Bluetooth Low Energy Subsystem IP

Overview

The BLE v6.0 Subsystem IP consists of an integrated Controller and Modem paired to a  proprietary RF on T22 ULL. It is ideally suited to ASIC developers or fabless semiconductor companies who want to add BLE functionality without the hassle of dealing with multiple IP vendors or design groups.​

BLE sensitivity of -101dBm is achievable at 1MBps, whilst transmit total power consumption lower than 9mW is achieved at +0dBm. The Scalable RFIP operates from voltages as low as 1.05V, with higher voltages needed to achieve transmit powers above +6dBm

Key Features

  • Ultra-low active and deep-sleep power consumption to enable multi-year battery life
  • High TX power and industry-leading RX sensitivity for reliable, longer-range BLE communications
  • Highly optimised Controller and Modem to minimise the gate count and associated die area

Applications

  • Wireless Sensing Networks
  • Connected Home, Smart Lighting and TV RCU
  • Asset Tags, Beacons and ‘Find my’ applications
  • Digital Key Solutions
  • Portable Medical and Fitness Devices
  • Building Automation and Security
  • Electronic Shelf Labelling
  • Tyre Pressure Monitoring Systems
