Public Safety Agencies to Benefit from AT&T and Harris Corporation Alliance to Deliver Next-generation LTE Solutions

DALLAS and MELBOURNE, Fla., Oct. 24, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- AT&T* and Harris Corporation (NYSE: HRS) are forming an alliance to develop and deliver next generation LTE wireless solutions for agencies and first responders whose lifesaving efforts depend on timely access to critical information.

Together, AT&T and Harris are exploring opportunities to provide first responders with broadband and mission critical communications systems that will enable high-speed video and data solutions. Users would benefit from network agility that delivers highly-secure, highly-reliable connectivity where and when they need it.

AT&T and Harris would bring extensive experience supporting public safety and government customers, as well as expertise in broadband and mission critical network construction and integration, interoperable device manufacturing, and network service management. As a result of this alliance, public safety agencies would benefit from:

    --  A unified experience driven by integration of  broadband and narrowband
        Land Mobile Radio (LMR) networks
    --  Multiple business models to fit agencies' needs and resources - from
        complete end-to-end network solutions to a subscriber-based model
    --  Seamless roaming and nationwide interoperability using AT&T's 4G network
        when outside the public safety LTE network coverage area
    --  A broader portfolio of wireless devices and applications designed for
        both commercial and public safety broadband networks

"This alliance is a first step toward making next-generation technology and services available to agencies who seek competitive options," said Chris Hill, AT&T Vice President of Advanced Business Solutions. "It's the beginning of a public safety ecosystem of open devices and applications interoperable with private broadband networks, as they become available."

"Harris has extensive experience in mission-critical communications, and a legacy of bringing new technology, such as LTE to public safety and government customers," said Steve Marschilok, President of Harris Public Safety and Professional Communications. "This alliance will look to expand the choices for a growing set of solutions that can be deployed to create an advanced, mission-critical broadband experience for public safety."

Today's announcement is evidence of AT&T and Harris Corp.'s longstanding support to create a national interoperable public safety network that would allow public safety agencies more cohesive voice and data communications both during emergencies and day-to-day operations.

4G LTE technology provides several benefits, including faster speeds and lower latency for delivering mission critical information. With future public safety LTE solutions, emergency dispatches could include a live video feed from traffic cameras to help first responders assess the situation en route and could enable mounted police officers to quickly retrieve a suspect's information from a national database, using a tablet. The combined offerings of Harris and AT&T could further extend interoperability across existing narrowband public safety LMR networks to private public safety and public broadband networks.

As public safety agencies continue to adapt to communities that increasingly are going mobile, and confront challenges where actionable communications can improve situational awareness, the companies plan to work together to explore opportunities to deliver a set of solutions that include:

    --  Handheld, vehicle-mounted and peripheral LTE-compatible devices
    --  Mission-critical broadband applications
    --  Seamless access to both private and public networks for public safety
        agencies
    --  Network management, applications and support systems
    --  Integrated Broadband/Project 25 infrastructure and devices

Arguably the most versatile camera in the world thanks to its innovative mounting system, renowned durability and small form factor, the HD HERO2 surpasses its predecessor with several technology upgrades. The HD HERO2's new processor delivers twice the processing power, taking full advantage of a new high performance 11 megapixel sensor that delivers more than twice the image detail along with professional low light performance. A totally redesigned wide-angle lens was required to take full advantage of the HD HERO2's increased image-processing, resulting in a lens that's twice as sharp as the previous model. And with the arrival of GoPro's new Wi-Fi BacPac(TM) and Wi-Fi Remote products slated for release this winter, the HD HERO2 will enable video remote control via the Wi-Fi Remote, smartphones and devices, tablets and computers as well as enabling live GoPro video broadcast from anywhere there is Wi-Fi or a mobile hotspot.

Famous for its globally best-selling HD HERO line of wearable and gear mountable cameras, GoPro spared no expense developing the HD HERO2.

"GoPro created a new category of camera with the HD HERO back in 2009, and it's gone on to become one of the best selling video cameras in the world," says Nicholas Woodman, GoPro's founder and CEO. "With these big shoes to fill, we invested massively in engineering the HD HERO2 to be one of the greatest, most versatile cameras of all time. We think we've achieved our goal and we're very excited to see the content our customers around the world capture and share with their powerful new GoPros."

Trend Micro Tackles Data Protection and Consumerization Needs with Integrated OfficeScan Release

Streamlines the growing complexities of threat protection, data loss prevention, and device management.

CUPERTINO, Calif., Oct. 24, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Trend Micro Inc. (TYO: 4704;TSE: 4704) today announced enhancements to its OfficeScan, Mobile Security and Data Protection solutions, which includes the ability to integrate management of security, data protection, and mobile management. This allows IT organizations to reduce the costs and complexity required to protect their users, data and computing assets.

While businesses have worked diligently to reduce incoming IT threats in recent years, they have struggled to keep up with emerging 'multi-faceted' security concerns related to data loss, virtualization, cloud migration, mobile device management and consumerization. A recent Trend Micro study shows that IT departments serving more than 200 users have added security point solutions at an alarming rate - in some cases they have a dozen types of software, each with a different directory, administration console and server.

"We have quickly found ourselves in a situation where IT organizations must consolidate their security solutions, or risk errors and solution gaps due to this added complexity," said Ron Clarkson, Trend Micro's senior director, endpoint business. "The good news is, Trend Micro has anticipated this situation and provides a reliable way out of it."

Helping Companies Efficiently Navigate Today's Top Emerging Security Concerns

Trend Micro's new software releases provide businesses with a sensible consolidation path based on its award-winning Trend Micro(TM) OfficeScan(TM) endpoint security framework. They can now benefit from a single client and management infrastructure, single vendor source for software updates and upgrades, and the enhanced ability to correlate threat intelligence across the network for greater visibility and control. Below are details of the new solution updates from Trend Micro organized by the security initiatives which they support:

Data Loss Prevention. Trend Micro OfficeScan 10.6 includes an optional data loss prevention (DLP) plug-in that enables customers to deploy endpoint DLP in minutes rather than months, resulting in quick wins on corporate data security objectives.  This helps organizations avoid costly fines and data breaches by ensuring that sensitive data is handled properly.

Consumerization of IT. Trend Micro(TM) Mobile Security 7.1 adds support for Apple iPad and iPhone, as well as Android and Blackberry devices, with an expanded set of mobile device management capabilities, all integrated within the OfficeScan management environment.  Trend Micro Mobile Security 7.1 helps organizations overcome their security, data protection and support risks so they can realize the increased productivity, business agility, customer and employee satisfaction that the consumerization of IT can bring.

Endpoint Encryption. Trend Micro(TM) Endpoint Encryption 3.1 provides strong encryption for any device that may carry sensitive corporate data including laptops, USB drives and removable media.  Real-time auditing capabilities support "evidence of control" requirements during audits and following a data breach.  In addition, Trend Micro Endpoint Encryption's advanced pre-boot authentication provides the highest level of security to encrypted devices.

Trend Micro Endpoint Encryption 3.1, Trend Micro Mobile Security 7.1, and OfficeScan 10.6 are available today. Contact your Trend Micro sales representative or authorized reseller for pricing and purchasing.

Supporting Quotes

"As a critical arm of the Kuwaiti government, the Ministry of Health is tasked with keeping the nation healthy. The IT infrastructure of the ministry is amongst the best in the region and Trend Micro's OfficeScan 10.6 is crucial to our security," said Hussain Eidan, Operation Manager, Information Systems Dep't, Ministry of Health, Government of Kuwait.

"We have found Trend Micro's OfficeScan 10.6 to be an excellent and very dependable product and we are already live across over 30 remote locations. The new plug-in manager offers more and enhanced features along with the new simple widgets for better control and accessibility. More importantly for us, the performance and scanning is even faster than 10.5. This means less resource utilization and ease of operation. The useful integrated Data Loss Prevention (DLP) module in OSCE now allows full data protection as well Anti-Malware protection, all within one simple product," added Hussain Eidan.

"As a school district, we have to be aware of how our data is being handled," said Michael Clark, Director of IT, Battle Ground School District. "Right now, we are monitoring what types of information employees are sending out. Trend Micro(TM) Enterprise Security for Endpoints, with the new DLP plug-in, can help us with our monitoring efforts and therefore improve our understanding and visibility about data movement in our environment. Then we can continue to evolve our internal standards and policies, and take advantage of Trend Micro data protection features as we phase in tighter controls."

UFED CHINEX also has the capabilities to recover deleted data from the Chinese mobile phones and enables access to valuable data such as contacts, SMS, MMS, emails and multimedia content.

The solution provides concise reports for use in a courtroom or during evidentiary/investigational proceedings. Critical reference information, such as time and date of extraction, logo and department case number, may also be included. 

Available as an add-on to the Cellebrite UFED Ultimate, UFED CHINEX is a field-ready, user friendly connectivity kit. UFED CHINEX covers a wide range of Chinese devices that are being added to the extensive range of mobile and GPS devices already supported by the UFED.

Ron Serber, Cellebrite's Co-CEO commented: "Increasingly Chinese mobile phones have been introduced to the worldwide market, but due to the differences in operating systems it has been a challenge for agencies across the globe to extract and analyze the internal data. With these enhanced capabilities added to the UFED product set, we have enabled law enforcement agencies across the world to support mobile forensic capabilities to a greater number of devices and ultimately staying one step ahead of the game in detecting and analyzing crucial data for use in criminal cases."

UFED CHINEX will be available in November 2011. To learn more, visit: http://www.cellebrite.com/forensic-products/forensic-products/ufed-chinex.html.

The Addition of Salesforce Chatter(TM) and SugarSync Along With Evernote and Google Docs(TM) Support

Enables Users to Store, Share and Access Documents Anywhere, Anytime

SUNNYVALE, Calif., Oct. 24, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Fujitsu, the market leader in document imaging scanners, today announced new capabilities for sending scanned paperwork to the Apple® iPad and iPhone, in addition to new functionality allowing users to upload scanned documents to a wide range of cloud-based services using its ScanSnap S1500, S1500M, S1300 and S1100.

With the launch of its first official app for both the iPad and iPhone -- "ScanSnap Connect" -- consumers have a convenient way to send and store their scans to their mobile device, and organizations have a flexible solution to assist with collaboration between colleagues and business partners.

Furthermore, ScanSnap now enables users to scan documents directly to Salesforce Chatter(TM) and SugarSync, in addition to the scanner's cloud services support for Evernote and Google Docs(TM), giving users even more flexibility to store, share and access their paperwork. Whether it is scanning contracts, receipts, bills, invoices, or business cards on the road or using a PC in one place and a Mac in another, consumers have the necessary tools to be even more productive and paperless virtually anywhere.

"Today, everything is mobile, connected, interactive and immediate, which is helping shape consumer behavior and drive cloud computing," said Michael Sidejas, product marketing manager, Fujitsu Computer Products of America, Inc. "We've taken pride in our ability to quickly evolve ScanSnap's capabilities and add new features that no other document management company offers today to provide consumers and business professionals the most productive, versatile scanning experience."

New Solutions for a Paperless Lifestyle

The ScanSnap S1500, S1500M, S1300 and S1100 are all capable of supporting the new enhancements and current users can update their existing software using the built-in online update feature accessible from the ScanSnap icon help menu that resides in the task tray or dock. Detailed instructions can also be found here: http://scanners.fcpa.fujitsu.com/ss_enhancements/.

Additionally, ScanSnap Connect can be downloaded to the iPhone or iPad through the iTunes App Store. Once updated, new "Scan-to" icons will appear on the Quick Menu providing operators additional flexibility in where to send their digital documents. Below is additional information on the services presently supported by ScanSnap S1500, S1500M, S1300 and S1100:

    --  Scan to Mobile: The new free app, ScanSnap Connect, is now available
        from the iTunes App Store for iPad and iPhone running iOS 4.2.1 or
        later. With Scan to Mobile on your Mac® or PC and ScanSnap Connect on
        your iPhone or iPad, you can now send scanned content directly to your
        mobile device using your WiFi connection.
    --  Scan to Salesforce Chatter: Scan various customer-related documents with
        ScanSnap and save the image data to the powerful online collaboration
        tool Salesforce Chatter. This function, when combined with CardMinder
        business card software for Windows, enables users to efficiently collect

        with SugarSync, one of today's premier online cloud storage services.

        computer or mobile device making it even easier to find your scanned
        paperwork.

iContact Launches Social Media Product As Part of Digital Marketing Platform

Businesses Can Now Perform Social Media Marketing, Scheduling, and Analytics Along with Email Marketing from the Same Application

RALEIGH, N.C., Oct. 24, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- iContact, a leading email and social media marketing company, today launched its new social media marketing product. iContact empowers businesses to perform their social media and email marketing within a single all-in-one digital marketing platform. From this single product, businesses can now directly publish, schedule, and track their social media marketing efforts on Facebook and Twitter either as stand alone campaigns or integrated with their email marketing campaigns.

(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20110413/CL82281LOGO-b )

According to the 2011 Social Media Marketing Industry Report, 88 percent of marketers view social media as a key component for increasing brand exposure and reach. iContact allows businesses to capitalize on this opportunity by integrating social media channels into existing email marketing campaigns and disseminating social media messages through Facebook or Twitter.

"Social networks continue to grow and transform business communications, yet businesses have lacked the insight and capabilities to utilize these channels to their full potential," said Jeff Revoy, chief product and marketing officer at iContact. "iContact's new social media marketing solution provides valuable insight into which channels, content and messages resonate most with key audiences. We are providing the foundation for businesses to have more meaningful social media interactions with their customers and constituents."

"We post to our Facebook and Twitter accounts almost daily to share insightful articles, tips and other industry news," said Lauren Watral, geriatric care manager at Raleigh Geriatric Care Management, an iContact customer. "iContact provides a robust platform where we can efficiently manage our social media and email marketing needs in one location, saving us valuable time and resources and providing the tools we need to succeed."

Through iContact's social analytics engine, users can measure the reach of their social media posts including the number of "Likes," "Comments" and "Retweets."  Using Facebook and Twitter's API, iContact pulls tracking information about each Facebook or Twitter account and any posted messages. The iContact social media marketing product set includes:

    --  Social Publishing - Customers won't have to log into Facebook or Twitter
        to conduct multi-channel marketing campaigns. It can all be done through
        iContact quickly and easily through a friendly user interface mirroring
        Facebook and Twitter.

    --  Social Analytics - Customers view more detailed tracking information and
        reports, beyond what is currently provided by Facebook and Twitter, in
        order to better measure the impact of their social media marketing
        efforts. In real-time, users can view the number of Fans for each page
        within a Facebook account or followers with Twitter. Once content is
        shared, they can access the total number of "Likes," "Comments" and
        "Clicks" through Facebook and the number of "Retweets" via Twitter.

    --  Social Scheduling - iContact users can log in and input all of their
        social media posts at one time and schedule them to publish at a
        specified future date. Users can also save posts as drafts, enabling
        review prior to posting.

While many small- and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) view social media as an important marketing tool, they are often challenged with limited resources to execute campaigns, or don't have the tracking and analytics capabilities to show the true value of social media marketing.  iContact engaged further with SMBs to start a conversation on the challenges they experience in using social media.  The company will publish results of an SMB social media survey and continue the conversation on social media with a special video contest to be announced Oct. 25, 2011.

iContact social media marketing solution is available immediately. For more information, please visit http://www.icontact.com.

TRX® Takes Aggressive Action to Protect Consumers Against Illegal Knock-Off Products

Safety & Authenticity at Forefront of New Packaging Strategy To Help Customers Verify Use of Genuine TRX Product

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 24, 2011 /PRNewswire/ --TRX®, the creators of Suspension Training® bodyweight exercise, today introduced an authentication campaign designed to prevent counterfeiting and piracy efforts around its popular fitness products, beginning with the TRX  FORCE®  Kit: Tactical. To combat the increasing amount of counterfeit TRX products being sold illegally, the company has placed a hologram hidden under the TRX badge and on the product's packaging, including information that encourages customers to authenticate and register their TRX products. While holograms have been utilized by TRX on products previously, the full authentication campaign will begin with the launch of the TRX FORCE® Kit: Tactical.

The authentication program is designed to alert customers of the potential safety hazards associated with knock-off products that aren't designed or manufactured according to the stringent and recognized safety standards maintained by TRX. Additionally, it provides customers an added measure to verify the authenticity of their TRX products. To verify an original TRX product, customers simply locate the serial number on the genuine TRX hologram, log on to http://www.trxtraining.com/activate and register the product. The registration process will validate the serial number, activate warranty and also allow customers to download free content. 

"As the creators of Suspension Training, we have assumed the leadership position in protecting the integrity of our proprietary products to ensure that consumers are provided products that maintain the highest standards of safety, performance and value," said Randy Hetrick, CEO and Founder of TRX. "Not only does piracy threaten the integrity of the TRX brand and our products, but more importantly, it threatens consumers who are misled and ripped off by inferior and often dangerous products that can ultimately result in injuries." 

Safety is a primary goal of the authentication campaign. Counterfeit products do not hold up to the safety standards of TRX products. TRX is committed to producing only best-in-class products, rigorously tested and constructed to withstand intensive daily use by thousands of TRX users. For this reason, top health clubs, elite trainers, professional athletes, U.S. Military and mainstream consumers trust and use TRX equipment, making it the leading suspension training product on the market today.

All TRX products go through a rigorous process to ensure its durability and quality. This approach to quality control ensures that TRX products exceed even the most stringent military specifications. TRX builds quality and durability into its designs. The use of industrial strength materials, redundant stitching and other fail-safe features create a strong and safe product that cannot be duplicated by copycats or counterfeiters. Extensive tests are performed on the materials and components used in TRX products, which must meet touch quality standards and specifications. This approach to quality control ensures that TRX products meet and exceed the most stringent quality and safety specifications.

In addition to superiority in quality of construction and safety, TRX products offer superior value through industry-leading programming. While false and illegal purveyors of TRX Suspension Trainers may advertise their products as authentic, knock-off vendors cannot match the extensive programming and education that only TRX provides. After breaking new ground by creating the Suspension Training exercises, TRX went a step further in developing a wealth of programming and education, designed to provide an ever-increasing level of value for TRX customers. To date, TRX has trained more than 30,000 fitness professionals and coaches across 40 countries through its accredited, comprehensive Suspension Training Courses. These professional education courses are officially recognized by the leading certification organizations in the fitness industry. In addition, United States Department of Defense purchased 24,000 TRX Suspension Trainers, which were distributed to deploying U.S. Military brigades and battalions.

Additionally, TRX is taking an aggressive legal approach to impede the sale of pirated products.  Over the past year, the company has legally reclaimed ownership of more than 100 domain names that were used by cybersquatters to sell counterfeit versions of its products. At the same time, TRX has successfully delisted nearly 7,000 products from sites such as eBay, and a large number of counterfeit listings from similar sites around the globe. 

TRX employs a devoted anti-piracy team that scours websites on a daily basis, and works with Google and other sites to identify and take down counterfeit listings and advertising campaigns. Similarly, TRX has working relationships with U.S. Customs, as well as Customs in some of its key markets including China, United Kingdom, Italy and more, to help identify and confiscate counterfeit shipments.

About TRX®

TRX® is the world's preeminent producer of physical training equipment, exercise programming and education designed for trainers, health clubs, military users, fitness-minded consumers and athletes of all levels. TRX®  designs and sells original products of innovative design and premium quality construction, including Suspension Training® and Rip(TM) Training equipment and exercise programs that are changing the way athletes train for sport, soldiers train for combat, physical therapists rehabilitate patients and exercise instructors train their clients.  The complete line of TRX® products, training programs, education and accessories can be purchased directly from TRX® online at http://www.trxtraining.com.  For more information on TRX® products, education and programming, call (888) 878-5348 or email info@trxtraining.com.

AppTech Corp to Launch NBA Star Leandro Barbosa's Brazilian Blur Live! TV Apps

BOCA RATON, Fla., Oct. 24, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- AppTech Corp (Pink Sheets: APCX) has reached an agreement to launch its Livecam Platform, a live video, webcasting solution for mobile phones in partnership with Leandro Barbosa, a Brazilianbasketball player, who plays at the guard position with Flamengo Basketball in Brazil. He is also under contract with the NBA'sToronto Raptors and is expected to return to that team once the 2011 NBA lockout ends. In Brazil he is nicknamed "Leandrinho" (Little Leandro), and in the USA and Canada he is nicknamed "The Brazilian Blur", referring to the fact that he is one of the fastest players in the NBA.

(Photo:  http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20111024/DA91664)

AppTech Corp's Livecam Platform powers the apps which celebrities can use to stream live video from their smartphones to millions of fans worldwide who follow them on social networks, web and mobile. The company's focus is to increase the availability of such rich content to include internationally renowned soccer and UFC stars, actors, models, and musicians, also known as "lifecasting". It is a means to bring "reality tv" as it happens in their lives to their fan base.  In most cases the financial worth of celebrities increases as they get more exposure to their fan base.  AppTech Corp's technology will open a whole new world of exposure to celebrities. Comments Elias Rocha, AppTech's newly designated CEO:  "It is a win-win relationship for celebrities and AppTech.  The celebrity increases their market value and AppTech earns high margin revenue."

The AppTech Livecam Platform is a native code Android video and interactivity platform for originating live video streams with simultaneous audio and text communications in real time.  Video is encoded in H.264 and broadcast live, in real time, to our cloud-based servers which distribute the content to large audiences. Elias Rocha adds:  "Our new app platform features hardware acceleration techniques developed to optimize the processing power, memory and battery consumption on Android smartphones, making it unique because devices become faster and more efficient than the competitive 'record and share video from mobile' apps currently available.  We are prepared to handle large traffic volumes, motivated by the tremendous international notoriety of our content originators. Moreover, AppTech now has the firm potential to generate significant cash flows because our platform provides full advertising support and in-app purchases."

The Brazilian Blur Live! TV service will be available on the web via Twitter, iPhones, iPads and Android phones and tablet computers. The contract with AppTech Corp to provide service is a two year exclusive agreement. 

Leandro Barbosa says, "I can't wait to start broadcasting live from wherever I am and show fans worldwide my day to day activities from Brazil or anywhere else. I love being in touch with my fans and it doesn't get much better than live video on your cell phone. What a great concept."

FilmFunds Strengthens Effort to Reshape How Hollywood Takes Films to Market With New High-Tech Tools and Production Arm

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 24, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Encouraging a growing online community of filmmakers and fans to embrace a better way to make and market films, FilmFunds introduced a slate of new website tools today, augmenting its already game-changing technologies such as real-time Emotional ID (EID) and image recognition.  Concurrently, the company debuted a production arm to more actively facilitate fan-favorite projects.  FilmFunds, which launched last month, empowers a social community of 60+ million entertainment fans to be part of the green-light process in moving popular film concepts toward reality.

That process begins with content owners/creators uploading materials (e.g., synopses, trailers, artwork) to the website (http://www.FilmFunds.com) under one of two groups: Category I (projects not yet in production) or Category II (projects already in production, or completed, that require finishing, P&A or other funds).  In the spirit of its piggybank icon, FilmFunds members who "Like" a potential project can then click the icon to give it an "Oink!," with a critical mass of "Oinks!" forecasting an audience for it down the road.

New website features include:

For filmmakers:

    --  New Rewards System - Enhancing the way that FilmFunds connects content
        creators with fans, filmmakers can now offer specific rewards for the
        most active and supportive fans: from set visits and signed scripts all
        the way up to executive producer credits on a project

    --  Redesigned Upload - Uploading a project to FilmFunds has been redesigned
        and streamlined, making the process faster than a greased pig at a
        county fair

    --  FilmFunds Talent - Now actors and actresses can connect with fans and
        filmmakers, with a new category for uploading headshots, bios/resumes
        and performance reels

    --  Social Media Calendar - A unique, customizable tool designed to simplify
        the social networking process. Now filmmakers can quickly and easily
        create timely news updates and keep connected with their fans through
        social media channels.

For film fans:

    --  PiggyPoints - Every activity and level of engagement on FilmFunds is now
        rewarded!  Users can earn PiggyPoints, for example, by discovering and

Atmel Reduces Total System Cost by Integrating LCD Controller into Popular AVR XMEGA Family

Leader in MCUs adds LCD controller and USB to provide designers with a flexible, ultra-low power, high- performance solution for home automation, metering and industrial applications

New $29 easy-to-use evaluation kit accelerates development time

SAN JOSE, Calif., Oct. 24, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Atmel® Corporation (NASDAQ: ATML), a leader in microcontroller and touch solutions, today announced it is adding an LCD controller to devices in the popular AVR® XMEGA® microcontroller (MCU) family. The integration of an LCD controller offers designers reduced design complexity and lower overall system cost, while providing ultra-low power consumption for applications including smart meters, home automation, power tools and other applications that require a user interface.

The integrated LCD controller in the AVR XMEGA family reduces the overall design complexity by integrating all the features required to run a segment in an LCD display. The devices also include an innovative SWAP mode that enables internal re-routing of the LCD signals and makes PCB design easier and less complex for developers. These AVR XMEGA microcontrollers utilize Atmel picoPower® technology, resulting in ultra-low power consumption. The new devices use less than a third of the current compared to existing megaAVR® LCD controllers, requiring only 3µA to run the LCD display in sleep mode. The integrated LCD controller supports up to 4x40 and 4x25 segments on the 100-pin and 64-pin AVR XMEGA microcontrollers, respectively. For designs that do not require all the LCD segments, up to 16 segment pins can be used as general-purpose I/O pins.

"Integration and lower system cost are key differentiators for MCU designers in a variety of applications," said Ingar Fredriksen, sr. director of AVR products, Atmel Corporation. "The new features in the latest AVR XMEGA devices address these needs by including an LCD controller and USB to offer designers a higher level of integration and reduced complexity, resulting in overall lower system cost. Several of the new devices also include two 12-bit analog-to-digital converters that can be synchronized, making the devices ideal for electricity metering and other high-precision applications."

The new AVR XMEGA family with integrated LCD and USB capabilities include all the same features of the existing AVR XMEGA family including high-precision 12-bit analog, real-time performance, and Atmel-patented ultra-low picoPower technology. The AVR XMEGA devices are also designed to enable a simple and intuitive migration between devices with identical peripheral modules and a linear address map. For more information about the AVR XMEGA family with integrated LCD, please visit: http://www.atmel.com/microsite/xmega_lcd.

Atmel AVR XMEGA Family

The Atmel AVR XMEGA family is the only 8/16-bit MCU in the market with DMA Controller and Event System. Peripherals and communication modules can utilize the DMA system to move data so the AVR XMEGA CPU has more idle time to save power or to perform other tasks. The innovative event system enables direct inter-peripheral signaling for short and 100% predictable response time without interrupt and CPU usage. Designers can now develop a solution with predictable real-time performance and data throughput even under a high system load. Other functions such as hardware AES and DES encryption and decryption ensure fast and low-power secure communication. Cryptography protects important intellectual software property during remote programming and firmware distribution. Atmel AVR XMEGA can also easily realize robust touch-sensing interfaces through the Atmel QTouch®  Library, enabling capacitive buttons, sliders, and wheels for user interfaces. For more information, visit http://www.atmel.com/xmega.

Pricing and Availability

The new Atmel AVR XMEGA devices with an integrated LCD controller and USB are available in production quantities in 64- and 100-pin TQFP packages. Pricing for 10,000-piece quantities follow:

    --  ATxmega64B1 - $2.90 USD
    --  ATxmega128B1 - $3.10 USD
    --  ATxmega64B3 - $2.70 USD
    --  ATxmega128B3 - $2.90 USD

The XMEGA-B1 Xplained evaluation kit is also available for USD $29. The XMEGA-B1 Xplained kit is a complete reference design demonstrating the LCD, USB and the ultra-low power consumption of the AVR XMEGA B devices. The kit comes pre-loaded with software, is fully supported by Atmel AVR Software Framework and Atmel AVR Studio, and is easily reprogrammable with no additional tools. To purchase an evaluation kit, please go to the Atmel Store at http://store.atmel.com.

Traffix Announces Enhancements in its Diameter Edge Agent (DEA) for Tighter Security and Improved Performance in Roaming, Billing and 3rd Party Use Cases

An Integral Part of the Traffix Signaling Delivery Controller (SDC), a Single Platform for all the Diameter Signaling Solutions Required for Reliable, Top Performance Networks

4G World, CHICAGO, October 24, 2011/PRNewswire/ --

    Traffix Systems, the Diameter control plane experts, today announced
significant enhancements in its Diameter Edge Agent (DEA) that extend its
capabilities in network signaling for tighter security and normalized
functionality in roaming, billing and third party content scenarios.

    The Traffix DEA is an integral capability of the Traffix Signaling
Delivery Controller (SDC) routing solution, a single platform that provides
all signaling requirements for carriers. With its Diameter Gateway, Diameter
Load Balancer and Diameter Router solutions consolidated on one platform,
carriers are guaranteed cost-effective seamless connectivity, unlimited
scalability and simplified control to support subscribers' heavy and growing
use of mobile broadband data.

    The Traffix DEA is enhanced with the following:

   
    - Normalization engine ensuring that only supported AVPs
      (attribute-value pair) and content enter the network
    - High security and failover protection by masquerading the
      network to prevent unauthorized access by ensuring that external
      sessions are routed according to policies set by the service provider
    - Guaranteed accuracy of incoming and outgoing messages with
      mechanisms to either fix or reject the message if the message presents a
      problem
    - Network protection from both overload and draining the network's
      resources
    - Prevention of outgoing messages from content that exposes the
      network
    - Improved Diameter policy rule engine that makes decisions on an
      unlimited number of AVPs based on destination, origin, location, QoS,
      rating, vendor or any other information or any combination thereof
    - Full compliance with GSMA's IR.88 requirements for LTE roaming
      guidelines
    - Support of IPsec and/or TLS security
    - Key KPIs based on unique visibility of all Diameter signaling
      information entering or leaving the network

    "These are critical routing enhancements that will support the
realization of LTE. For example, the extra security will enable service
providers to work freely with third party roaming partners and share
resources securely," commented Joe McGarvey, Principal Analyst at Current
Analysis.

    "When our DEA is located on the edge of the network it works to protect
and normalize the flow of messages. For example, if a problem arises between
two networks' PCRFs - both networks are protected from overflow or failover
situations. It is truly a critical function in maintaining network
performance at the highest level," said Ben Volkow, CEO of Traffix. "These
latest enhancements definitely make our DEA the only one of this caliber
that is commercially available."

    About Traffix

    Traffix is the Diameter control plane expert since 2005 leading the
market with a range of Diameter products
[http://www.traffixsystems.com/sdc.html ] deployed at over 100 operators
worldwide. Traffix supports telecommunications service providers to build
