The Intersil ISL37400M WLAN miniPCI (Note 1) is a complete wireless high speed network interface card (NIC) utilizing the Intersil PRISM 2.5 Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS) Wireless Transceiver chip set. It provides a complete PRISM 2.5 reference design evaluation platform of hardware and software to system providers or integrators requiring wireless data communications capability and is ideal for integration into computer platforms.

Evaluation kits include a WLAN miniPCI and a WLAN PCMCIA designed to Intersil's PRISM reference design,Microsoft® Windows® driver, LAN evaluation software, PRISM Transmitter Test Utilities (PTTU) software (Note 3) and documentation to get your evaluation started quickly. It supports the IEEE802.11 network specification for DSSS signaling, providing data rates of 1, 2, 5.5 and 11Mbps. Access points are available from a number of suppliers, enabling a total wireless network solution. Typical operating ranges are shown in Table 1.

A complete PRISM chipset WLAN reference design package (ISL37400M-CD) is also available. The reference design package contains all the documentation needed for the manufacture of the PRISM 2.5 miniPCI WLAN card including Cadence/Allegro Layout, Gerber files, Concept Schematic, Bill of Materials, Assembly and Mechanical Drawings, Test Plan, and a copy of the application for FCC equipment authorization. Customers who license the reference design also receive password access to Intersil's Premier Web Site for up-to-the-minute updates on hardware and software.
