Gainesville, FL - January
10, 2007 - The Athena Group, Inc., a leading provider
of high-performance, low-power signal processing products,
today announced the general availability of its silicon-proven,
extreme performance FFT product line of IP cores for broadband
communications. The Athena Atomic Signal Processing library
now supports sampling rates ranging from kilohertz to 500
MegaSamples per second and beyond.
"We are proud Athena has
been able to sustain our technology lead in the FFT market,"
says Dr. Jon Mellott, CTO of Athena. "As the broadband
communications industry continues to adopt new protocols and
increase throughput, the need for ever faster FFT cores continues
to drive our innovation. Athena now has a variety of architectures
that can address throughputs in the 500 MegaSample range and
beyond, while maintaining the power efficiencies that customers
have come to expect from Athena."
Athena's proprietary arithmetic
technology enables extraordinary throughput levels with superb
power efficiency and area conservation. Years of research,
development, and refinement have produced an incomparable
array of Athena signal processing accelerators, with unmatched
performance in both FFT accelerators and the TeraFire®
public key cryptographic accelerators. While more efficient
at any performance level, Athena's technology easily scales
to extreme high performance, making it ideal for the most
challenging applications - whether that challenge is total
performance or minimum power consumption. Applications ranging
from GPS filters to WiFi, WiMAX, and even space-based reconfigurable
receivers, all find Athena's unique technology delivers unmatched
results.
