HelloSoft has licensed its HelloWLAN IEEE802.11 b 'designer-tailored' IP to Actel's Protocol Design Services Group

HelloSoft has licensed its HelloWLAN IEEE802.11 b 'designer-tailored' IP to Actel's Protocol Design Services Group, a leading supplier of hardware and software design services to companies throughout the world. The HelloWLAN solution consists of the complete PHY and MAC for the IEEE802.11-series wireless LAN standards, including security, and is available as 'designer-tailored' licensable IP for semiconductor vendors and OEMs.

The solution is unique in that it is fully customisable allowing developers to specify the hardware/software partitioning for their specific target platform to optimally leverage existing resources and to minimise additional hardware costs.

The agreement with Actel includes licensing of real-time software and RTL implementations of the HelloWLAN IEEE 802.11 b PHY and MAC.

'HelloSoft's comprehensive suite of wireless LAN IP, available in various formats, allowed us to select our optimal configuration and customise the 802.11 protocol to meet our requirements for the development of custom wireless designs for our customers', said Tony Farinaro, Vice President and GM of the Protocol Design Services Group.

'After evaluating numerous competitive offerings in the marketplace, we selected the HelloSoft solution because it provided us the required flexibility for our design'.

'Actel's confidence in HelloSoft's IP reinforces our belief that we have the most robust, feature-rich customisable 802.11 solution in the market', stated Krishna Yarlagadda, President and CEO, HelloSoft.

'We are particularly proud to be able to add Actel to our ever-growing list of customers, and this continues our strategy of supplying technology to the world's leading silicon companies'.
