NEWPORT BEACH, Calif.-- Conexant Systems Inc. here today announced a deal with Connect One Ltd. to co-develop and sell a reference design platform for use in Internet-enabled devices. The reference design platform is based on Conexant's SmartSCM single-chip, analog-modem solution and Connect One's iChip line of embedded chips. Applications for the platform include set-top boxes, Internet-enabled televisions and game consoles, Web phones, and PDAs. "As the industry's first Internet-enabled modem reference design, this solution reduces the time and complexity of creating the next generation of Internet devices," said Germaine Ewing, senior product manager for Conexant's Personal Computing Division.
