The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 1394 working group behind the development of FireWire in both its 400Mbps and 800Mbps configurations has formally approved the ...

FireWire, i.Link, IEEE-1394 -- whatever you like to call it, the high-speed data transfer interface is getting a boost. What's also cool is that both S1600 and S3200 interfaces will be compatible with ...

The SW3160 FirePHY-1600 is said to be the industry’s first IEEE 1394b FireWire S1600 PHY chip. The 2-GHz clock speed IC targets data transfer rates up to 1.6 Gbits/s, The IC supports 45 W power over ...

Virtually all but the most basic Personal Computers produced today are now able to support 800 Megabit/second (S800) 1394b hosts and devices.Early commercial 1.6 Gigabit/second (S1600) 1394b host ...

In today's news, the IEEE has approved the new FireWire 2008 specification, which will include the S1600 and S3200 standards, running at 1.6Gbps and 3.2Gbps each. The new IEEE 1394 standards will use ...

Semiconductor maker Symwave is demonstrating FirePHY-1600, which increases the data transfer speed of FireWire to 1.6 gigabits per second (Gbps), twice as fast as the FireWire interfaces found on ...
