Fairchild Semiconductor�s (NYSE: FCS) single-bit, bi-directional
translator, FET plus driver module and the industry�s first
multiplexer were selected as top products in the power and logic
categories in the quarterly EETimes and eeProductCenter Ultimate
Products Survey. In the Power category, Fairchild�s FDMF6700, a
fully optimized and integrated FET plus driver power stage solution
in ultra-compact 6mm x 6mm MLP packaging, ranked four out of ten in
technical significance. This product targets space-constrained
applications such as small-form-factor desktops, media center PCs,
ultra-dense servers, blade servers, advanced gaming systems,
graphic cards, networking and telecom equipment and other DC-DC
applications. In the Logic and Programmable Logic category, two of
Fairchild�s products were chosen as best of the best, the FXLH1T45
and the FSSD06. The FXLH1T45, a single-bit, bi-directional voltage
translator with guaranteed operation from 1.1V to 3.6V, was ranked
three out of ten products. This translator offers both
uni-directional and bi-directional translation between a variety of
voltage levels and provides a needed interface between processors
to electronic subsystems. Since this device operates down to 1.1V,
it is ideal for the low-power requirements of portable
applications. The FSSD06, the industry�s first multiplexer
supporting high voltage and dual voltage secure digital (SD)/secure
digital I/O (SDIO) and multimedia cards, was ranked nine out of ten
in technical significance. Beyond expanding SD/SDIO/MMC capability
in multi-functional portable designs, this secure data, two-port
multiplexer enables a 1.8V host processor to interface with
high-voltage and dual-voltage cards, providing seamless,
bi-directional communication while consuming only 1�A of battery
power. The Ultimate Products award is a product peer-review program
developed by EE Times and eeProductCenter. Each quarter the editors
of eeProductCenter select the ten most significant new products in
seven categories, and qualified readers are asked to score the
products in terms of technical significance and usability. About
