Price Drop for ultra-compact
Multi-Chip Modules
Reduces developers’ time to market with rapid FireWire
integration and optional DSP & FPGA capabilities
ITHACA,
NY, September 25th, 2003:
Traquair Data Systems, Inc. today announced lower pricing for the UC1394a-1
ultra-compact multi-chip module. The price drop follows the successful
launch of the product earlier this year, providing the means for developers
to integrate their products with FireWire in as little as a day. If
needed, developers can also exploit an on-board DSP and FPGA for even
more specific application requirements.
The UC1394a-1 acts
as a ready to use
FireWire interface, allowing developers to integrate their hardware
via a 16-bit parallel data port, and stream
application data across FireWire at up to 32Mbytes/sec without any
required software development.

Also claiming fame as a “DSP board the size of a coin”,
the UC1394a-1 can be utilized as a very small embedded
DSP system, providing developers with a programmable DSP processor,
FPGA, and an extensive range of communication and I/O resources in a
tiny surface mounting 30x36mm PLCC package.
The UC1394-1 multi-chip module features a 2-port IEEE 1394a FireWire
Interface, a Texas Instruments TMS320C5509 DSP Processor, Xilinx 50kGate
Spartan®-II FPGA, 8MBytes SDRAM, and 512kBytes of FLASH ROM - all
contained within a tiny 30mm x 36mm, 116 pin PLCC footprint.
