STMicroelectronics recently signed a deal with the Fraunhofer-Institut für Integrierte Schaltungen IIS to develop an integrated circuit for Digital Radio Mondiale (DRM) applications.
Uses include fixed and portable radios, car receivers, software receivers and PDAs.
“Allowing listeners to set their radio using station names or IDs, the ASIC will offer excellent audio quality and integration of sound with data and text,” the companies stated.
