‘Buffer Amplifier’
A Electronicstalk guide
Start with the news release Maco cores get buffer management from Lattice Semiconductor UK, which we summarised at the time by saying "Lattice Semiconductor has announced that its LatticeSCM FPGA family-based SPI4.2 Maco (masked array for cost optimisation) cores have been enhanced by adding link layer buffer management options. ". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release Advanced Micro Peripherals offers the Vcodec-H264 from Advanced Micro Peripherals: "Advanced Micro Peripherals' Vcodec-H264 is a single channel H264 Codec on a single PC/104-plus form factor. ".
In November 2008, we covered the news from Mimix Broadband - take a look at Mimix offers MMIC core chip which says: "Mimix Asia has introduced an 8.5 to 11GHz gallium arsenide (GaAs) monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) core chip.".
Take a look also at the news release from Spectrum Systementwicklung Microelectronic, Spectrum introduces high-precision digitisers , as well as Murata develops 'smallest' isolator from Murata Electronics (UK), and Congatec AG presents the Conga-QA computer module from Congatec.
