Texas Instruments introduced the highest level of radio-frequency (RF) sampling performance with the ADC32RF45, the industry’s fastest 14-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC).

Texas Instruments (TI) announced that its SimpleLink™ Wi-Fi® CC3100and CC3200 devices, designed for the Internet of Things (IoT), are now Wi-Fi CERTIFIED™ at the chip level. TI is the first company to have a chip achieve Wi-Fi Alliance® certification.  

 Summer is here, which means it’s time for grilling, pool parties and other outdoor fun with friends and family. Texas Instruments, Plotly and element14 are proud to announce a new competition designed to take summer activities to the next level: the Internet of the Backyard. 

Texas Instruments announced the addition of the RF Software Development Kit (RFSDK) to its Base Station SoftwarePac, enabling small cell developers to configure the baseband-to-radio communication and achieve first call or system verification in just one day compared to the weeks or months it took previously. With the new RFSDK, TI's KeyStone™- based TCI6630K2L small cell System-on-Chip (SoC) and TCI6631K2L backhaul SoC can now seamlessly implement digital radio functions like digital pre-distortion (DPD) and crest factor reduction (CFR), and use a JESD204B interface to communicate with TI's analog front end transceiver, the AFE7500, to maximize performance and system power efficiency. 

Texas Instruments (TI) expanded its RF portfolio today with the addition of high-performance RF gain blocks, down-converting mixers and a complex modulator that provide the industry’s best combination of power and performance. The new RF devices were demonstrated this week in TI's Booth 2041 at the International Microwave Symposium and complement TI's existing portfolio of transmit digital-to-analog converters (DACs), receive analog-to-digital converters (ADCs), IQ modulators, IF DVGAs, phase-locked loop (PLL) and RF synthesizers.

Texas Instruments (TI) and PureWave Networks Inc., an innovative provider of advanced, cost-effective wireless base stations, announced their collaboration on a first-of-its-kind single-board, end-to-end (ENET to RF) solution platform for enterprise and pico small cell base stations. The Hercules solutions platform utilizes TI's highly-integrated KeyStone™-based TCI6630K2L System-on-Chip (SoC), combined with TI's analog front end transceiver, the AFE7500, allowing customers to demonstrate 4G cellular functionality and performance right out of the box. 

Texas Instruments Inc. (TI) launched its latest Bluetooth® low energy application software, the BLE-Stack 1.2, designed to further drive Bluetooth Smart and Smart Ready devices such as wearables.

Texas Instruments Inc. (TI) and 6WIND announced support within the 6WINDGate^™ software solution for TI’s new scalable 28-nm multicore processors based on its recently announced KeyStone II multicore architecture. By providing a comprehensive, pre‐integrated suite of packet processing software, 6WINDGate eliminates the need for TI’s customers to invest their engineering resources into combining discrete protocols from multiple sources and/or designing custom optimizations.
