Ultra-low power consumption Bluetooth IP suite

This IP offering complements Mindtree's classic Bluetooth (Bluetooth 2.1+EDR and 3.0) and Dual Mode Bluetooth low-energy (4.0) suite of IPs.

The Bluelite IP suite will help the semiconductor manufacturers make a smooth transition to tap the opportunities in the Bluetooth low-energy market.

Bluetooth low-energy (4.0) is the latest specification from the Bluetooth SIG.

Its features, such as ultra-low power consumption, enhanced range and the ability to run for years on a coin-cell battery enable power-constrained devices such as sensors to connect to other Bluetooth devices.

Bluetooth low energy opens up opportunities in new markets such as health devices, sports and fitness equipment and watches while enabling new use cases in existing Bluetooth enabled products.

The Bluelite IP suite, comprising Software IP-stack and profiles and Silicon IP-baseband controller, digital Phy (Physical Layer) and RF, provides a complete single-mode Bluetooth low-energy solution.

The pre-integrated solution IPs for complete transceiver and connectivity chip are part of the roadmap.

The Bluelite IP suite is being demonstrated at the IP SoC Days event at Hsinchu, Taiwan, on 18-19 October.
