Broadcom Corporation announced a new second generation mobile Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) processor designed specifically for Wi-Fi phones that feature advanced multimedia and telephony capabilities. This single-chip VoIP processor enables a compelling new class of multimedia voice and video applications such as video streaming, digital cameras, video conferencing and data connectivity, all not available from the typical cordless phones used in homes today. Home entertainment products are evolving to embrace the new digital revolution. Radios, portable tape players, VCRs and TV sets are now being replaced with MP3 players, CD players, DVD players and HDTV sets. Announced today is the Broadcom BCM1161, a second generation mobile VoIP processor that focuses on low-power and advanced multimedia and telephony functions. The BCM1161's advanced multimedia features include polyphonic ring-tone support, a 2 Megapixel digital camera, voice record/playback and video clips record/playback. A variety of telephony features are also supported by the BCM1161 including 3-way conferencing and speaker phone support, and high-fidelity voice capabilities through the use of Broadcom's BroadVoice technology. The new single-chip integrates an ARM9-based CPU, analog voice codec with a direct microphone and high-output speaker interface, 262k color LCD display interface and a USB 2.0 interface.
