Overview
Ultra-Low-Power Bluetooth Dual-Mode RF Transceiver IP in TSMC 40nm Logic LP processes node, The Radio Support standards like Bluetooth Classic (BR/EDR), Bluetooth Low Energy, 802.15.4 PHY Layer (e.g. ZigBee), and is compliant with Bluetooth ® Core Spec. Version 5.2.
The IP integrates all the calibrations required for the radio operation in an SoC, and an optional modem and is divided into an analog/RF Hard IP consisting of the RX chain from LNA to ADC, the TX chain from DAC to TX PA, and the synthesizer, The digital soft IP consisting of an RF controller, and an optional BT modulator/demodulator.
This Dual-Mode RF IP delivers the lowest power consumption together with state-of-the-art performances (sensitivity, interference rejection) at a minimal cost. The IPs-integrated LDOs, fully programmable modem, and interfaces are optimized for easy integration into SoCs and compatible with leading BT Controllers.
