chip set in conjunction with the 3893 WiSOC
BB/MAC. It conforms to the IEEE 802.11a, 802.11b and
802.11g protocols and therefore operates in both 2.4GHz
ISM and 5GHz UNII frequency bands. It provides a complete
PRISM reference design platform of hardware and software
to system providers or integrators requiring wireless data
communications capability. The Open Source Linux
operating system offers a flexible and extensible
development platform for making customized Access Points.
The Developers Kit includes a WLAN Access Point
reference design, configuration application, source code and
documentation. It supports the IEEE 802.11a/b/g network
specification for DSSS and OFDM signaling, providing
1-54Mbps data rates. Typical operating ranges are shown in
Table 1.
