San Jose, CA and Dresden, Germany (August 30, 2002) - Systemonic, a leading developer of complete silicon system solutions for the global wireless communications market, demonstrated their Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) silicon solution on the Agilent 93000 SOC Series at Semicon West 2002 in San Jose, California.

On the event floor, Systemonic's Tondelayo(tm) dual-band, 802.11a+b WLAN silicon solution was tested throughout the three day show at the Agilent Technology booth and recorded superior Error Vector Magnitude (EVM) for 54Mbps, the maximum data rate specified in the 802.11a standard. Agilent recently introduced new enhancements on the 93000 RF Measurement Suite that enable customers to perform complex modulation measurements on radio frequency integrated circuits (RFICs) for WLAN standards.

"The Agilent 93000 RF Measurement Suite EVM transmit and receive measurements provide true performance verification, guaranteeing our silicon system meets our stringent quality requirements. EVM also eliminates the need for many other RF tests, therefore providing faster test times and slashing our cost of test. The excellent correlation to bench of the RF Measurement Suite enables us to get to market faster," said Ruediger Stroh, Systemonic CEO.

"Systemonic is recognized for their leading position in 802.11a+b technology. The Agilent 93000 enables them to provide quality ICs at a competitive price, thus further extending their lead in the WLAN market." said Tom Newsom, vice president and general manager, SOC Business Unit, Agilent Technologies.
