January 31st, 2008 by Dave

Computer users nowadays want faster and more efficient gadgets because they are always on the go and trying to beat the deadlines no matter which part of the globe they are in. And in order to meet this demand, other people and companies are already trying to create a chipset that would be able to cope up with a fast-paced life of a person. That drive to achieve and be able to develop something better pushes people to their limits in inventing things that enables man to live an easier life.

Through the patience and careful planning of Marvell, a semiconductor maker was able to design and create a chipset far better than the others in terms of speed and distance range. This chipset is faster than the current chipsets in the market. The TopDog wireless 802.11n chipsets utilize three receivers and three transmitters. With this new ingenuity, the said chipset is able to reach speeds up to 450 Megabits per second (Mbps) at maximum. That’s an additional speed of 380 Mbps when compared to WiMax’s 70 Mbps chipset.

And with WiFi booming, people are looking for means of getting faster connections. Having faster connections means getting the job done easily and when the job is finished, people can jump and work on something else. Constantly, this search has made man more meticulous in choosing the right devices that would suit their needs. They sometimes stumble upon gadgets that really don’t meet their standards but they have to make do with what is already out.

With this breakthrough, other semiconductor manufacturers would have a hard time toppling off this latest thing on the technology ladder. In addition to its speed, the chipset is said to be able to increase the signal range by 160 percent. Moreover, the TopDog wireless chipset can provide 500% wireless range.

That gives users a better chance of being able to connect to the internet without having trouble finding a signal. And because of its speed, users are now able to access websites and exchange data without waiting too long for the information to be sent. These innovations are vital for the growth of the world’s technology. And with the constant release of new gadgets such as these, perhaps it will not take long for the world to become a paperless society.

The chipset is the first of its kind thus setting a higher standard for the other companies on the same field. Though this chipset has not yet been released in the market, it is scheduled to be ready for mass shipment on the second quarter of this year.
