Overview

Audio streaming at the lowest power

The icyTRX-DM ultra-low-power RF transceiver IP is designed to meet 2.4 GHz standards like Bluetooth Classic (BR/EDR), Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), 802.15.4 PHY Layer (e.g. ZigBee), and proprietary standards.

icyTRX-DM IP targets by far the lowest power consumption together with state-of-the-art performances (sensitivity, interferers rejection) and with minimal cost.

Thanks to its built-in LDOs, its fully programmable modem and its interface compatible with leading BT baseband controllers, the icyTRX-DM IP is optimized for easy integration into ASICs and SoCs

Key specifications

  • 22 nm CMOS
  • Industrial temperature range: -40°C to +85°C
  • Average power consumption for stereo audio streaming: 1.1 mW (Bluetooth EDR) / 0.6 mW (BLE)
  • Best-in-class sensitivity: BLE -98 dBm; EDR -94 dBm
  • Configurable output power: -20 dBm to +10 dBm 

Key features

  • Bluetooth 5.3 Dual-Mode radio, including EDR and LE 2 Mbps to support both BT Classic audio and LE Audio
  • Long Range and Direction Finding (DF) BLE options
  • Flexible modem compatible with 802.15.4-2015 and other modulations (programmable pulse shape, data rate and modulation index)
  • Programmable packet handler, supporting several packet structures, including Link Layer functionalities thanks to hardware accelerators (CCM-AES, CRC,…)

HDT Bluetooth: the Next Step in High Quality Audio Streaming

Wireless audio (wireless earbuds, headphones and speakers) introduced us to a completely new level of listening convenience and freedom, prompting the rapid growth we are already seeing in this consumer segment (30% CAGR for wireless earbuds and 14% for wireless headphones). Now the race is on to further improve audio quality and capability in these devices.

Three Major Inflection Points for Sourcing Bluetooth Intellectual Property

Synopsys is now shipping support for Bluetooth® 5.4, the latest specification from the Bluetooth SIG (Special Interest Group). The enhancements in Bluetooth 5.4 will open additional markets and use cases. This is one of the many inflection points in the Bluetooth Low Energy market that will be discussed in this paper.
