TDK Semiconductor Announces New Fax/Modem Analog Front End

IRVINE, Calif.—(BUSINESS WIRE)—March 30, 2005— TDK Semiconductor Corp., a leader in the design and manufacture of mixed-signal communication semiconductors for world markets, unveiled today the latest member of its modem Analog Front End (AFE) family of devices. The new 73M1903C is optimized for emerging MFP/Fax architectures and features worldwide PSTN compliance with programmable line terminations.

"The 73M1903C integrates many features previously supported with external components and is the lowest cost solution for both low- and high-speed applications, including V.17/V.34 Fax, MFP, POS, and set-top boxes," according to Kourosh Boutorabi, product line manager for embedded modems at TDK. "A unique feature of this device is integrated support for software selectable PSTN terminations. This offers designers the ability to meet world requirements with one standard low-cost transformer DAA circuit."
