Spectrum Signal Processing Announces Three flexComm Design Wins

12/31/2002 - Spectrum Signal Processing Inc. (NASDAQ: SSPI / TSX: SSY), a leading provider of high performance wireless signal processing and packet-voice solutions, announced that it has secured three wireless design wins:

  • An American defense prime contractor will use Spectrum’s flexComm SDR-3000 software defined radio subsystem in one of its programs. This represents Spectrum’s first military communications (MILCOM) design win.
  • An American defense contractor will use Spectrum’s flexComm HCDR (High Channel Density Receiver) subsystem in an airborne platform for signals intelligence (SIGINT).
  • A foreign Ministry of Defense will standardize on the flexComm Barcelona-HS processing engine as the signal processing platform for all its SIGINT systems.

“We have now met our 2002 milestone of 12 design wins. The three design wins announced today demonstrate the success we are having in government wireless markets, such as SIGINT and MILCOM. Of particular note is our MILCOM design win, which validates the value proposition of the SDR-3000 in a new market segment for Spectrum,” stated Pascal Spothelfer, President and CEO of Spectrum. “We are effectively broadening our customer base and securing the wins needed to support our projected increases in future revenue. Once our customers approve more information for public release, we will provide details on each of these wins along with updates in 2003 as to how we are tracking against these wins with respect to revenue."

Each of these three wins meets Spectrum’s design win milestone criteria of US $3 million in projected revenue within the 2 years of receipt of the first purchase order. Spectrum has already received initial orders towards each of these design wins.
