IDT Introduces World’s First True Single-Layer Multi-Touch Projected Capacitive Touch Screen Technology

SAN JOSE, Calif., December 7, 2010– Integrated Device Technology, Inc. (IDT®; NASDAQ: IDTI), the Analog and Digital Company™ delivering essential mixed-signal semiconductor solutions, today announced the world's first true single-layer multi-touch projected capacitive touch screen technology for screen sizes up to five inches. The latest technology addition to the IDT PureTouch® family streamlines touch screen sensor manufacturing and eliminates multi-touch ghosting effects common in self-capacitive multi-layer solutions.
IDT's single-layer multi-touch sensor design is a true single-layer design, not requiring additional mask steps for insulation of sensor crossover points and bridging of sensor matrix lines. By eliminating additional Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) layers required for other multi-touch technologies, IDT's new solution improves the transmittance of light, streamlines the fabrication of touch screen sensors, and reduces the overall cost for touch screen manufacturers. These benefits are delivered without compromising performance or the capability to detect multi-finger gestures.
“The explosion of touch interfaces in today's portable devices are driving developers to provide innovative solutions, and the new IDT touch screen technology empowers manufacturers to do just that," said Alvin Wong, general manager of the Advanced User Interface group at IDT."Standard capacitive touch screen sensors require up to three conductive layers, but the proprietary IDT single-layer technology eliminates the additional ITO layers yet maintains multi-touch capability. This is an industry first and our technology not only improves the end-user experience, but also helps designers and device manufactures lower their overall costs.”
Leveraging IDT's proprietary single-layer pattern, the latest addition to the IDT PureTouch family features enhanced multi-touch capability, allowing recognition of two simultaneous finger touches while eliminating the"ghosting" effect common with self-capacitive multi-layer solutions. This ghosting effect can result in ambiguous finger position coordinates when more than one finger is placed on the screen. In addition, IDT's single-layer pattern has equal resolution for the x and y axes resulting in a better user experience for both single and dual touch applications. By providing accurate multi-touch coordinates and equal resolution features, IDT's technology enables customers to create custom gestures to differentiate their end products and user interfaces.

The IDT VPS-1616 and VPS-1848 also support the key features of the previously announced IDT CPS-1616 and CPS-1848 Serial RapidIO Gen2 switches including, but not limited to, 100ns cut-through latency and 300mW per 10Gbps of traffic.
The IDT SPS-1616 is a 16x1/8x2/4x4 Serial RapidIO switch with hardware-based AES-128 encryption. Enabling this optional security feature provides encryption to the transmit side and decryption to the receive side of up to four x1 Serial RapidIO ports. Since the Serial RapidIO link-level crypto functions are handled by hardware, no processor intervention is required, reducing the overall cost of system deployment where out-of-the-box links need to be encrypted to meet security standards, such as in wireless LTE systems. Serial RapidIO data packets can be scrambled while delivering the full 5 Gbps of raw throughput with no increase in latency for each x1 link. The IDT SPS-1616 carries forward all of the key features of the IDT CPS-1616.
“IDT has provided key functionality to the new switches in our industry-leading Serial RapidIO portfolio in response to market needs,” said Fred Zust, vice president and general manager of the Communications division at IDT.“By including a hardware-based security engine within the switch, IDT is making LTE deployment more scalable and economical. In addition, virtual channels can improve Serial RapidIO network performance for better usage of available bandwidth and add a continuous transmission feature for use with real-time traffic, such as voice and video.”
By using the SPS-1616, wireless system OEMs can now make small form factor systems that are scalable by cabling boxes together. The device provides these systems low latency and high throughput between boxes without compromising security from the exposure of external ports. This is achieved without requiring expensive encryption processors, which add latency. By enabling this type of system in an economical way, IDT is enabling service providers to place more base stations further out in the network for better network coverage.

IDT Introduces World's Most Accurate All-Silicon CMOS Oscillator

SAN JOSE, Calif., October 21, 2010– Integrated Device Technology, Inc. (IDT®; NASDAQ: IDTI), the Analog and Digital Companydelivering essential mixed-signal semiconductor solutions, today announced the industry’s most accurate all-silicon CMOS oscillator, which achieves an industry-leading 100ppm total frequency error across temperature, voltage and other factors.
Using the patented IDT CMOS oscillator technology, the IDT3C02 oscillator replaces quartz crystal-based oscillators with a monolithic CMOS IC at a frequency accuracy of 100ppm and below, and at very thin form factors without the use of any mechanical frequency source or PLL. The product is specifically designed to work with next-generation storage, datacom and connectivity interfaces, such as 1Gb Ethernet, SAS, SuperSpeed USB (USB 3.0) and PCI Express. The product is a low-power, low-jitter replacement to general-purpose quartz crystal oscillators, making it ideal for server and enterprise designs as well as datacom devices with Ethernet ports.
“With its sub-100ppm total frequency error, the IDT3C02 is a major breakthrough in the timing industry” said Fred Zust, vice president and general manager of the Communications division at IDT.“An ideal choice over crystal alternatives, it expands on the all-silicon CMOS oscillators in wafer forms announced earlier this year and extends the IDT timing leadership.”
The IDT3C02 oscillator generates highly accurate frequencies on chip without relying on a piezo-electric or mechanical resonator. Built on a standard, readily available CMOS process, the device utilizes a programmable architecture and supports various configuration options to suit a broad range of applications. Perhaps most critical among these options is the frequency of operation, which is programmed by the factory and allows for shorter lead times, including unique or uncommon frequencies, compared with traditional quartz solutions.
In addition, the IDT3C02 oscillator is designed with a unique analog core, which consumes less than 2.5mA (unloaded, typical), and thus offers a lower power alternative to high frequency quartz- and PLL-based oscillators while delivering best-in-class -140dBc/Hz phase noise at 1MHz offset from carrier. The device is offered in industry-standard quartz crystal-compatible package of 5x3.2mm, but eliminates the need for hermetically sealed ceramic packaging and instead utilizes low-cost and thin-profile MSL1 plastic IC packaging.
The IDT3C02 also features a 200nA (typical) low power stand-by mode, and fast start-up time of 100us (typical). The combination of these features makes it ideal for power-sensitive designs and allows for frequent power cycling for further power savings. Because the device contains no moving elements and generates the frequencies electronically instead of using mechanical or piezo-electronic resonance, the all-silicon, monolithic implementation leads to excellent shock and vibration resistance.
Pricing and Availability
The IDT3C02 is currently sampling to qualified customers and is available in a 5x3.2mm package. The IDT3C02 is priced at $0.73 each in 1,000-unit quantities. For more information, please visitwww.idt.com/go/CMOS-Oscillators.
