This Week we are spotlighting C&K Systems' SpreadNet -- They have some interesting
900 MHz SS Products! Editor's Note 6/15/05: in 2001, C&K was renamed IntelliSense and is now a part of Honeywell. For

Last Week we spotlighted Tetherless Access Limited -- They are Selling and Installing WLANs

Previously we Spotlighted GRAN-JANSEN AS, we were impressed with their Single Chip Frequency
Hop Transceiver IC. In early 2001, GRAN-JANSEN changed its name to BlueChip Communication AS.
They are a leading manufacturer of
singlechip transceivers suited for LPR-applications. The company also released its latest
range of ultra low-power transceivers specially designed to make battery operated equipment
wireless. The transceiver chips are supplied together with optimized reference designs and
software for interfacing to host applications. BlueChip's latest development, a one square
inch shielded RF module that can be surface mounted, is also available as part of an evaluation
kit, and provides the quickest route to a complete LPR design. For customers having specific
requirements, BlueChip may also deliver customized chips and solutions
Editor's Note 6/15/05: BlueChip Communication was acquired by Micrel Semiconductor Inc.
in late 2001 and is now Micrel’s Center of Competence for RadioWire products. They are
responsible for product development and sales/marketing support. You can visit Micrel's
