized for 1.8V with
operation from 0.8V to 2.7V and tolerant to 3.6V .
Pericom’s new PI74AUCxxx are ideal anywhere a need for a high-performance
and
low-voltage buffer, transceiver, and level shifting applications between
0.8V, 1.2V, 1.5V, 1.8V, 2.5V and 3.3V signals are required. Such markets
include
Consumer Electronics, Handheld systems, Communications Devices, PCMCIA Cards,
Switches / Routers, Servers, Base Stations, Test
Equipment, and Industrial
Computers.
“As applications move to lower operating voltages for increasing battery
life, and higher
speeds for better performance, the new AUC family provides
solutions for designers developing mixed voltage systems between 0.8V, 1.2V,
1.5V,
1.8V and 2.5V, ” explains Jaci Chang, Product Marketing Engineer. “And
with additional 3.6V tolerance, Pericom’s AUC
products also provide legacy
support that extends the life of a system,” Chang continued.
Products Now Available:
- PI74AUC16244: 16-bit Buffer/Driver
- PI74AUC16245: 16-bit Bi-directional
Transceiver
