Qualcomm Introduces Next-Generation Solution for a Better Bluetooth Experience
- Smaller, More Power-Efficient Design Provides Integration and Cost
Advantages for Handset Makers -
SAN DIEGO, May 28 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ — Qualcomm Incorporated
(Nasdaq: QCOM), a leading developer and innovator of advanced wireless
technologies and data solutions, today announced the latest addition to its
line of Bluetooth solutions which delivers an enhanced user experience and
significant advantages for handset manufacturers. Bluetooth technology
provides short-range wireless connectivity between handsets headsets and
other Bluetooth-enabled devices. Qualcomm’s new BTS4025(TM)
system-on-a-chip (SoC) — which is now sampling — offers full support for
the latest Bluetooth 2.1 + Enhanced Data Rate (EDR) specification, as well
as improved radio-frequency performance in a significantly smaller, more
power-efficient package than previous Bluetooth chips. The technology
innovations found in the BTS4025 SoC enable better Bluetooth performance,
which can now be more readily available in mid- to low-tier handsets
requiring lower costs and smaller form factor solutions.
“This new Bluetooth solution builds on the significant market traction
gained with our first-generation BTS4020 Bluetooth solution,” said Mike
Concannon, senior vice president of product management for Qualcomm CDMA
Technologies. “As one of the industry’s smallest and more power-efficient
Bluetooth devices, the BTS4025 SoC raises the bar in terms of mainstream
and entry-level handset performance.”
The BTS4025 SoC’s compact 3.2 x 2.9mm chip scale package is
significantly smaller than any comparable solution. The BTS4025 SoC
requires very few external components and can use the existing system
clock, allowing for both space savings and easy integration. The BTS4025
SoC extends battery life by reducing the stand-by current consumption by up
to 50 percent when the device is scanning for other Bluetooth devices. In
addition, the BTS4025 SoC enables up to +13 dBm transmit power through
efficient integration of a high- performance on-chip power amplifier. The
increased output power improves the connection reliability and range
between Bluetooth device pairs, such as handsets and headsets, to enhance
the end user experience.
Qualcomm’s BTS4025 SoC solution is optimized for interfacing with
certain Mobile Station Modem(TM) (MSM(TM)) chipsets and Qualcomm Single
Chip(TM) (QSC(TM)) solutions that provide the complete Bluetooth upper
layer stack and profiles, giving device manufacturing partners complete
turnkey Bluetooth solutions for mobile handsets. The first handsets using
the new chips should be available on the market later this year.
