Silicon Image reveals what it claims is the first single-chip, ultra-low power 60HGz WirelessHD solution for mobile devices-- the UltraGig 6400 transmitter.
Unlike wifi-based options (such as AirPlay, DLNA or Miracast), the UltraGig 6400 should allow wireless 1080p video transmission with 5ms latency, combining 64GHz RF transceiver, baseband processor and embedded antenna array in a single IC package.
The company says the transmitter consumes around 500mW of power (with a 9m line-of-sight range). It not yet in mass production, but is in sampling to mobile device makers.
According to ABI Research 60GHz technology is set to hit the mass market in the near future, particularly as more mobile devices start embracing the technology.
