Antig (http://www.antig.com), as the fuel cell solution provider, had first came up with the unique and commercial viable SoC fuel cell module solution targeting the portable devices. The standardized module design and common communication protocols deployed enable quick adoption of new technology fuel cell to the applications. The three strategic partners: Nan Ya PCB, Syspotek, and AVC each took Antig's fuel cell module technology and integrated with their own expertise: Nan Ya PCB (www.nanyapcb.com.tw) the world leading PCB company, leverages its process and production capability into SoC fuel cell module mass production; Syspotek (www.syspotek.com) the professional IC design company utilizes its knowledge in IC and application interfacing in the energy management of the fuel cell system; AVC (www.avc.com.tw) the world top thermal solution company, incorporates its know-how into the Balance of Plant components in the fuel cell system.

Together the team fulfills a complete fuel cell system from key components to the entire system. The fuel cell application reference design for portable devices -- BEGINI, will be showcasing at IFA 2006, disclosing the fuel cell standardize and modular system components of BEGINI: Module Stack, EMS (Energy Management System), BOP (Balance of Plant), and Fuel Cartridge; the fuel cell reference design facilitates rapid adoption and optimization of fuel cell technology by the system/utility makers.
