Sagem My700x Mobile Phone (http://rbi.ims.ca/4930-515). RF technology in the Sagem cell phone includes GSM, General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) and Enhanced Data Rates for GSM Evolution (EDGE). EDGE wireless technology allows the mobile downloading of video and music clips, full multimedia messaging, high-speed color Internet access and e-mail at rates up to 220 Kbits/sec. Sagem engineers chose Freescale Semiconductor's RFX275-20, a quad-band Class 12 GSM/GPRS/EDGE transceiver and front-end power amplifier module for its high level of integration. The IC's 250 mm 2 footprint provides antenna-to-bits functionality for all three RF formats. For more information about Freescale Semiconductor's EDGE RF Subsystem, go tohttp://rbi.ims.ca/4930-516.

Thanks to embedded electronics, medical devices are getting smaller and smarter than ever. Pacemakers and implantable defibrillators are now able to call physicians. MRIs, CT scanners, and ultrasound machines are gaining mobility. And the venerable Band-Aid may soon be able to detect illnesses ranging from fevers to heart arrhythmias. On February 21, join Design News senior editor Charles Murray for a wide-ranging discussion, "Embedded Angles for Medical Products," which will explore the latest developments in medical electronics. The discussion will examine advances in medical device technology and offer an inside look at the embedded electronics behind it.
