Texas Instruments Qualifies a Bluetooth Low Energy Wireless Technology Controller on Highly-Integrated BlueLink 7.0 (BL6450-L) Solution
TI qualified a Bluetooth® low energy controller on TI’s highly-integrated BlueLink™ 7.0 (BL6450-L) solution which will lead to a family of solutions once full qualification is completed in 2Q 2010. The BlueLink 7.0 platform provides a complete hardware and software solution for Bluetooth and FM, enabling ease of design and expediting time to market for mobile device manufacturers. Leveraging TI’s DRP™ technology and 65-nm process technology, the BL6450 is the industry’s smallest Bluetooth and FM single-chip solution. This allows customers to realize cost and size savings due to significantly smaller numbers of:
- external components compared to discrete Bluetooth and FM solutions
- interfaces (for the FM function) compared to a discrete Bluetooth and FM solutions
The BL6450 BlueLink 7.0 single chip also incorporates TI’s Bluetooth/WLAN coexistence hardware and software solution, providing a collaborative interface with TI’s WiLink™ mobile WLAN solutions for optimal bandwidth. TI’s coexistence solution enables advanced usage scenarios such as VoIP over WLAN with Bluetooth Voice using a shared antenna…
