AIRFORCE ONE™ CHIP 802.11 REFERENCE DESIGN
KEY FEATURES
POWER MANAGEMENT
• Industry's smallest IEEE 802.11b solution makes wireless LAN
connectivity practical for pocket-sized electronic devices
• Extreme integration includes radio, baseband, MAC, power
amplifier, and all other radio frequency (RF) components
found on a typical wireless LAN board—making small mobile
devices easier, less expensive and faster to manufacture
• Innovative power management reduces power consumption by
up to 97% in standby mode, providing greatly extended battery
life for mobile devices
• Cost-effective architecture with single-sided all-CMOS design
eliminates over 100 components, providing more affordable
wireless connectivity for consumer electronics
• High-performance features standard across the AirForce
product line:
- OneDriver™
