Frontier Silicon announced the initiation of a $10m investment in a new advanced chip for digital radios.
According to Frontier, the technology, known as Chorus 3, has been designed to ease the migration to DAB digital radio over the course of the next decade.
The investment follows last week’s Digital Britain report in which the government endorsed its commitment to DAB as the primary network for future radio broadcasting.
Frontier says that the chip is the first of its kind to support all types of DAB radio and anticipated that it will be shipping to receiver manufacturers by early 2010.
Anthony Sethill, Frontier’s chief executive, said: “The cost structure and performance of this new DAB chip will assist the government’s aim to achieve the nexessary criteria for a digital migration of radio by 2015. We now look forward to harnessing the success of this advanced DAB technology as we develop a concrete digital migration plan with the digital radio delivery group.”
