SiPort Inc. — which we’ve reported has been developing a single chipset solution for HD Radio tuners —says Ibiquity Digital has certified its new IC.
The SP1010 single-chip HD Radio Receiver provides digital and analog FM performance for the mobile, tabletop and automotive aftermarket markets. The SP1010 is in production and SiPort will begin shipping the receiver chip in volume in September.
CEO Sid Agrawal said the certification “gives our customers a best-in-class solution for audio and data services on both mobile and traditional radio platforms.”
LG-Innotek is sampling its HD Radio module based on SiPort’s SP1010 single chip HD Radio receiver for the automotive, tabletop, home theatre and mobile HD Radio markets. LG-Innotek will be in full production in the fourth quarter of this year.
