PolyRadio™ wireless multi-mode RF ICs

Helic designs chips and modules that enable mobile communication devices to roam seamlessly between wireless digital networks. Helic’s PolyRadio™ is a unique mix of proprietary RF technologies, enabling the integration of multiple wireless transceivers on a single piece of silicon.

Detailed specifications on the following range of transceiver products can be requested through our contact page:

  HC5100: GPRS/WiFi™ dual-mode transceiver IC
  HC7100: GPRS/WiFi™ system-in-package silicon-centric module

The PolyRadio roadmap encompasses multi-mode combinations of more wireless standards, such as 802.11a and UMTS. Helic currently markets its designs in the form of Intellectual Property (IP). The following RF cells are also available as stand-alone IP blocks: 

  HIP1121 - Triple-mode 2.5G/3G/WiFi SiGe BiCMOS LNA
  HIP1210 - SiGe BiCMOS 1.7-2.5 GHz T/R switch ("TR lite")
  HIP1221 - SiGe BiCMOS 2.4GHz WiFi Power Amplifier
  HIP1320 - Dual-mode GSM-GPRS/WiFi SiGe BiCMOS VCOs and I/Q Prescaler
  HIP1410 - Dual-mode GSM-GPRS/WiFi Baseband Low-Pass Filters and VGAs
