AMIMON's Second Generation Wireless 1080p Chipset Now Available

SANTA CLARA, CA, Apr 29 (MARKET WIRE) --
AMIMON Inc., the market leader in wireless HD semiconductor solutions,
announced today the immediate availability of its second generation
baseband chipset. The second generation transmitter and receiver chips
(AMN 2120/2220) are designed for the WHDI(TM) (Wireless Home Digital
Interface(TM)) standard and are the first chipset capable of wirelessly
delivering full uncompressed 1080p/60Hz HD content throughout the entire
home.

The second generation chipset is based on the revolutionary video modem
technology operating in the 5GHz unlicensed band, pioneered by AMIMON and
the backbone of WHDI. The robustness of AMIMON's video modem technology
has been proven in consumers' homes with AMIMON's first generation
chipset which was integrated into wireless HDTV products from leading TV
manufacturers. The second generation chipset offers significant
enhancements both in quality and in feature-set.

Key features of AMIMON's AMN 2120/2220 include:

-- Designed for the WHDI standard

-- HD video: 1080p/60Hz & high quality computer graphics; equivalent
video rates up to 3Gbps

-- Range: multi-room - beyond 100 feet (30 meters) through walls

-- Latency: less than 1 millisecond

-- Hollywood approved HDCP 2.0 copy protection

-- Low power consumption modes for portable devices

-- Low cost - mass adoption price points

-- 5GHz unlicensed band with support for Dynamic Frequency Selection (DFS)

The second generation chipset provides CE manufacturers with a low cost HD
wireless connectivity solution. The chipset is built on a programmable
platform that can be tuned for conformance with the WHDI standard
specification. The chipset interfaces directly with the video I/O's,
saving the cost of any additional components such as CODEC chips, memory
buffers and controls.

The AMN 2120/2220 chipset can be embedded into CE devices such as LCD and
plasma HDTVs, multimedia projectors, A/V receivers, Blu-ray DVD players,
set-top boxes (STBs), game consoles, computers, DVRs, PCs and HD video
accessories/dongles, allowing wireless streaming of uncompressed HD video
and audio.

The WHDI standard, promoted by the top CE manufacturers is the only
standard to enable whole home, wireless uncompressed HDTV connectivity.

"The first generation chipsets received considerable interest, as AMIMON
sold over 100,000 chipsets in 2008 and we expect increased demand for the
second generation chipsets," said Noam Geri, vice president of marketing
and business development for AMIMON. "AMIMON's first generation chipset
made wireless HDTV in the home a reality; the second generation WHDI
chipset will make mass-market, interoperable standard-based wireless
connectivity in every home a reality."

"Among home entertainment enthusiasts 1080p HDTVs are in high demand and
ease of use technologies, such as a wireless interface alternative, are
expected to see increasing demand from consumers," said Randy Lawson,
Senior Analyst, Digital TV Semiconductor and Display Drivers for iSuppli.
"AMIMON's technology provides an effective solution to meet the growing
consumer, as well as OEM, desire for ease of use features while
maintaining the high quality 1080p."

AMIMON's second generation chipsets and reference designs are available
now. AMN2120 and AMN2220 interface directly to AMIMON RF transceivers
AMN3110 and AMN3210 respectively. Pricing for production quantities of the
WHDI transmitter chipset AMN 2120/3110 is $20 and of the WHDI receiver
chipset AMN 2220/3210 is $25. Companies, engineers and developers
