Redpine's RS9110 SDIO based design is Wi-Fi CERTIFIEDT for Voice-Personal

San Jose, CA - July 23, 2008 - Redpine Signals, Inc., a leading developer of ultra
low power multi-standard OFDM and MIMO silicon-based solutions, today announced the
successful certification of its ultra low power Lite-FiT 802.11n SoC for
Voice-Personal, the Wi-Fi Alliance's newest certification program for ensuring the
delivery of good voice quality over a Wi-Fi link. Redpine's RS9110 Lite-FiT device
enables a new generation of Wi-Fi based VoIP phones that will make available the
advantages of 802.11n connectivity at a cost similar to or less than those that use
conventional 802.11b/g connectivity.

Voice over Wi-Fi is becoming increasingly popular as greater numbers of mobile
phones are getting equipped with Wi-Fi capability. Common Wi-Fi environments,
however, have a mix of voice and data traffic, where the available bandwidth needs
to be shared. The delivery of uniformly satisfactory quality of voice to the user in
these environments depends on the successful prioritization of voice communication
over data, audio or video traffic. Through the Voice-Personal certification program,
the RS9110 has proven that it meets strict performance level requirements for key
voice-related metrics, such as packet loss, latency and jitter.

\"Voice over Wi-Fi, both in consumer and enterprise applications, is an intriguing
and growing market opportunity. 802.11n, including 802.11n single stream, offers
increased network capacity and an enhanced user experience,\" said Victoria Fodale,
Manager, Market Data/Intelligence for In-Stat. \"When VoWiFi and 802.11n are combined
with ultra low power for battery operated mobile devices, mass market adoption
becomes very much a reality. The Wi-Fi Alliance Voice-Personal certification further
validates the anticipated market demand for a high-quality Voice over Wi-Fi
experience.\"

The RS9110, with breakthrough power consumption numbers, is designed for mobile and
handheld consumer devices with targeted Wi-Fi CERTIFIEDT functionality for
power-saving voice/video traffic (WMM®-Power Save)and for ease of establishing
secure connectivity (Wi-Fi Protected SetupT).The RS9110 incorporates a variety of
features that ease the integration of WLAN into VoIP platforms, including clock and
power management.

\"Redpine's Lite-Fi product family offers differentiating performance and power
advantages achieved through six years of research and backed by over 100 patents in
all relevant areas of architecture, signal processing, algorithms and low-power
implementation,\" said Mr. Venkat Mattela, Chief Executive Officer of Redpine Signals
Inc. \"With the WLAN spectrum becoming increasingly crowded, Wi-Fi based on 802.11n
will enable capacity to increase while maintaining and enhancing user experience in
the home, office, and public hotspot scenarios. By offering a product that is among
the first single-stream client products to be certified for the Wi-Fi 802.11n draft
2.0 standard as well as Voice-Personal, Redpine is pioneering the growth of the
voice-over-WiFi market -providing both a quality user experience as well as the
preservation of the 802.11n advantage in enterprise networks\" he said.

Wi-Fi CERTIFIEDT
Redpine's Lite-FiT solution is Wi-Fi CERTIFIED 802.11n draft 2.0 and Voice-Personal
by the Wi-Fi Alliance.

\"802.11n draft 2.0 is an advanced standard for delivering increased throughput,
improved range and Quality of Service (QoS) for enhanced multimedia capabilities. In
achieving Wi-Fi CERTIFIED for 802.11n draft 2.0, Redpine Signals has demonstrated
its commitment to ensuring industry interoperability and the best experience for
Wi-Fi users,\" said Wi-Fi Alliance executive director Edgar Figueroa.
