Wrong! A powerful new National analog technology called LVDS (for Low Voltage Differential Signaling) transmits up to 5.4 gigabits of data per second using only milliwatts of power. And it moves this torrent of information over wires thin enough to hide in the hinge of a notebook computer. Or, it can use standard low-cost computer cables to feed lifelike images and graphics into super-high-resolution monitors, eliminating the cost and complexity of shielded coaxial cables. LVDS chips are at the heart of the Internet, driving the routers, hubs and switches that carry everything from downloadable music to real-time video. National's LVDS chips are also used in digital copiers and laser printers. In the future, every time you make a cellular call, it is likely to travel through a third-generation wireless base station containing up to $2000 worth of LVDS chips. National is a leader in LVDS technologies, and our standard LVDS products command a 70 percent share of the market.
