Start with the news release Oscillator achieves ultra-low phase noise from Z-Communications, which we summarised at the time by saying "Z-Communications has announced an RoHS-compliant VCO (voltage-controlled oscillator) in S-band for digital radio and fixed wireless applications that require ultra-low phase noise performance. ". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release EASA certifies avionics unit with Altera processor from Altera: "The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) has certified a safety-critical avionics system that includes a DO-254/ED-80-certifiable version of Altera's Nios II embedded processor.".
 
In December 2010, we covered the news from Texas Instruments - take a look at Power-management controller for standard MOSFETs which says: "Texas Instruments has introduced a power-management controller and driver for standard and logic-level N-channel MOSFETs used for low-voltage, secondary-side synchronous rectification. ".
 
Take a look also at the news release from Ocean Blue, Ocean Blue offers USB video recorder software, as well as Ocean Blue SoCs suited for connected TV products from Ocean Blue, and Gain blocks for cellular bands GSM, CDMA and UMTS from Avago Technologies.
