PCD8072x chips also offers internet call waiting, caller ID with colour displays. The PCD8072x chips are at the heart of the Nexperia 820 cordless phone system, which offers WiFi and Bluetooth.

Consumers can now enjoy Internet-based phone services away from their PC, providing them with added features and convenience in a phone that is also easy to use,” stated Ascalade Communications President, CEO and Chairman, Dr. Edmund Ho.
