Atheros and Digital 5 Collaborate on Wireless Digital Media Adapters

Digital 5, a developer of home content distribution software, is collaborating with Atheros Communications to create a reference design for low-cost, wireless-enabled digital media adapter and DVD player applications. The reference design is capable of wirelessly delivering a content from a Windows PC, media gateway, or Internet connection to a TV or audio system anywhere in the home. The design combines an Atheros 802.11a/b/g chipset with Super AG technology, an advanced digital media processor from ALi Corporation, and multimedia software from Digital 5 into a low-cost reference design that will enable Original Design Manufacturers (ODMs) and Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) to quickly bring to market a new class of low-cost digital media adapters and DVD players. http://www.digital5.com/http://www.atheros.com
