  16. Summary Low cost package 2Q06 • Fully integrated, “baseband-to-millimeter wave” Gbps SiGe radio chip sets are a reality • SiGe integration also makes possible the use of standard IC package solutions • Our Gen1 chipset consists of a complete I/Q receiver and transmitter • Baseband to/from 60GHz VCO/PLL, Filters, Mixers… • Capable of analog Up/Dn conversion or high-speed I/Q modulation • Gen1 chips are currently: • Packaged on a PCB eval board and includes an integral 7 dBi antenna, capable of Gbps rates over 10M, when drive by appropriate baseband. • For directional links, we also have a waveguide interface for the chips to be available in 2Q06. • Gen2 chips are in test with eval boards expected in 2Q06. They will have both a PCB with integral antenna and waveguide interface.
