Intersil: Intersil Showcases New Technology at International CES
LAS VEGAS, NV--(Marketwire - January 7, 2009) - INTERNATIONAL CES -- [ Intersil Corporation ] (
Intersil's D2Audio DTV SoundSuite™ Demonstration
Intersil's D2Audio SoundSuite collection of advanced audio processing technologies delivers a rich and vibrant audio experience, improving the normally flat audio performance of most consumer devices. The live demo, powered by D2Audio's latest Digital Audio Engine (DAE-4) will allow visitors to experience how SoundSuite products, with psycho-acoustic enhancements, dramatically improve the listening experience in 2-channel and multi-channel systems. The demonstrated set of SoundSuite advanced intelligent features include:
-- D2Audio WideSound™: An advanced 2-channel image field enhancement using optimized spatialization -- D2Audio DeepBass™: A sophisticated bass frequency enhancement technique using psycho-acoustic technology and dynamic equalization -- D2Audio AudioAlign™: Sound position and alignment to the video display -- D2Audio DigitalEQ™: System level loudspeaker correction and optimization, combined with content/source enhancement.
ISL29015 Proximity Sensor
Intersil is the recognized leader in Ambient Light Sensor technology, delivering unmatched spectral response performance in any light condition. This product line has won or been nominated for some of the industry's most prestigious innovation awards and includes both light-to-current and light-to-digital options in clear ODFN packaging. The [ ISL29015 ] proximity sensor, the latest in this family of products, will be on display.
The [ ISL29015 ] combines an ambient light sensor along with an integrated infrared sensor, an LED driver for an external infrared LED, and signal conditioning processing. This one-chip proximity sensing solution eliminates up to four external discrete functions, increasing available board-space. The demonstration will enable booth visitors to see the ICs ambient light sensing and proximity sensing performance in real-time, as well as the configuration software that is bundled with the evaluation boards available through the Intersil website.
Booth Activity
Intersil's President and Chief Executive Officer David B. Bell, along with many other analog and mixed signal experts will be available for press and analyst interviews throughout the conference. To schedule an interview before or during CES, please contact Adam Latham at (321) 724-7982, or by email at [ alatham@intersil.com ].
The Intersil D2Audio booth will have 14 different live demonstrations. Visitors will receive free D2Audio tee-shirts and become eligible for iPod and Guitar Hero giveaways.
