2018-06-05 08:30 1414

Latest I/O Innovation drives modular design trend for smart phone, IoT, Industrial and Automotive applications

PORTLAND, Ore. and TAIPEI, , June 5, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Fresco Logic, a leading developer of high-speed connectivity ICs and solutions, today announced the availability of F-One™ Multi-Protocol Signal Aggregation Technology with its first generation FL6100 series of Silicon. FL6100 family chips including FL6101 and FL6102. The chips have already been deployed in projects at multiple Mobile phone companies and industrial customers. The petite but potent chip is currently offered in a 4x4 QFN package with a much smaller WLCSP package to follow next quarter. The chips and other products of Fresco Logic will be showcased at Computex Taipei 2018.

System designers continue to ask for more and more features from technology platforms, while mobile form factors and market trend are pushing designs to be more modular. These modular designs generate a need for a wide variety of interconnects for both data and control. The interconnect needs to be simple, reliable, cost-effective, and support slim and sleek industrial design

Fresco Logic's F-One technology, a family of highly-integrated aggregation controllers that can be used to flexibly and dynamically aggregate a variety of protocols into a single F-One serial channel, has wide application to multi-sensor environments, industrial IoT, networking security, automotive wire reduction, mobile device accessories.

F-One standardize and simplify the connection between modules in phone accessories, and industrial robot and various smart devices; In industrial IoT application, multiple edge sensors that connect to F-One chip which can detect any uninvited invasion across IoT networks, and collect status awareness of each node. F-One signal aggregation technology can reduce and organize the mess of the wires to drastically improve automobile harness and reliability.

"Traditional aggregation is homogeneous, supporting multiple channels of single protocol. Some others offer specialized functionality, audio plus a control channel, video plus remote control, designed to a particular static requirement but these tend to be expensive. None of these offer F-One's dynamically configured multi-protocol aggregation," said Jing-fan Zhang, CEO of Fresco Logic. "F-One is a media agonistic approach that can provide a single channel interconnect that accommodates all of my low-speed signaling needs without routing a bunch of dedicated wires and without re-architecting the I/O subsystem."

"The landscape of device interconnectivity and I/O is changing dramatically," said Eric Almgren, CEO of Keyssa Inc. "Fresco's signal aggregation technology, combined with Keyssa's contactless connector, offers OEMs entirely new ways to connect devices and design products. We are seeing market demand for our combined solution in applications such as mobile, modular computing, and docking, where multiple protocols need to move seamlessly from one device to another and current connector technology simply doesn't work."

Fresco Logic F-One™ FL6100 series support the following features:

  • Transport-Agnostic Aggregation Channel
    • Half Duplex (1 wire)
    • Full Duplex (2 wire)
    • On-chip or external transceiver option
  • Dedicated support for:
    • Display Port AUX Channel/HPD
    • I2C
    • SPI
  • Flexible I/O supports aggregation of:
    • Serial Ports/I2S/SMBus/PS2
    • GPIOs (buttons/LEDs)
    • Many other standard and proprietary protocols
    • Ability to manage latency and jitter per I/O
  • Integrated MCU option
  • Native Support for Keyssa KSSS104 60GHz Millimeter wave contactless connector

FL6100 Series is sampling to early adopter customers now, and will be available to the general market in Q3 2018. The Chongqing R&D center of Fresco Logic will provide design support for customers in China.
