Lattice Semiconductor Corporation announces the expansion of its Lattice Snap® wireless connector product family to support broader adoption of 60 GHz wireless technology in consumer and embedded applications. The new Lattice Snap modules, based on Lattice’s production-proven SiBEAM 60 GHz technology, enable manufacturers to easily integrate short-range, high-speed 60 GHz wireless links into their products.
To simplify the design process further, Lattice included the Snap modules, which are compliant with regulatory requirements in several jurisdictions, into their Snap evaluation kit for fast prototyping and time-to-market.
By eliminating the connector, the industrial designs of new products can be optimized by making them thinner, lighter, and environment-proof, all while maintaining a robust and high-speed connection. To enable faster prototyping for both existing and new customers, Lattice created the Snap Evaluation Kit, which includes the modules, system design guidelines and improved de-bug tools.
Key features of the Snap modules include:
Fully integrated power regulation, timing, 60 GHz antenna design & regulatory compliance
A plug and play approach to enabling a short range, high speed, wireless link
