ANALOG DEVICES VOIP SEMICONDUCTOR PROFILE
Analog Devices, Inc. (NYSE:ADI), with major operations in the DSP
market and wireless market has seemingly just begun to place a market focus on the VoIP market even though it is likely that
some companies use its extensive line of DSP, analog and mixed signal chip products for the design of VoIP phones and network
equipment.
Analog Devices addresses VoIP technology through a number of products
listed on its web site. These include the Fusiv-Vx-150 network processor, which has applications for VoIP customer premise
equipment such as analog telephone adapters and residential gateways. That chip came out in June of 2005 with a price tag
of $20.00.
.
Analog Devices also has VoIP reference design kit for the development
of VoIP system products. That design kit may include software from Unicoi. In April of 2005, Unicoi, whose chip development
partners include Analog Devices as well as Freescale Semiconductor, announced its Voice over Internet Protocol Reference Design.
