BLE v5.0 RF PHY KGD & IP

Overview

A complete RF Transceiver (IP/die) for adding Bluetooth Low Energy v5.2 (2.4GHz) capability to any SoC with embedded MCU via a standard SPI interface.

Integrated BLE Link Layer enables data rates of 2Mbps for High Speed Bluetooth connectivity & Long Range for connection range of ~100 meters.

Standard SPI interface plus chip select & packet sync pins for interfacing to an MCU or SOC and accessing an integrated AES engine for data encryption/decryption. No external RAM, ROM or Flash is not required.

Low cost & simple upgrade to any embedded MCU system.
